Close games have become a way of life for the Texas Tech football program in recent years But unfortunately, the majority of those games have turned into defeats.
Since the start of the Kliff Kinsbury era in 2013, Tech is just 13-17 in games decided by seven points or less. And of those 13 wins, two came against FCS opponents Central Arkansas and Houston Baptist while another came against lowly UTEP.
