In the fantasy football-like college atmosphere we live in, stats and points are a dime a dozen. Texas Tech fans know all too well that scoring 40 is great until your defense gives up 42 and you walk away with another frustrating loss.
The 2015 season was no different for the Red Raiders, but some underlying stats helped shape last season and should do the same this year. One of the most important aspects to focus on is third down conversions; winning time for football teams at all levels.
Last season, Texas Tech was the best offensive team in the nation on 3rd downs.
