LUBBOCK, Texas - Tickets for Texas Tech's 29th bowl appearance will be available on a priority basis, athletic department officials announced today. Pre-order forms were sent to season ticket holders and Red Raider Club members at or above the $300 level two weeks ago with a Dec. 2 deadline.
Priority for tickets will be given to Red Raider Club members at or above the $300 level and season ticket holders. Those orders will be processed Dec. 5-9. Any remaining tickets will be available to the general public Dec. 12 at the Athletic Ticket Office in the north end of Jones SBC Stadium. Ticket limits may be imposed based upon which bowl the Red Raiders are selected.
Football season ticket holders who did not receive a pre-order form should contact the Texas Tech Athletics Ticket Office at (888) GO-BIG-12 or 742-TECH for a replacement form.
Texas Tech finished the season with a 9-2 overall record and 6-2 mark in Big 12 play. The nine wins reflect the most in a single-season since the 1976 squad won 10. Tech's record in league play is the best since joining the conference in 1996. Official announcement of which postseason bowl the Red Raiders will be competing in will be made on Dec. 4.
