Texas Tech versus Sam Houston Preview: Look for the Red Raider Ground Game to Have a Big day
- Through Sam Houston's first three 2026 games, quarterback Landyn Locke is averaging 324 passing yards per game with nine touchdowns, one interception and a 169 passer rating, according to the preview. The writer describes him as primarily a passing threat rather than a running quarterback; these are current production and style assessments.
- Sam Houston's leading rusher Alton McCaskill averages 47 yards per game and four yards per carry entering the 2026 Texas Tech game, while the offense has allowed nine sacks. Those figures support the preview's concerns about offensive balance and protection; they do not establish a new backfield order or an offensive-line replacement.
