Written by Chris Cook
Texas Tech renews acquaintances with a former Southwest Conference foe, begins a new series with another and faces a formidable Big 12 Conference slate on the 2007 Red Raider Football schedule.
The Red Raiders play six games at home and six on the road next season. Texas Tech opens the season on the road at SMU on Sept. 1. This is the first game of a new four-year contract, which will feature home games on alternating years. The second game of a two-year deal with UTEP takes place in the home opener on Sept. 8, while a new two-year agreement with former SWC foe Rice begins in Houston on Sept. 15. The Owls will come to Jones AT&T Stadium in 2008.
2007 Schedule Notes
- Rice appears on the schedule for the first time since 1995
- Three home games in October are the most since the 1998 season.
- UTEP comes to Lubbock for the second of a two-game contract.
- Back-to-back road games in November are a first since 2003.
- Five of the teams were at one point ranked among the top 25 in 2006.
