Red Raiders Get First Road Win Against Iowa State: Live Game Updates
Texas Tech will take on the Iowa State Cyclones in a Week 12 conference clash that has bowl-game implications for the Red Raiders. A win here clinches bowl eligibility for Tech, which should be considered a big win in head coach Joey McGuire's first season.
Before they can think ahead to a potential bowl game, though, the Red Raiders will have to take care of business on the road against the Cyclones.
Tech will be led by senior quarterback Tyler Shough, who's set to make his third start of the year after missing most of the season with a shoulder injury. Shough led the Red Raiders to victory over Kansas last week, and they'll be counting on him to control the game again. He'll be looking to lift this Tech team above the .500 mark and into the bowl conversation.
This will be the last chance For Texas Tech to get a road win this season, as they're winless in 2022. Securing a victory at Iowa State would be a nice feather in the cap for McGuire heading into the offseason and it'll give the Red Raiders a chance to end the year on a winning streak.
