Texas Tech football: For this flawed team to win, Jett Duffey has to be perfect

In Saturday’s 33-31 loss to TCU, there was really only one reason the Texas Tech football team was able to make the contest interesting after falling behind 17-0 and 24-3 in the first half…Jett Duffey. The junior QB was as good as anyone could ask their Qb to be and still it wasn’t enough.

For the game, Duffey was 19-33 for 333 yards and 4 touchdown passes. He also ran for a team-high 42 yards on 9 attempts. Thus, he accounted for 375 of the team’s 402 total yards. It’s hard to remember a Tech QB not named Pat Mahomes being asked to do so much for his team.
