This will be a competition for the year that I'll keep track of. Prize is to be determined.
Over/Under: 8 snaps played by Behren Morton
Taylor Beades: UNDER. But barely, I'm thinking 7. Maybe some type of gadget play early on, the two three and outs late in the game.
Ben Golan: OVER. I expect Shough to play the first half, Tech will be up huge. Donovan will play most of the 3rd and Behren in the 4th. I predict both will play close to 20 snaps
Over/Under: 15.5 snaps played by Donovan Smith
Taylor Beadles: Under. I'm thinking 12 for Donovan, again, maybe a gadget play or two, but they are gonna want to save most of those.
Ben Golan: OVER. See above.
Who has more touches — Sarodorick v Tahj
Taylor Beadles: TAHJ. The snaps might be even or lean Thompson, but Tahj will demand the ball more.
Ben Golan: SARODORICK. Sarodorick will play more than Brooks, who was a bit dinged in fall camp. I don’t see them pushing Tahj too much, as they’ll need him healthy for UH.
Texas Tech points scored — 45
Taylor Beadles: OVER. I'm nervous here because of the last two seasons, but I'm thinking the Kittley offense will punish inferior teams like Kliff used to.
Ben Golan: OVER. The offensive staff’s been wearing 50 burger shirts all off-season, so that’s what I fully expect.
Murray State points scored — 13.5
Taylor Beadles: UNDER. They score 10. DeRuyter's unit keeps them confused and the DLine out athletes them.
Ben Golan: UNDER. Murray State’s offense is bad, I would take the U7.5 too
Total punts by Texas Tech — 2.5
Taylor Beades: OVER. 3, 2 of them during garbage time.
Ben Golan: UNDER.
Who plays more snaps — Jacob Rodriguez or Malik Dunlap
Taylor Beadles: RODRGIUEZ. This is a pure depth chart guess though, I'm not really sure what the secondary rotation will look like based on it.
Ben Golan: MALIK DUNLAP.
Total snaps played with more than 1 QB on the field — 0.5
Taylor Beadles. OVER. Give Houston something to think about.
Ben Golan: UNDER. No need to show their hand against an overmatched opponent.
Percentage of student section still at the game at the start of the 4th quarter — 60%
Taylor Beadles: WAY UNDER. Unfortunately, score doesn't seem to matter here. They'll come around though.
Ben Golan: WHO THE HELL KNOWS.
