Micah Hudson - Two targets and receptions Hudson logged two receptions for 16 yards during Texas Tech's 29-7 win at Colorado.

Impact For the 2026 NCAA season, like during 2024 and 2025, Texas Tech's receiver corps includes Hudson. Since his re-enrollment, each of his games features multiple targets. Of the wideout's 12, he caught seven for 78 yards, 11.1 averaged per catch.

Is It Coaching, Talent, Or Money? For Deion Sanders And Colorado, It’s All Three

Cameron Dickey - Suffers ankle sprain, return time unclear Dickey suffered a sprained ankle during Saturday's game at Colorado and his return timeline is unclear, though he did not sustain a season-ending injury, Pete Nakos of On3 reports.

Impact Dickey's high ankle sprain explains why he only logged four carries Saturday at Colorado. If he is out long-term, that means more of Texas Tech's backfield rushes will go to his backups, like J'Koby Williams and Quinten Joyner. Even though Dickey's injury is not season-ending, him being out long-term could cause a huge dent in Texas Tech's offense, as last year's and this year's Red Raiders heavily relied on his running. For 2026, Dickey already has five touchdowns in as many games, combined with 57 rushing attempts for 242 yards.

Dabo Swinney And Clemson Are Stuck In Neutral After Another Blowout Loss

Stone Harrington - Three FGs against Colorado Harrington made 3 of 4 field goal attempts and all two of his extra-point tries during Saturday's 29-7 victory over Colorado.

Impact Harrington delivered a strong fantasy performance by connecting on three field goals, including a 52-yarder. The Red Raiders have shown they can move the ball consistently even when touchdowns aren't always available, giving Harrington a steady path to fantasy production as one of the more reliable kickers in the Big 12.

Kenny Johnson - Volume hits a speed bump Johnson caught 1 of 6 targets for eight yards during Saturday's 29-7 victory over Colorado.

Impact Johnson's streak of steady involvement continued against Colorado as he has seen at least six targets in every game, but the opportunities never translated into production. The disappointing stat line is easier to stomach when viewed through the context of the game, as the Red Raiders threw for only 134 yards and spent much of the second half protecting a lead built by a defense that forced four interceptions. The encouraging takeaway is that Johnson's target volume remains intact, and a quiet night like this looks more like an outlier created by game flow than a sign of a shrinking role in the offense.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Terrance Carter Jr. - Makes an Immediate Impact Carter caught 8 of 9 targets for 67 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 29-7 victory versus Colorado.

Impact Carter wasted little time reminding fantasy managers of his value, leading Texas Tech's pass catchers and hauling in Will Hammond's lone touchdown. In a game where the Red Raiders attempted just 26 passes and leaned heavily on a defense that forced four interceptions, Carter still finished as the offense's most productive fantasy weapon. If this performance is any indication, he appears fully integrated back into the game plan and should resume his role as one of Hammond's most reliable targets moving forward.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Cameron Dickey - Still searching for momentum Dickey posted four carries for 15 yards during Saturday's 29-7 victory over Colorado.

Impact Dickey was unable to carve out a significant fantasy impact against Colorado as Texas Tech spread work across the backfield and relied heavily on its defense to secure the win. With J'Koby Williams leading the way and Quinten Joyner finding the end zone, Dickey's path to consistent fantasy relevance remains dependent on either increased volume or a larger role near the goal line.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Quinten Joyner - Cashes in late TD Joyner accrued 10 carries for 63 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 29-7 win against Colorado.

Impact Joyner put the finishing touches on Texas Tech's victory with a 30-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter, turning a modest workload into a productive day. The 10 carries on the road matched a season-high for Joyner who remains behind Cameron Dickey and J'Koby Williams on the depth chart. Texas Tech is on a bye next week before playing Arizona State.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

J'Koby Williams - Led the way against Colorado Williams tallied 17 carries for 88 yards and caught all three targets for 26 yards during Saturday's 29-7 victory against Colorado.

Impact Williams paced the Texas Tech backfield against Colorado, handling the most consistent workload even in a game where the Red Raiders' defense controlled the outcome. The offense didn't need to push the tempo after forcing four turnovers, but Williams remains a safe bet for touches in a backfield that continues to feature multiple contributors.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Will Hammond - Defense did the heavy lifting Hammond completed 17 of 26 passes for 134 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 29-7 victory against Colorado. He also had five rushes for seven yards.

Impact Hammond and the Texas Tech offense never found much rhythm in the win at Colorado while the defense generated four interceptions and repeatedly handed the offense favorable field position. Texas Tech has now won five straight games, but this was another reminder that Hammond's fantasy ceiling is closely tied to game environment, as the Red Raiders simply didn't need him to chase points or carry the offense. Texas Tech is on a bye next week before returning to play Arizona State.
