It had been a long time since we’d seen the Texas Tech football team and TCU engage in a typical Big 12 offensive shootout. But that’s what transpired on Saturday in Lubbock.
In recent years, this series had become decidedly physical and defensively orientated. In fact, it had been four years since we had seen Tech put up at least 30 points on the Frogs.
The last time the Red Raider offense really went nuts against a Gary Patterson defense was in 2015. That year, Pat Mahomes threw for 392 yards and DeAndre Washington ran for 188 in a gut-wrenching 55-52 last-minute TCU win in Lubbock.
