There are all sorts of high expectations for what success will look like being placed on Joey McGuire and the Texas Tech Red Raiders football team heading into this season. We’re talking about some folks expecting the Red Raiders to have a shot at competing in the Big 12 championship game and making it into the College Football Playoff.
But that’s not what Erick Smith over at USA Today is expecting for the Texas Tech football team. For one reason or another, he seems to be expecting the opposite for McGuire and the Red Raiders.
Now, I’m not saying that Smith is wrong or that he absolutely has to have the Red Raiders in the College Football Playoff or anything along those lines.
