After reading our review of the 2017 Texas Tech loss to Oklahoma State, one of our readers, Robert Powell (@RPTexas) said that the game against the Cowboys was one Tech “could have” won as opposed to being one Tech “should have” won. Two weeks later, the Red Raiders found a way to lose a road game against West Virginia that they most certainly should have won.
Leading 35-17, Tech was outscored 29-0 over the final 24 minutes of the game losing 46-35 in a game that the Red Raiders led until the 9:14 mark of the 4th-quarter.
