The Cougars are coming of huge victories against Arizona and Rice, while The Red Raiders blew out Eastern Washington and Arizona State.
Texas Tech Red Raiders
Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury will face off against the team that started his coaching career. Kingsbury was at Houston in 2008-09 being an offensive assistant before getting the promotion of quarterbacks coach the following year.
Now he’s at the top of the pole as he’s worked his way up to his first head job with the Red Raiders. In his four seasons thus far, the head coach has yet to get more than nine wins as this year is promising.
With huge blowouts against Arizona State and Eastern Washington, they are ready for their first true test of the season. The Red Raiders are averaging 54 points per game.

They have lost six of their last eight road games as quarterback Nic Shimonek is ready to prove why he deserves the job. So far this season he passed for 927 yards and nine touchdowns with zero interceptions.
Houston Cougars
Like the Red Raiders, the Houston Cougars are looking to get to 3-0 with their second home victory in sight. The Cougars haven’t lost a home game since November of 2014 as they sure do love their home crowd.
It’s hard to win at this stadium as the Cougars really show their true colors. On the season thus far quarterback Kyle Allen is completing 86.2 percent of his passes for a mere 534 passing yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions.

Defensively, the Cougars are allowing a small nation best 9.5 points per game but allowing a high 306 yards per game.
