LUBBOCK, Texas: Anybody who's a Red Raider football fan probably still has vivid memories of last year's comeback victory over Texas A&M in College Station. With under a minute to go in the game Texas Tech trailed A&M 27-24. That is of course until Graham Harrell made one of the best throws of his career, finding Robert Johnson streaking down the right sideline towards the end-zone. RoJo made a great grab and the touchdown put the Red Raiders up to stay.
While Texas Tech hopes to be leading in the waning moments of this year's matchup with the Aggies on Saturday, what if a big play similar to the one Rojo made last year is needed? Who's the one to make that game-winning grab this year? Would it be a "Crab-Grab", or maybe the receiving corps' senior leader, Danny Amendola would make the play? Well, one thing is for sure, we know who's going to throw it and that's the nation's leading passer, Graham Harrell. And, according to Harrell, it doesn't matter which Tech receiver is put in that "hero-maker" position, because any of them could make the play.
