With their 39-33 win over top-ranked Texas, the Texas Tech Red Raiders (9-0) are the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl National Team of the Week for games during the weekend of Nov. 1.
Tech is the third Big 12 team to receive the honor, as Oklahoma State and Texas were named co-team recipients earlier this season.
Michael Crabtree hauled in 28-yard touchdown pass with one second left to lift the Red Raiders to their first-ever win vs. a No. 1-ranked team. Graham Harrell threw for 474 yards and two touchdowns, but Texas Tech had to rally after opening a 19-0 first-half lead.
The win extends Texas Tech's winning streak to 11 games and snaps a 5-game losing streak vs. Texas. It also gives the Red Raiders a 5-0 mark in conference play for the first time since 1953, when they were a member of the Border Conference.
The FWAA has named a national team of the week since the 2002 season. This is the fifth season that the award has been sponsored by the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl.
