As the Texas Tech Red Raiders get set to face off against the Oregon Ducks in the College Football Playoff quarterfinal in the Orange Bowl down in Miami, Mack Leftwich and the Red Raiders offense are having to account for one of the most impressive defenses in the country.
Dan Lanning, a brilliant defensive mind, has assembled a rather impressive group in Eugene, Oregon and the Ducks have put together a bunch of really impressive defensive performances this season.
Oregon’s defense has been holding opponents to just 16.3 points per game (which ranks at No. 10 in the country when it comes to scoring defenses).
