#42 Texas Tech Red Raiders: College Football 77 in 77
Yo ho yo ho! a pirate's life for me! For the Texas Tech Red Raiders a pirate's life consists of lots of passing, not a lot of running, and not a lot of defending.

Which is funny because the two teams they beat in those games … [Read more...] about Northwestern vs. Texas Tech: Brutally Honest Ticket City Bowl Preview
