Texas Tech coach Matt Wells addressed the media on Tuesday morning. The Red Raiders are 4-2 after dropping a home game to TCU. Next on the schedule is Kansas on the road.
Here's what to take away from his press conference.
- Reggie Pearson and Marquis Waters were two of three starting safeties out against the Horned Frogs. The Red Raider defense struggled and are a high value in the run game, which the Red Raiders struggled with by far in Big 12 Conference play so far.
- Kansas has a couple of young players in the backfield. Wells said they'll be ready for their best.
- Wells said they run a four-man front more than a three-man front, believe it or not. They run a linebacker down when only three are lined up on the defensive line - he added sometimes they bring more guys down. He mentioned they make calls because they're calculated and game planned throughout the week. "We got to tighten it up. We got to get better schematically ... This week's different." He mentioned every week it's about football and game planning.
- When asked if he expected the rest of the Big 12 to run the ball against them, Wells said Kansas specifically already runs the ball so they expect that from the Jayhawks.
- Wells said one Saturday isn't going to define him. He said he won't let anyone out work him. When you lose, you try to not let it demoralize you. He said he looks back to see what went wrong and what went well. Wells mentioned Sunday was not fun just like the rest of Saturday. But, it's about today. He had disappointed players on Saturday that have turned it around to focus on getting win No. 5 on the season this week.
- QB Henry Colombi has been consistent and solid. Wells said he throws the ball accurately and is making good, sound decisions. He's been efficient as well. Wells said Colombi has control of checking out of "some things" at the line.
- Reflecting back on TCU, he said Gary Patterson and Co. earned that when while the Red Raiders were unsuccessful to stack success. Wells said when you don't win there's disappointment. It's about refueling the tank to try to get to five wins with several weeks left. "That's competition at this level."
- Kansas has been the bottom of the Big 12 in recent times. Wells said it's going to be about getting the ball into his playmakers' hands. Another key will be to establish the run against the Jayhawks and grind it out for a road win. For the Jayhawks, desperation might be in play but Wells said everyone is desperate for a win every week.
- Krishon Merriweather is currently playing behind Riko Jeffers. Wells said having Jeffers along with Brandon Bouyer-Randle, Jesiah Pierre and Colin Schooler makes it a strong competition weekly and they'll put the best on the field.
- No true injury updates were given as players who have missed time are still listed day-to-day. Wells said they're still pretty banged up.
