Kirk Herbstreit names Oregon among top performing teams with Week 2 win vs. Texas Tech
On the wildly popular ESPN College GameDay show that leads into the early action on Saturday mornings in the fall, there was only one person who picked against the Oregon Ducks when making predictions for their Week 2 game against the Texas Tech Red Raiders.
It was analyst Kirk Herbstreit.
So it makes sense that Herbstreit is making things right by announcing that Dan Lanning and the Ducks are one of his top-performing teams of the week following their thrilling 38-30 victory down in a hostile Lubbock environment.

The Biggest Surprises in College Football After Week 2
Oregon Defense Plays Huge Part in Ducks Success
Yes, Oregon put up 81 points in its Week 1 win over Portland State, but it also held the Vikings to just seven points and 200 total yards, including just 52 in the air. The opposition averaged just 2.6 yards per pass.
In Week 2, Oregon went on the road to face a Texas Tech team that lost Week 1 to Wyoming. The Ducks entered as slight 4.5-point favorites and led 18-13 at halftime, but their defense stepped up in a big way in the second half.
Oregon's secondary picked off Texas Tech quarterback Tyler Shough three times in the final two quarters.
The most electric play of the night came in the final minute, when Ducks linebacker Jeffrey Bassa picked off Shough and returned it 45 yards to the house to give Oregon a 38-30 lead:
Shough threw yet another interception on the Red Raiders' final possession of the game to put it on ice.
Oregon looks to be a contender inside the Pac-12 this season, and its defense will be a major reason why it wins some close contests.

It came down to the final seconds, but Oregon and head coach Dan Lanning found a way to dig out what appeared to be a growing hole against Joey McGuire and Texas Tech. Despite a valiant effort from Red Raiders QB (and former Oregon QB) Tyler Shough, it was Bo Nix's clutch offensive leadership and a timely 4th quarter pick six from Oregon LB Jeffrey Bassa that sealed the eight point win.

Anybody have a good streaming site... I just found out Fox and DISH are pulling the same garbage that ESPN-Disney and Comcast went through a week ago.
Sign up quick with Fubo.tv. Get a free trial week. Can quite afterwards. Showing on FOX. You can even record it. No matter when you record it, it will record whole game.

This is one of those games that make me so nervous. All the pressure seems to be on the Ducks, even tho it's TT facing an 0-2 start if they lose. Nice Hype video with the patched-in video of the old announcers Todd McKim and another. When was that from?
"This will be the third-ever matchup between the two teams, but it will be the first in over a quarter-century. The last matchup was the second leg of a home-and-home series in 1992 — the first leg came the year before. Oregon was victorious in both games, winning 28-13 in 1991 and 16-13 in 1992."

For what it's worth, Utah seemed to hold up ok in the heat at Waco earlier. Of course, they're a desert team but the temps of the turf were >137F! I'm delighted kickoff for this game in Lubbock is as late as it is. GO OREGON!
Waco was hotter with higher humidity when game was in session. Lubbock, TX game time temp will be 93 with 29% or less humidity. By 7pm will be 91, by 8pm 87, by 9pm 83 degrees.
The Texas Tech University new Matrix Helix synthetic turf system is far better turf than what was at Baylor. This will be the first time both teams will be playing on it.
