Carona, Donnie kick attempt good.
==EASTERN WASHINGTON 0, TEXAS TECH 7==
--------------- 8 plays, 30 yards, TOP 02:06 ---------------

Coming off of an interception, the Red Raiders were gifted excellent field position. Somewhat surprised to see Swindall get so man early looks. Nice to see Batch get 8 yards immediately, while D. Lewis got the ball down to the EWU 6 and Shannon Woods eventually punched in the touchdown from the two. Nice way to start the game, no real complaints here.

Drive #2

T 1-10 T37 TEXAS TECH drive start at 11:46.
T 1-10 T37 PENALTY TT personal foul (Britton, Edward) 15 yards to the TT22, 1ST DOWN TT.
T 1-10 T22 TT ball on TT22.
T 1-10 T22 Harrell, Graham sideline pass complete to Crabtree, M. for 7 yards to the TT29 (Ryan Kelley; Matt Johnson).

T 1-G E10 Harrell, Graham FD pass incomplete to Crabtree, M..
T 2-G E10 Harrell, Graham middle pass complete to Swindall, T. for 9 yards to the EWU1 (Marcus Walker;Zach Johnson).
T 3-G E01 Harrell, Graham rush for 1 yard to the EWU0, TOUCHDOWN, clock 08:32.
Carona, Donnie kick attempt failed (blocked) (blocked by Team).
==EASTERN WASHINGTON 0, TEXAS TECH 13==
Carona, Donnie kickoff 64 yards to the EWU6, Nicholas Ramos return to the EWU26 (Sanders, DeShon), PENALTY TT offside (Collier, Blake) 5 yards to the TT25, NO PLAY.
--------------- 10 plays, 78 yards, TOP 03:14 ---------------

Started the drive off with a Britton penalty as the Red Raiders originally had the ball at their own 37, but because of the penalty, were pushed back to their own 22. Pretty good mix of plays here as Crabtree, Lewis, E. Morris and Swindall each had receptions, while Woods, E. Morris and Harrell each ran the ball as well, Harrell's for the TD. Again, a Hamby penalty put Texas Tech at 2nd and 16, but the Morris reception for 15 yards made life easier for Texas Tech. Carona missing the "Carona Extra" point is a little worrisome.

Drive #3

T 1-10 T43 TEXAS TECH drive start at 07:34.
T 1-10 T43 Harrell, Graham sideline pass incomplete to Crawford, Aaron (Greg Peach).
T 2-10 T43 PENALTY TT false start (Winn, Marlon) 5 yards to the TT38.
T 2-15 T38 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Crawford, Aaron for loss of 4 yards to the TT34 (Zach Johnson).
T 3-19 T34 Harrell, Graham sideline pass incomplete to Crawford, Aaron.
T 4-19 T34 LaCour, J. punt 53 yards to the EWU13, Tyler Hart return 4 yards to the EWU17 (Sanders, DeShon).
--------------- 3 plays, minus 9 yards, TOP 00:47 ---------------

An uninspired series. Two incomplete passes to Crawford, a false start by Winn and a 4 yard loss on a pass to Crawford. Absolute mess of a series. My thought here is that Texas Tech should let Crawford run the ball and leave the pass receptions to Woods who seems more capable out of the backfield. Nothing against Crawford, but Woods is probably better suited for that, even Batch as well. Basically, I'd just like to see these guys play to their strengths.

Drive #4

T 1-10 T10 TEXAS TECH drive start at 04:13.
T 1-10 T10 PENALTY EWU offside (L. Witherspoon) 5 yards to the TT15.
T 1-5 T15 Harrell, Graham crossing pass complete to Crabtree, M. for 24 yards to the TT39, 1ST DOWN TT (Marcus Walker).
T 1-10 T39 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Britton, Edward for 13 yards to the EWU48, 1ST DOWN TT (Marcus Walker).
T 1-10 E48 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Swindall, T. for 11 yards to the EWU37, 1ST DOWN TT (Marcus Walker).
T 1-10 E37 Woods, Shannon rush right for 11 yards to the EWU26, 1ST DOWN TT (Marcus Walker;Ryan Kelley).
T 1-10 E26 Woods, Shannon rush left for 1 yard to the EWU25.
T 2-9 E25 Harrell, Graham sideline pass complete to Lewis, Detron for 6 yards to the EWU19 (Jesse Hoffman).
T 3-3 E19 Batch, Baron rush for 4 yards to the EWU15, 1ST DOWN TT (J.C. Sherritt).
T 1-10 E15 Harrell, Graham sideline pass complete to Crabtree, M. for 1 yard to the EWU14.
T 2-9 E14 PENALTY EWU personal foul (Kevin Hatch) 7 yards to the EWU7, deadball foul.
T 2-2 E07 1st and 7.
T 1-G E07 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Morris, Eric for 3 yards to the EWU4 (Lonnie Hosley).
T 2-G E04 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Crabtree, M. for 4 yards to the EWU0, TOUCHDOWN, clock 00:48.
Harrell, Graham pass attempt to Lewis, Detron good, TWO POINT CONVERSION.
==EASTERN WASHINGTON 0, TEXAS TECH 21==
--------------- 10 plays, 90 yards, TOP 03:25 ---------------

