LUBBOCK, TX — Texas Tech hosts the Baylor Bears for Homecoming at Jones AT&T Stadium this Saturday, October 19. Texas Tech Football released gameday information on Friday for fans attending the game.
If anyone is still looking for tickets, SeatGeek and the Texas Tech Athletics Ticket Office are the only authorized sources, and fans are advised to be cautious of potential counterfeit tickets from unauthorized third-party sources.
Those who already have tickets should wear red to support the Red Raiders on Saturday.
