Masters of the Air Raid: A Texas Tech Dynasty (NCAA Football 14)

[RedRaider10]

Welcome to my new dynasty! I will be playing as the Texas Tech Red Raiders and will try to build them into a consistent Big 12 contender. (Special thanks to TheSportsGuru11 for the banner!)

Recent History

Texas Tech has more or less always been a middle of the pack team in the Big 12, they have never won a Big 12 championship and the closest they've got in the last decade was a 3-way tie in the Big 12 South during the 2008 season. Despite this, Texas Tech had 14 straight winning seasons from 1996-2011. That streak ended in the second year of Tommy Tuberville as the head coach. Tech fans prefer not to talk about the 3 seasons that he was in town. After Tuberville left for Cincinnati, Tech hired their former QB, Kliff Kingsbury as the new head coach. Kingsbury became the first Tech head coach to win his first 7 games and then he lost his next 5. Tech pulled an upset of the #14 Arizona State Sun Devils in the Holiday Bowl behind a great performance by true freshman QB, Davis Webb.
Going into 2014 Tech fans had high hopes for their team, hopes that were nearly destroyed in weeks 1 and 2, where the Red Raiders won by a combined 11 points over Central Arkansas and UTEP. Behind poor play from Davis Webb and a young, inexperienced defense, Tech had their worst season in over 2 decades.

2015 Bright Spots

Not all things in the 2014 season were bad, freshman QB Patrick Mahomes lit up the field in his 3 starts at the end of the year, HB DeAndre Washington became the first 1,000 yard rusher since the Pre-Mike Leach era. On defense, the youth is still there but now it is experienced. LB Pete Robertson led the Big 12 in sacks with 12.
