Oregon State vs. #13 Texas Tech: How To Watch, Preview, Storylines - Sports Illustrated

No. 13 Texas Tech travels to Reser Stadium in Corvallis, Oregon, Saturday to face Oregon State, a team still looking for its first win of the season after falling to Houston last week.

The Red Raiders come in 1-0 and carry the betting favorite tag into a road environment that will look nothing like Jones AT&T Stadium. Oregon State enters at 0-0 in Pac-12 play and 0-1 overall. The Beavers get a new face on the sideline this weekend as JaMarcus Shephard makes his home debut as head coach.

Last season Texas Tech blew out Oregon State 45-14 in Lubbock, and the Beavers have not forgotten it. For a Red Raider fan base still riding high off a season-opening win, this game is a chance to prove the ranking is real against a team hunting revenge on its own turf. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. Eastern, 4:30 p.m. Pacific, with the game airing on CBS and available locally through The Varsity Network for anyone driving around Tech Terrace or the Depot District who wants it on the radio instead.

A road win in the Pacific Northwest would tell Big 12 opponents this Texas Tech team travels well, ranking or not.
