The nation will get another look at Dana Holgersen’s high-powered offense, led by quarterback Geno Smith. West Virginia’s wins this season have come against Marshall, James Madison, Maryland, Baylor and the Longhorns last week.
Texas Tech took its first loss of the season in a 41-20 defeat at the hands of Oklahoma. Before Saturday’s loss, the Red Raiders beat FCS Northwestern State, Texas State, New Mexico and Iowa State.
Smith and the West Virginia offense visiting Lubbock is an interesting storyline, considering Holgersen is from the Mike Leach coaching tree, and what Red Raider fans can expect to see on Saturday is going to look eerily familiar.
Game time, TV channel: 3 p.m. ET, ABC
Point spread: West Virginia is a four-point favorite over Texas Tech, according to the odds-makers.
