The 2OT: Why football teams win games

Did you know that the Texas Tech Red Raiders were the only school to have a winning record every year since joining the Big 12? That (obviously) came to an end in 2011. What changed? The coach? The players? Upon joining the Big 12, Spike Dykes remained coach for a few more seasons. He already had several winning seasons and even a conference title. He was quickly followed by Mike Leach who continued that winning streak until 2011. Then Tommy Tuberville came in. While he finished his first season as Texas Tech coach with a 8–5 record, it all went downhill from there.
