If Texas Tech wants to make it to a bowl game or improve at all really it's not the offense that needs to have a monster season. No doubt, a dynamic year
There s a disconnect somewhere with Texas Tech football. If Tyler Shough can elevate the quarterback position and the offensive line improves with TJ Storment manning the blindside Texas Tech s offense should improve. That s with repeat efforts from SaRodorick Thompson, Erik Ezukanma and Dawson Deaton controlling the interior of the offensive line.
Those aren t outrageous expectations either. Every one of those players is listed on numerous preseason All-Big 12 teams. Add in Special Teams weapon Austin McNamara and the offense and special teams look like a credible Big 12 team.
So why are the Red Raiders ranked 9th in the preseason Big 12 poll?
