Texas Tech Preseason Ranking Breakdown | Texas Tech Red Raiders Football News

College football preseason rankings are heating up, with sites like CBS, ESPN, and The Athletic projecting all 138 FBS teams — but don’t take them as gospel. Anchoring bias and early hype can skew perceptions, and real-season surprises like injuries or tougher schedules often rewrite the narrative. Texas Tech’s standing? A mixed bag: CBS Sports has them at 8, The Athletic and NYT at 10, ESPN’s FPI at 10, USA Today and Myerberg at 12. TeamRankings’ simulations put them in the top eight, while Fox’s RJ Young and Athlon Sports also land them around 12. Expect wild swings — and wait for the field to tell the real story.
