Here's what Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury and players had to say about the Red Raiders' 27-24 victory over Houston.
Kingsbury on the performance of the defense:
"It was a great effort. I said that on the field. I feel very proud for Coach Gibbs and Coach Spavital; they were the catalyst behind building the third-ward defense. They had led the country in takeaways and things of that nature. They came to us and have that sort of performance, it's awesome I'm very excited for those two guys. I'm excited for our defense, they played their tails off, and won us the game.
