NO. 44: Texas Tech
COACH: Kliff Kingsbury
2014 RECORD: 4-8
PROJECTED 2015 RECORD: 8-5
CIRCLE THE DATE: Sept. 26 vs. TCU
WHY NO. 44: Only a handful of teams in the country have more returning starters than Tech’s 17. But is that a good thing coming off a 4-8 season? We will find out if Kingsbury is able to get back to the winning ways of his first season in Lubbock. Sophomore Patrick Mahomes replaced Davis Webb, who suffered a shoulder injury late in the season.
