Texas Tech football aims to use more personnel on offense — here's how - Lubbock Avalanche-Journal
Texas Tech football is about to get a lot more unpredictable on offense, planning to deploy a wider array of players in its formations this season.
The strategic shift signals a potential departure from the classic Air Raid identity many Red Raider fans associate with the program. Expect to see more tight ends and running backs lining up in diverse sets, moving beyond strictly four-wide receiver formations. This could mean bigger bodies helping block on Broadway or more short-yardage options for Behren Morton.
For Red Raider fans packing Jones AT&T Stadium, this means a more versatile and potentially explosive offense to cheer on. It suggests a commitment to adapting, aiming to overcome last season's struggles by diversifying their attack. This could translate into more dynamic plays, possibly leading to higher scoring drives that keep everyone from Tech Terrace tailgaters to alumni tuning in on Saturday afternoons on the edge of their seats.
This change could mark a significant evolution for the Red Raiders, reshaping how Lubbock watches its beloved college football team.
