Oklahoma State vs Texas Tech Game Preview

Why Texas Tech Will Win

The passing game has been fantastic.

It’s different than the Texas Tech offense you might be used to from the past, but the O is throwing for a Big 12-leading 362 yards per game and it should be able to keep up the pace.

Oklahoma State might be rolling, but it struggled late against the Central Michigan passing attack – to be fair, the game was effectively over – and last week it got bombed on by Baylor.

The yards will be there. Texas Tech QB Donovan Smith is playing well, and he’ll hit the 300-yard mark if he gets a little bit of time.

The Red Raider defense is good on third downs, it has been disruptive enough to stall the NC State attack and keep Texas and Houston from going off, but …

NFL Expert Picks, Week 5

Why Oklahoma State Will Win

The Texas Tech run defense is starting to buckle.

The offense might have been terrific over the last few weeks, but the defensive front was destroyed last week by Kansas State allowing almost nine yards per carry in the 37-28 loss, and Bijan Robinson and Texas rolled in the wild overtime Red Raider win.

Oklahoma State’s offense will hit a few downfield shots, but it’s more balanced and efficient than splashy. There aren’t any big negatives – the scoring is there and it all works hand-in-hand with the defense.

The O line is terrific in pass protection, the defense is a rock on third down conversions, and there the bunches of penalties or sloppy mistakes Texas Tech will need.

The secondary will give up plenty of yards, and then it’ll hold up when it has to because …

What’s Going To Happen

The Oklahoma State defensive front will live in the Texas Tech backfield.

QB Donovan Smith and the Red Raider offense keep on producing no matter what, but the Cowboys are generating three sacks and more than nine tackles for loss per game.

Texas Tech will allow five sacks, it’ll stall on a few early second half drives, and that’s when the steady Oklahoma State offense will take over. It’ll be another interesting game for both teams, and it’ll be another strong win for the Cowboys.

Why Texas Tech Will Win

What kind of shape is Oklahoma State in?

It was beaten up, battered, and bruised in the 41-13 loss to Oklahoma State with star RB Chuba Hubbard suffering through an ankle injury, and with QB Spencer Sanders getting banged up and not being able to come back in until late.

The offense has been struggling at times throughout the year, audit hasn’t hit 260 yards in either of the last two games – the passing game has ground down to a halt, partly because the offensive line is allowing way too many plays in the backfield.

Texas Tech’s secondary has had a world of problems, but it held TCU and Baylor to a combined 226 yards through the air. However …

Why Oklahoma State Will Win

Texas Tech has been able to win two of its last four games, but the offense has just plain stopped.

The idea of the Red Raiders struggling to get to 300 yards of total offense used to be unthinkable, but they haven’t hit 400 in four of the last five games and haven’t hit 300 yards passing in six games.

This isn’t your older brother’s Texas Tech team.

Oklahoma State’s defense is a whole lot stronger than it looked and played against Oklahoma. With one of the best and most active defensive fronts in the Big 12, the Cowboys are going to be disruptive enough to do their part.

CFN Experts Picks: College

What’s Going To Happen

There was a time not all that long ago when you’d set the point total at 75 and go from there.

Neither offense will go off, but the injured Oklahoma State attack will get just a bit more balance and a few more downfield shots. The defense will take care of the rest, holding the Red Raiders down with third down stop after third down stop.
