Well, it's always great to go out to Lubbock, Texas, and be joined by a friend of the show, Jared Johnson.

He does a great job as the publisher of Inside the Red Raiders.com, everything you need.

When it comes to Texas Tech, you can find on that website.

I'm Pete Mundo, of course, Heartland College Sports.com.

We cover the Big 12 conference from top to bottom.

And the Big 12 gets conference play

underway this weekend.

We had that one game last week, TCU Houston, but really it starts this weekend.

And when you look at this weekend, one of the most intriguing games of the weekend is Texas

Tech and West Virginia.

Two teams that, you know, you look at and you

say to yourself, okay, I'm not quite sure what they are. Texas Tech was a team. A lot of us

would thought would compete for a, well, Big 12 championship, but they're one and two.

They lost the opener to Texas, not Texas State. They lost the opening to Wyoming.

Baylor lost to Texas State.

There's been so many bad Big 12 losses.

You can't keep track of them at this point.

And then, of course, they lost to Oregon in week two.

They got a win last week.

So, Jared, welcome in.

Thanks for being here.

I just asked you off air.
