First year Texas Tech coach Joey McGuire has had a successful NCAA Football betting season in Lubbock. Texas Tech is building a new culture after years of stagnation. Further, McGuire knows the state of Texas like the back of his hand. He continues upgrading the Red Raiders’ recruiting efforts. Now, Texas Tech will host its season finale against the Oklahoma Sooners. Oklahoma rookie head coach Brent Venables has been on a roller coaster ride. Oklahoma lost plenty of game-breaking talent when the previous coach Lincoln Riley bolted for USC. Venables is recruiting hard to make up the difference.
