Scouting Texas Tech

2026 Record: 8-1, 5-1 Big 12

Best player: Running back J'Koby Williams is a big play threat. He has rushed for at least 160 yards in three of his past four games and has runs of more than 40 yards in each contest. Williams is No. 4 in the Big 12 with 954 rushing yards.

The case for Texas Tech: The Red Raiders have the offense and experience to win an old-fashioned Big 12 shootout, which Saturday's game could be. They are coming off a 53-48 against win West Virginia. The defense has problems, but has proven it can come up with game-winning plays to secure victory.

The case for OSU: Quarterback Drew Mestemaker and the Cowboy offense should be able to score a lot against an average Red Raider defense. This is a weaker Texas Tech compared to the team that won the Big 12 Championship last season. Texas Tech has escaped with one-score wins against Houston, Arizona and West Virginia. At home, where OSU is 4-0 this season, and under the lights of Boone Pickens Stadium this will be an environment that favors the Cowboys.
