While the Texas Tech Red Raiders are heading into the 2025 season with the goal of having an above average defense (and hopefully one of the best in the Big 12 this year), the Red Raiders are apparently going to have some work to do to impress some folks (and some defensive metrics).
Texas Tech doesn’t exactly have a reputation for producing competent defenses, which is understandable given the way some of the defenses in Lubbock have performed over the past couple decades. But with the amount of talent that Texas Tech was able to accumulate through the Transfer Portal this offseason, I figured the Red Raiders would rank a bit better than No.
