This week in Texas Tech talk
The shows spent the week picking apart Texas Tech's ranking and defensive performance. After the win at Oregon State, hosts questioned whether the defense can hold up after losing key linemen, with concerns about run defense and yards allowed. There's also talk that Texas Tech might be overrated at No. 13 in the polls, especially considering a sluggish showing against a lower-level opponent the week before.
