Texas Tech heads north today to see if they can be the first ones to get to 100 points on the Kansas defense.

Kansas is coming off a bye week which was closer than the score might indicate. Prior to that, KU fell by a 56-34 score to West Virginia. We currently live in an era of KU football where 22-point home losses are considered “progress” by some fans.

This next sentence also makes me sad: David Beaty is still in search of his second win over an FBS team.

Meanwhile, Texas Tech is coming off a 41-34 home loss to Oklahoma State. Coach Bro’s Red Raiders are off to a 3-1 start so far with wins over Arizona State and Houston, and in one of those games, they actually played defense!

Here are the essentials:

The Numbers

Texas Tech: 3-1, 0-0