A Britton penalty (running theme) pushed Texas Tech back to their own 10 yard line, but this was a long sustained drive where Crabtree started the drive and finished it. A 24 yard completion to Crabtree started 4 plays of over 10 yards a piece. A EWU penalty (I think this was a roughing the passer call, which I think led to Riley getting a late hit in against Nichols, speculation on my part) put the ballon the EWU 7 yard line and Crabtree got his first touchdown of the year and D. Lewis made up for the missed extra point with a two point conversion. This is the kind of drive I like, Harrell throws the ball down the field and is getting good chunks of yards.

Drive #5

T 1-10 T35 TEXAS TECH drive start at 14:43.
T 1-10 T35 Harrell, Graham pass intercepted by Matt Johnson at the TT44, Matt Johnson return 37 yards to the TT7 (Byrnes, Shawn).
--------------- 1 plays, 0 yards, TOP 00:11 ---------------

Consistency.  A really good drive, #4, with a horrible drive, this one, as Harrell threw an interception, I assume in the flat, which was promptly returned 37 yards to the Texas Tech 7, setting up an easy EWU touchdown.

Drive #6

Felipe Macias kickoff 70 yards to the TT0, touchback.
T 1-10 T20 TEXAS TECH drive start at 13:45.
T 1-10 T20 PENALTY TT personal foul (Riley, Sandy) 10 yards to the TT10.
T 1-20 T10 TT ball on TT10.
T 1-20 T10 1st and 10.
T 1-10 T10 Harrell, Graham pass incomplete to Morris, Eric.
T 2-10 T10 Harrell, Graham sideline pass complete to Woods, Shannon for 3 yards to the TT13 (Kyle Wilkins).
T 3-7 T13 Harrell, Graham deep out pass complete to Morris, Eric for 18 yards to the TT31, 1ST DOWN TT.
T 1-10 T31 Harrell, Graham pass complete to James, Adam for 9 yards to the TT40 (Kevin Hatch).
T 2-1 T40 Harrell, Graham deep out pass complete to Leong, Lyle for 32 yards to the EWU28, 1ST DOWN TT (Kevin Hatch), PENALTY EWU personal foul (Zach Johnson) 14 yards to the EWU14, 1ST DOWN TT.
T 1-10 E14 1st and 10.
T 1-10 E14 Deadball foul.
T 1-10 E14 Britton, Edward rush for 9 yards to the EWU5 (J.C. Sherritt).
T 2-1 E05 Woods, Shannon rush draw play for 2 yards to the EWU3, 1ST DOWN TT (Greg Peach).
T 1-G E03 Woods, Shannon rush for 2 yards to the EWU1.
T 2-G E01 Woods, Shannon rush for 1 yard to the EWU0, TOUCHDOWN, clock 10:54.
Carona, Donnie kick attempt good.
==EASTERN WASHINGTON 7, TEXAS TECH 28==
T 1-G T30 PENALTY TT personal foul (Winn, Marlon) 15 yards to the TT15.
--------------- 9 plays, 90 yards, TOP 02:51 ---------------

Another penalty puts deep in their own territory, luckily, E. Morris grabs an 18 yard pass on a 3rd and 7. Adam James got his first reception of his career with a 9 yard grab, while L. Leong caught a 32 yard pass from Harrell. An EWU personal foul put the ball on the EWU 14 yard line and a Britton 9 yard run put the ball EWU 4. Three straight Woods' running plays led to a Red Raider touchdown. I assume on the celebration or extra point, Winn was assessed a 15 yard personal foul.

Drive #7

T 1-10 T33 TEXAS TECH drive start at 07:59.
T 1-10 T33 PENALTY TT false start (Carter, Brandon) 5 yards to the TT28.
T 1-15 T28 Batch, Baron rush for 3 yards to the TT31 (Matt Johnson).
T 2-12 T31 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Lewis, Detron for 10 yards to the TT41 (Matt Johnson;Zach Johnson).
T 3-2 T41 Batch, Baron rush for loss of 1 yard to the TT40 (L. Witherspoon).
T 4-3 T40 PENALTY TT delay of game 5 yards to the TT35.
T 4-8 T35 LaCour, J. punt 34 yards to the EWU31, Tyler Hart return 0 yards to the EWU31 (Charbonnet, T.), PENALTY TT kick catching interference 15 yards to the EWU46, 1st and 10, EWU ball on EWU46.
--------------- 3 plays, 2 yards, TOP 02:14 ---------------

A 5 yard false start penalty by Carter put Texas Tech in a hole early, two marginal rushing plays and another delay of game penalty, put Texas Tech in a position of having to punt and LaCour was only able to manage a 34 yarder, while a catching interference penalty pushed EWU almost to midfield. Absolutely nothing accomplished this drive.

