We’ve seen this script play out time and time again in recent years. The Texas Tech football team plays poorly out of the gate, falls behind, rallies and gives the home fans hope, but can’t make the critical plays down to stretch to drop a close game.
Saturday night followed that same formula as the Red Raiders lost to Kansas State 30-27 in Lubbock to drop to 4-7 overall and end any hopes of a bowl bid. This was the team’s fifth loss since beating Oklahoma State at home on October 5th and four of those games have been decided by three points or less.
