Texas Tech-Baylor Set for 2:30 Kickoff in Arlington

LUBBOCK, Texas – Texas Tech and Baylor will kick off the October. 3 Texas Farm Bureau Shootout at 2:30 p.m. CT, the Big 12 Conference announced on Monday.

Turnover talk: Oklahoma State (3-0) and West Virginia (2-0) rank among the nation’s top four teams in turnover margin.

Fast-striking Frogs: No. 3 TCU has scored a first-quarter touchdown in 16 consecutive games heading into Saturday’s contest at Texas Tech.

While TCU is a top team in college football and is expected by many to make the CFP, Texas Tech enters this contest with some momentum. While able to score 27 points last season against the Horned Frogs’ defense, the Red Raiders could put up more this year.

To prove that, the Red Raiders will need to cut back one number that was detrimental in their loss to the Horned Frogs – the number 4.

Keep an eye out for TCU free safety Derrick Kindred.

In Tech’s last match up with the Horned Frogs, they had 6 penalties for a loss of 69 yards.

Former Texas Tech All-American linebacker Zach Thomas (1992-95) will be honored during Saturday’s game for his induction into the National Football Foundation Hall of Fame. TCU averages 599 total yards and 50 points a game, while Texas Tech is gaining 590 yards with 54 points a game.

Sure, the Red Raider quarterback will put up some impressive numbers.

“The only thing that’s going to stop us is ourselves”, Kaster says.
