Happy Wednesday, Y’all !

If knowledge is power, then what kind of power do we have when it comes to understanding this version of Texas Tech Football?

One week in, what do we KNOW about Texas Tech? What can you definitively say you know about this team one week into the season?

We’ll take up that discussion tonight with y’all on The Daily Broadcast. Add in the Western Michigan appeal and whatever may or may not be happening in the SEC and it should be quite a show. We don’t stop there, as it is also Ask Coach Hyatt Wednesday. Get your questions ready for our mythical coach. You’ll get his Coach Speak answer and then the answer a coach would give you if they were allowed to speak their mind!

Join the show three different ways tonight when we go LIVE at 5:30 Central:

Texas Tech is nearly a four-touchdown favorite at Oregon State. The Red Raiders have to be sharp in pass D, though: New OSU QB Braden Atkinson, the 2025 Jerry Rice Award winner in the FCS, threw for 3,596 yards and 34 TDs last year & 376 yards last week. https://t.co/djHwYBocQt
