The Murray State Racers are coming into the season playing in the Ohio Valley Conference. Murray State is coming in as part of the FCS schools and have in the past have ended up having some good runs, but still have not really been that strong of a team overall.
The Racers are coming here with a strong schedule that should be one that keeps the team competitive. The start against the Red Raiders, though, could definitely start the Murray State team off on the wrong foot coming into the season.
Texas Tech is heading to the game here after finishing the year with a 7-6 record last year. The Red Raiders in their last game last year were able to finish with a win in the Liberty Bowl by a score of 34-7.
