I suspect the bye week was good for Texas Tech. I think Joey McGuire and the Red Raiders likely needed a little bit of rest. Their first four games were pretty busy with scoring a bunch of points and beating teams by rather large margins and such. A little bit of breathing room never hurt anyone.
But now, in Week 6, the Red Raiders will get back to business. Texas Tech will face off with an unbeaten Houston Cougars team in the Bayou City this weekend. And while Houston isn’t ranked in either the AP Poll or the Coaches Poll, the fact that they’re 4-0 at this point in the season is something worth acknowledging.
