Tech football notes: Murphy's injury leads to issues for offensive line
Baylor corner back Xavien Howard avoids being tackled after catching an interception against Texas Tech quarterback Patrick Mahomes during the Red Raiders' 63-35 loss against Baylor University on Saturday, October 3, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. (Brad Tollefson/For the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal)Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said starting right guard Justin Murphy won’t play this week because of the knee injury he suffered Saturday, and there could be a three-man competition to replace him.
Redshirt freshman Robert Castaneda and senior Emeka Okafor will be in the mix along with senior Tony Morales, Kingsbury said Monday.
