LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - The Texas Tech Red Raiders are officially in the top four of the College Football Playoff rankings for the first time in program history.
Texas Tech sits at No. 4 in the rankings as No. 7 Texas A&M falls out after losing to No. 13 Texas last weekend.

A win on Saturday over No. 11 BYU in the Big 12 Championship game would almost certainly keep the Red Raiders in the top four, meaning Texas Tech would have a first-round bye to start the College Football Playoff.
