The No. 2 Red Raiders can clinch their first Big 12 South Division title and take another big step toward a BCS berth Saturday when they visit No. 5 Oklahoma. The game will be aired on ABC at 8:00 PM EST on Saturtday, November 22.
Texas Tech is coming off a bye week, so they’ll be rested and ready for this game. The players and the fans all know what’s at stake with this game, but they’re not letting the media know it.
“I’m thinking about OU, that’s what I’m thinking about,” Crabtree said, dismissing the bigger BCS picture. “We take it one game at a time. It’s been working so far and I think I’m going to stay with that scheme.”
Michael Crabtree has scored a touchdown in every game this year, giving him 18 total. Everyone knows that Grahama Harrell is going to air it out on Saturday, and he will be looking for Crabtree. I’d expect Crabtree to bring in 9 catches for 115 yards and two touchdowns.
The Red Raiders are going to win this game. They have the better offense and a comparable defense. They’re last two wins came against Texas and Oklahoma State. They know how to play and win in the big games.
