Joey McGuire and the Texas Tech Red Raiders should be thoroughly impressed with the way their defense looks so dang dominant to get the season started. Through the first four games of the season, the Red Raiders (led by new defensive coordinator Shiel Wood) have completely changed the way they play on that side of the ball.
It’s crazy! As we enter week 6 of the 2025 college football season, the Red Raiders have the top-ranked run defense in the Big 12 when looking at rushing yards allowed per game. That’s an incredible improvement from what we saw out of Texas Tech a season ago.
