Line shakeup
Texas Tech senior Baylen Brown made his 34th career start, but his first at left tackle, in the Red Raiders’ loss Saturday at Iowa State.
The Red Raiders juggled the offensive line. True freshman Terence Steele went to right tackle after starting the first 10 games at left tackle. Bailey Smith, who played most of the previous week’s game at right guard, moved to left guard for his first career start Saturday.
“We just thought that was our best option,” Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said. “Terence felt more comfortable at right tackle. With (Justin) Murphy no longer paying, we thought that was our best fit.
