Texas Tech is expected to snap a four-game losing streak on Saturday against Baylor in the schools’ annual game at AT&T Stadium in Arlington.
That will do nothing to free coach Kliff Kingsbury from the pressure cooker he finds himself in with three games to go in the regular season.
It’s expected, though no certainty at this point, that the Red Raiders will begin anew next year with a new coach.
If it comes to that, it would be a difficult decision for Tech, and not simply because of the $6.7 million it would take to buy out the last three years of Kingsbury’s contract.
