Tech has 8 games left, 4 home and 4 away. Raider are currently 6-4.
What if...Tech wins their home games and beats teams below them on the road?
That means Tech will beat Baylor, Kansas, Texas, TCU, OSU twice, and OU.
That puts Tech at 13-4. It puts Baylor at 4 losses, so at best for the Bears a tie with Tech. It puts Kansas at 5 losses and out of the picture. Texas and TCU at 6 losses, OU at 8 losses, and OSU at 9 losses.
It leaves Tech at 13-4 with a game to play at Iowa State. I don't know where KSU or ISU will be at this time, but they play each other on February 16 in Manhattan. One of those teams is going to fall toward Tech.
