10 Thoughts from Week 4 of the College Football Season
Texas Tech's big win over Utah makes the Red Raiders Big 12 favorites, Sonny Dykes rides out of the Iron Skillet victorious, North Texas is a CFP contender.
Eleven of the 13 FBS programs in Texas were in action during a pivotal Week 4 for the Lone Star State. Texas Tech’s big win on the road over Utah drew national headlines as the Red Raiders surge into the College Football Playoff discussion. Elsewhere, North Texas won another road game in overtime and TCU beat SMU in the final scheduled Battle for the Iron Skillet.
The FBS teams in Texas are now a combined 33-16 and seven of those losses are to fellow in-state FBS programs. Five of our teams – Texas A&M, Texas Tech, TCU, Houston, and Nort Texas – remain undefeated. That accounts for 16.66 percent of the undefeated teams remaining in the FBS ranks. We could have as many as four programs ranked in the AP Top 25 if the Horned Frogs creep in on Monday.
