Defensive Player of the Week: A star shines in the secondary
The defensive player of the week title is a tough one this week. Several guys made some big plays. Guys like Rodriguez were consistently making UCF pay with big hits, Bradford continues to be a menace, and the young gun Roberts gets better every week.

Offensive Player of the Week: Could there be any other?
At this point, this award is just going to be the Tahj Brooks Award. Seriously, I would love for someone else to take the crown. But really? Can anyone make a case that Brooks was not once again the primary engine of this offense? And can anyone make a solid case for anyone else deserving… read more

Texas Tech Soccer Hosts Second Round
The Red Raiders are still alive in the dance, as they managed to get past an extremely scrappy FGCU team 1-0. One of the rewards for the two seeded Red Raiders was the ability to host the first round at home, where 1,800 Red Raiders showed up to cheer for the ladies. With the win… read more

Bowl Eligibility helps Texas Tech continue to grow
Look, I hate that I have to write this article. I hate that the lofty goals of the year have come down to this point. But here we are, so time to just accept the results and start looking at reality. Texas Tech is now 15 years removed from the 2008 magical season. Since that… read more

Defensive Player of The Week: A Rabbit thrives hunting Jayhawks
The defense did not have their best game, but they sure stepped up when it counted most. And our player of the week, is none other than our resident Rabbit Dadrion Taylor-Demerson. Rabbit has a nose for the football, as shown by another game with an interception. And what a hell of an interception it… read more

Offensive Player of the Week: A workhorse continues to thrive
The offense overall did not have a flashy day, though a few flashy couple plays by Bradley really changed the outcome in a major way. But, in a day like that only one person could possibly earn player of the week honors. I of course refer to Tahj “Workhorse” Brooks. Brooks had 33 carries in… read more
