For one reason or another, the folks voting on the AP poll didn’t seem to like the way the Texas Tech Red Raiders effortlessly crushed Arkansas-Pine Bluff in week 1. I don’t know why the AP Poll voters didn’t seem to like the start to the 2025 Texas Tech football season, all I know is the Red Raiders moved down (not just in ranking, but also in the points allocated via votes).
And that doesn’t feel great!
I mean, I know it’s not the end of the world, but Texas Tech did exactly what it was supposed to do to start the season and the Red Raiders lost ground in the AP Poll because of that.
