SATURDAY STORYLINES

(National Ranking/Big 12 Ranking)

TECH LOOKS TO BUILD OFF OSU VICTORY Fresh off a 45-35 victory over No. 21 Oklahoma State this past weekend, Texas Tech returns to the road Saturday to face No. 22 Baylor in a 3 p.m. kickoff at McLane Stadium in Waco. This will be Texas Tech’s first visit to Waco since 2007 as the Texas Farm Bureau Shootout was previously held in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex in each of the past 10 seasons. n The Red Raiders are a perfect 6-0 against the Bears in Waco during the Big 12 era as Texas Tech is averaging 33.3 points as its margin of victory during that span. This will be the first time Texas Tech has gone on the road to face a ranked Baylor team since 1991 when Tech departed Waco with a 31-24 victory over the No. 20 Bears. n

ANOTHER WEEK, ANOTHER TOP-25 FOE Baylor represents the third top-25 opponent for the Red Raiders in as many weeks, marking the first time Texas Tech has ever opened Big 12 play against three-conecutive ranked foes. The Red Raiders are coming off a 4535 victory over then-No. 21 Oklahoma State this past weekend, their first win over a ranked foe at home since the 2013 campaign. n Texas Tech will be looking for wins over ranked opponents in consecutive games for the first time since 2012 when the Red Raiders delivered a 49-14 rout to No. 4 West Virginia at home and then went on the road to top No. 21 TCU, 56-53, in triple overtime. n

Jordyn Brooks and Douglas Coleman III combined for a strong performance in the Oklahoma State victory as Coleman picked off a pair of passes, while Brooks totaled 19 tackles, three sacks and four tackles for a loss to go along with a forced fumble. n The two seniors enter this weekend among the national leaders as Coleman leads the FBS with five interceptions this season, all of which have come in the past three games. Brooks, meanwhile, leads the Big 12 and ranks fourth nationally in total tackles per game after averaging 12.0 through five games this season. n

HONORING TWO LEGENDS

Texas Tech will honor the memory of two of its all-time greats the remainder this season in College Football Hall of Famers and Ring of Honor members Dave Parks and E.J. Holub. Parks passed away Aug. 8 at the age of 77, while Holub passed Sept. 21 at the age of 81. Texas Tech will wear two special helmet decals for both legends throughout the remainder of the 2019 football season.

WE, US & OUR PROGRAM Since his hire last November, Matt Wells has emphasized that the Red Raider football program will be a “We, Us and Our Program.” “This is a We, Us and Our Program. I’ve said it from day one it’s not about me, it’s not about the starting linebacker, running back or one coordinator or one fan. It’s the power of what we can do together. We’re not an offensive unit. We’re not a defensive unit. We’re a team. We’re Red Raiders. It’s the culture we are creating in this program. We need the passion of Red Raider Nation to make Jones AT&T Stadium the toughest place to play in the Big 12 Conference. We have to do it together.” - Matt Wells #WreckEm
