WVU Football
The Definitive Ranking of West Virginia Football’s 2019 Opponents
No. 9: Texas Tech Red Raiders (11/9)

Although the series has been pretty one-sided since the Mountaineers have joined the Big 12, West Virginia and Texas Tech have played some fun games throughout the years.
Texas Tech will continue our theme here of first-year head coaches after the hiring of Matt Wells from Utah State. Former head coach Kliff Kingsbury was fired in the off-season. (Somehow, he is now the head coach of the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals. Go figure.)
Much of the college football media (including myself) really questioned the Wells hire, and it may not have the best of starts. The offense may be in flux for the first few weeks of conference play, and by the time the players and coaches work it all out it, the Red Raiders may have already missed their shot at a bowl game.
Wells, like Kingsbury, is known for his offense, but this offense may not be humming even in early November.
