What to expect: Defense vs. K State

On Saturday, Texas Tech takes on Kansas State at 11:00 a.m. at Jones AT&T Stadium looking to gain bowl eligibility for the first time in the Matt Wells era.

Standing in the way this week, is Skylar Thompson and Deuce Vaughn.

I’ll lay it right out on the line for you folks. If Tech does not put more than five guys in the box to stop the run, you can expect a similar defensive performance as TCU and Texas.

I personally think Skylar Thompson has a better arm than Max Duggan but isn’t quite as fast, so you also have to game plan a bit around the pass as well.
