Matador Mailbag: Another Ranked Opponent on the Horizon

Tough start to the two-game road stretch against ranked opponents as Texas Tech fell short against Kansas State 37-28. Their next opponent? #7 Oklahoma State. Let’s see what you had to say heading into another tough matchup.

How do you explain the scores on opening drives?

I see it as a non-issue right now. We’ve allowed them the past two games but in our first two we held strong, so it’s not a season-long worry. That being said, it doesn’t hurt to try and make an early stand on defense and set the offense up for a chance to get the lead or maintain one.
