There might not be a fan base in the Big 12 more excited about the 2025 season than folks in Lubbock, Texas.
Texas Tech continues to church out winning seasons under Joey McGuire, and after the 2024 campaign, the Red Raiders’ went big-game hunting in the transfer portal. After hauling in one of the best transfer classes in America, TTU feels primed to take the long-awaited leap in 2025.
Here’s a look at the schedule they’ll have to navigate.

Schedule Breakdown
One of the biggest issues with a team that is heavily relient on transfers is a lack of cohesion early in the season. However, that shouldn’t be an issue for Texas Tech, as they’ll start the year off with three games that they should win handily before taking their first road trip to Utah in Week 4.
How this team fares on the road will determine whether they’ll make a Big 12 title run, as road trips to Utah, Arizona State, Kansas State, and West Virginia won’t beat easy. On the flip side, the Red Raiders should be favored in all seven home games and outside of BYU in early November, they should be favored by a decent margin.
This schedule has 10-2 or better written all over it, but playing seven consecutive weeks of football without a bye week might be tricky. If TTU can take care of business in the games that it should win, there’s no reason why they can’t finally break through and push for a Big 12 title.
