Texas Tech Crowd Honors Patrick Mahomes in Epic Fashion During Colorado Game

One thing is certain: no matter where the Texas Tech Red Raiders stand in the standings—good, bad, or average—Lubbock, Texas, always delivers an electric atmosphere on game days.

 On Saturday afternoon, that energy was palpable in Jones AT&T Stadium as the Red Raiders hosted a massive matchup against the No. 20 ranked Colorado Buffaloes, led by Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders.

The Texas Tech crowd was loud, proud, and full of energy throughout the game. In a touching tribute to one of the greatest quarterbacks in the program’s history, and the current best quarterback in the NFL, Patrick Mahomes, the crowd made sure to honor him in style.

A massive banner/flag featuring Mahomes’ face in a Texas Tech uniform proudly read, “It’s Showtime,” reminding everyone of the quarterback’s lasting legacy in Lubbock and his continued success on the biggest stage in the NFL.
The Texas Tech Red Raiders have built a reputation for toughness, and after an impressive upset win over unbeaten Iowa State in Week 10, they’re aiming for another big victory against a ranked Colorado team. With veteran quarterback Behren Morton and dynamic running back Tahj Brooks leading the way, the Red Raiders are looking to make it two in a row as they continue to make noise in a tough season.