Drive #8

Felipe Macias kickoff 70 yards to the TT0, Wall, Jamar return 43 yards to the TT43 (Nicholas Ramos).
T 1-10 T43 TEXAS TECH drive start at 02:44.
T 1-10 T43 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Woods, Shannon for 12 yards to the EWU45, 1ST DOWN TT (J.C. Sherritt).
T 1-10 E45 Harrell, Graham pass incomplete to Swindall, T. (Makai Borden).
T 2-10 E45 Harrell, Graham pass incomplete to Lewis, Detron.
T 3-10 E45 Harrell, Graham sideline pass complete to Crabtree, M. for 7 yards to the EWU38 (Ryan Kelley).
T 4-3 E38 Harrell, Graham pass incomplete.
--------------- 5 plays, 19 yards, TOP 01:35 ---------------

Another relatively non-productive drive. Leach went for it on 4th down and it fell short, but it was either go for it or kick a field goal from the EWU 38, which wasn't going to happen considering yesterday's struggles. Turnover on downs.

Drive #9

E 1-G E30 Start of 3rd quarter, clock 15:00, EWU ball on EWU30.
--------------- 6 plays, 24 yards, TOP 01:09 ---------------
Felipe Macias kickoff 43 yards to the TT27, fair catch by Hale, Ryan.
T 1-10 T27 TEXAS TECH drive start at 15:00.
T 1-10 T27 Woods, Shannon rush for 2 yards to the TT29 (Jesse Hoffman).
T 2-8 T29 Harrell, Graham crossing pass complete to Morris, Eric for 38 yards to the EWU33, 1ST DOWN TT (Matt Johnson).
T 1-10 E33 Harrell, Graham screen pass complete to Morris, Eric for 21 yards to the EWU12, 1ST DOWN TT (Matt Johnson).
T 1-10 E12 Woods, Shannon rush for no gain to the EWU12 (Zach Johnson).
T 2-10 E12 Harrell, Graham middle pass complete to Lewis, Detron for 7 yards to the EWU5 (Makai Borden).
T 3-3 E05 Woods, Shannon rush for 1 yard to the EWU4 (Tyler Jolley).
T 4-2 E04 Harrell, Graham rush quarterback sneak for 1 yard to the EWU3 (Tyler Jolley).
--------------- 7 plays, 70 yards, TOP 03:11 ---------------

Start of the second half and another productive, big-yardage drive with Harrell and E. Morris. Morris had catches of 38 and 21 yards, which essentially put Texas Tech at the EWU 10 yard line. Harrell was unable to get into the endzone on 4th and 2. Very disappointing and I think I would have rather have seen Crawford, Woods or Batch going for the first down rather than Harrell.

Drive #10

T 1-10 T39 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Morris, Eric for 11 yards to the 50 yardline, 1ST DOWN TT (Kyle Wilkins).
T 1-10 T50 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Crabtree, M. for 12 yards to the EWU38, 1ST DOWN TT (Kyle Wilkins).
T 1-10 E38 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Crabtree, M. for 7 yards to the EWU31 (Kevin Hatch).
T 2-3 E31 Harrell, Graham screen pass complete to Morris, Eric for 19 yards to the EWU12, 1ST DOWN TT (Ryan Kelley).
T 1-10 E12 Crawford, Aaron rush for 3 yards to the EWU9 (David Miles).
T 2-7 E09 PENALTY TT false start (Vasquez, Louis) 5 yards to the EWU14.
T 2-12 E14 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Batch, Baron for 10 yards to the EWU4 (Matt Johnson).
T 3-2 E04 Crawford, Aaron rush for 2 yards to the EWU2, 1ST DOWN TT (Renard Williams), PENALTY EWU face mask (Renard Williams) 1 yards to the EWU1, 1ST DOWN TT.
T 1-G E01 1st and 1.
T 1-G E01 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Britton, Edward for 1 yard to the EWU0, TOUCHDOWN, clock 04:51.
Carona, Donnie kick attempt good.
==EASTERN WASHINGTON 17, TEXAS TECH 35==
--------------- 8 plays, 61 yards, TOP 00:00 ---------------

Another large chunk drive with completions of 11, 12, 7, 19, and 10 yards. This was Aaron Crawford's drive and he did well, nothing big, but did get a first down, although an EWU penalty did help get the ball to the Texas Tech 1, where Harrell throew the ball to Britton for the touchdown. Not a bad drive.

