In a matchup with the SMU Mustangs, Texas Tech’s sophomore wideout, Michael Crabtree, had yet another ridiculous showing as the Red Raiders’ main go-to target downfield. Crabtree had eight catches for 164 yards and three touchdowns. Texas Tech’s 43-7 victory helped propel them two spots into the top ten of the USA Today Coaches’ Poll.
SMU head coach June Jones had this to say about Michael Crabtree: “He’s a big time player, but like I said, I was proud of our defense. He’s going to get that on a lot of people. But we made enough plays on defense; we stopped him, stopped the ball. We did enough things to keep the game interesting, at least.”
So you stopped him, huh? And you’re proud of your defense that gave up touchdowns of 20+ and 40+ yards to Crabtree… all in the first half?
The truth is, no one can stop him. Crabtree is the best WR in the NCAA and is going to shred defenses like it’s nobody’s business.
