Another week in the Big 12 brings another swing in emotions for Texas Tech football fans. After seeing a vocal but small portion of the fan base denounce the Matt Wells hire as a failure following last week’s non-competitive loss to Oklahoma in Norman, all is right in West Texas after the Red Raiders 45-35 win over No. 21 Oklahoma State on Saturday.
What that faction of the fandom expected to see take place in Norman remains a mystery. That’s because the 55-16 loss played out like it should have given the talent on the two rosters.
Still, football lends itself to overreaction like no other sport.
