The eyes of the college football universe will be on Lubbock, Texas this week as the No. 8 BYU Cougars take on the No. 9 Texas Tech Red Raiders.
This is not hyperbole: This week’s contest at Texas Tech is the second most significant game in BYU history, trailing only the 1984 Holiday Bowl to secure the consensus national championship. No. 7 BYU is 8-0 while No. 8 Texas Tech is 8-1.
This is the only matchup between two Top 10 teams in the country this week.
