Next up for the Cats is Texas Tech. The last time the Cats beat the Red Raiders in Manhattan was 2000, the 4th year seniors on this team were 10 years old. Stay motivated Cats, stay motivated.

The preseason polls indicate the Cats will finish with a record of 10-2 with losses on the road to WVU and OU. The weekly polls last year were not as accurate as the preseason polls, it would be interesting to track the voting by 'primary' team during the course of the season.
I decided to omit the stats this week because I'm not sure they add anything. Use cfbstats.com if you need stats.