Drive #11

Felipe Macias kickoff 42 yards to the TT28, fair catch by Riley, Sandy.
T 1-10 T28 TEXAS TECH drive start at 00:21.
T 1-10 T28 Harrell, Graham middle pass complete to Crabtree, M. for 7 yards to the TT35 (Greg Peach).
=========END OF 3rd QUARTER=========
EASTERN WASHINGTON 24, TEXAS TECH 35
(4th quarter)
T 2-3 T35 Start of 4th quarter, clock 15:00.
T 2-3 T35 Harrell, Graham middle pass complete to Lewis, Detron for 15 yards to the 50 yardline, 1ST DOWN TT (Matt Johnson).
T 1-10 T50 Harrell, Graham sideline pass complete to Swindall, T. for 4 yards to the EWU46 (Makai Borden).

T 3-3 E06 Crawford, Aaron rush for 6 yards to the EWU0, 1ST DOWN TT, TOUCHDOWN, clock 12:20.
Carona, Donnie kick attempt good.
==EASTERN WASHINGTON 24, TEXAS TECH 42==
--------------- 8 plays, 72 yards, TOP 03:01 ---------------

Completions to Crabtree, Lewis, Swindall, Morris, Britton and Crawford should demonstrate how varried this offense really is. Pretty amazing if you ask me and it was nice to see Crawford rewarded with a 6 yard touchdown run. There were a couple of short passes here, but and there, but the large chunks were to Lewis and Morris.

Drive #12

T 1-10 E26 TEXAS TECH drive start at 11:41.
T 1-10 E26 Harrell, Graham pass incomplete to Lewis, Detron. T 2-10 E26 Harrell, Graham pass incomplete to Morris, Eric (Zach Johnson).
T 3-10 E26 Harrell, Graham pass incomplete to Swindall, T..
T 4-10 E26 Carona, Donnie field goal attempt from 44 BLOCKED, recovered by EWU Team at EWU30 spot at EWU30, clock 11:16 (blocked by L. Witherspoon), out-of-bounds, Team for no gain to the EWU30, out-of-bounds.
--------------- 4 plays, 0 yards, TOP 03:08 ---------------

Yuck, all the way around. Nothing to see here.

Drive #13

T 1-10 T14 TEXAS TECH drive start at 08:33.
T 1-10 T14 PENALTY TT substitution infraction 5 yards to the TT9.
T 1-15 T09 Woods, Shannon rush for 2 yards to the TT11 (J.C. Sherritt).
T 2-13 T11 Harrell, Graham middle pass complete to Lewis, Detron for 76 yards to the EWU13, 1ST DOWN TT (Ryan Kelley;Matt Johnson).
T 1-10 E13 PENALTY TT false start 5 yards to the EWU18.
T 1-15 E18 PENALTY TT pass interference (Crabtree, M.) 15 yards to the EWU33.
T 1-30 E33 Harrell, Graham pass complete to Lewis, Detron for 3 yards to the EWU30 (Kevin Hatch).
T 2-27 E30 Harrell, Graham middle pass incomplete to Woods, Shannon.
T 3-27 E30 Harrell, Graham pass incomplete to Morris, Eric (Zach Johnson).
T 4-27 E30 Carona, Donnie field goal attempt from 47 MISSED, spot at EWU30, clock 06:22.
--------------- 6 plays, 56 yards, TOP 02:11 ---------------

Huh. A penalty to start a drive. Obviously, the play of the game was a 76 yard bomb to D. Lewis. That guy is going to bring it. A false start and a surprising Crabtree pass interference penalty set Texas Tech back to 1st and 30 and could never get out of it. Carona missed a 47 yard field goal and had it not been so long to a first down, I'm betting Leach would have gone for it.

Drive #14

T 1-10 T45 TEXAS TECH drive start at 02:57.
T 1-10 T45 TT ball on TT46.
T 1-10 T46 Harrell, Graham sideline pass complete to Britton, Edward for 8 yards to the EWU46 (Dante Calcote).
T 2-2 E46 Harrell, Graham middle pass complete to Swindall, T. for 20 yards to the EWU26, 1ST DOWN TT (Jesse Hoffman).
T 1-10 E26 Batch, Baron rush for 26 yards to the EWU0, 1ST DOWN TT, TOUCHDOWN, clock 02:08.
Carona, Donnie kick attempt good.
==EASTERN WASHINGTON 24, TEXAS TECH 49==
--------------- 3 plays, 54 yards, TOP 00:49 ---------------

The end of the game and you would think we'd try to run a little bit of clock. Not so fast. Texas Tech gets the ball on their own 45 and a beautiful 26 yard touchdown run from Baron Batch is the nail in the coffin. Again, somewhat surprised by Swindall getting so many catches as a redshirt freshman.
