Opponent Depth Chart: Texas Tech Red Raiders

In this story:
Last year, TCU fell to Texas Tech 35-28. TCU made the game close, scoring 21 second-half points, but fell just short in the end. In last year's loss, Tahj Brooks dominated the Horned Frogs defense accounting for 146 yards with a touchdown. The good news is that Texas Tech visits Fort Worth for this year's Big 12 matchup. The bad news is that Brooks got even better.
While we can focus on Brooks the whole time, there are other names to be wary of on the Raiders roster. Texas Tech has X-factors all over the field despite losing some defensive players early in the season. Here's the current depth chart for Texas Tech ahead of this Saturday's Big 12 matchup.

Texas Tech Depth Chart Notes
Believe it or not, one of the more notable factors outside of Texas Tech's starting rotation is Micah Hudson. While he hasn't made a huge impact so far this season, fans have been begging to see more of the true freshman on the field. Outside of their starting 11 on offense, there aren't many athletes who have gotten opportunities in game situations.
On the defensive side, linebackers Jacob Rodriguez and Ben Roberts are players to watch. Both have over 50 total tackles on the season with 4 tackles for a loss. Be on the lookout for these guys to make themselves known quickly when TCU attempts to run the ball.
