The opening act to Saturday’s Texas Tech-Texas skirmish is the pre-game ceremony for 13 Red Raiders seniors.
One of those is linebacker Malik Jenkins. I’ll be sorry to see Jenkins’ college career come to an end soon, because he’s an affable, entertaining interview subject. Tech fans should be sorry to see him go because he’s played two of his best games in the past two weeks, getting credit for a career-high 14 tackles against Oklahoma and then matching that total at TCU.
Not to make too much of that; after all, Oklahoma scored 66 points that night, and TCU’s been struggling on offense.
