Texas Tech Hosts OU, W Virginia Back-To-Back

LUBBOCK  (AP) - Texas Tech's first two Big 12 home games next season are against Oklahoma and newcomer West Virginia.

The Red Raiders, who lost five straight games to close their first losing season since 1992, play the Sooners on Oct. 6 and the Mountaineers on Oct. 13.

They have another set of consecutive home conference games against Texas (Nov. 3) and Kansas (Nov. 10).

The Big 12 released its 10-team, round-robin schedule Tuesday after West Virginia settled a lawsuit with the Big East.

Texas Tech's league opener is Sept. 29 at Iowa State. The other Big 12 road games are TCU, the other newcomer, along with Kansas State and Oklahoma State. The Red Raiders play Baylor at Cowboys Stadium.

Tech opens the season Sept. 1 at home against Northwestern State.
