The Red Raiders will end their season with a bang! After steamrolling West Virginia 52-15 in the season finale, Texas Tech is riding high. Their résumé sparkles with wins over No. 10 Arizona State (by 8 points) and No. 19 Iowa State (by a single point). QB Tyler Shough has been slinging it with precision, and the Red Raiders offense has proven it can light up the scoreboard faster than a Memphis barbecue grill on game day.
The Razorbacks' season has been up and down. Closing out the regular season with a 28-21 road loss to Missouri, Arkansas has struggled to maintain consistency. They dropped three of their last four games, including losses to powerhouses like No. 4 Texas and No. 15 Ole Miss.
When the Razorbacks are on, their defense can stifle even the most potent offenses. The question is, can they rediscover that magic in Memphis?
Key Matchup: Texas Tech's Offense vs. Arkansas' Defense
This game pits Texas Tech's high-octane offense against Arkansas' scrappy, bend-but-don't-break defense. The Red Raiders average 36 points per game and thrive on big plays, while the Razorbacks have been stout in the red zone when they're on their game. If Arkansas can slow the tempo and force Texas Tech into mistakes, they'll have a shot at the Liberty Bowl trophy.
