The Texas Tech Red Raiders

Texas Tech is a member of the Big Twelve Conference and competes in Division I-A for athletics. Men's teams are the Red Raiders, women's teams are the Lady Raiders.

In addition to the "major" collegiate sports, the university offers other sports such as rugby, lacrosse, and soccer through campus intramural sports organizations.

The Masked Rider is the oldest of Texas Tech's mascots still in existence today. Originally called the "Ghost Rider," it was an unofficial mascot starting around 1936 when an unknown student (or students) would circle the field on horseback at home football games, riding into the stadium and away. The Masked Rider became the official mascot with 1954's Gator Bowl and has led the team onto the field at nearly every football game since.

Tech's other current mascot, Raider Red, is more recent. Around the time of the 1971 football season, the Southwest Conference created a rule that forbade the bringing of live animal mascots to away games unless the host school permitted it. Since the Masked Rider's horse would fall under this rule an alternate mascot was created. Student Jim Gaspard created the original design for the Raider Red costume, basing it on a character created by Lubbock cartoonist and former mayor Dirk West. Though the Masked Rider's identity is public knowledge, it has always been tradition that Raider Red's student alter ego is kept secret until the end of his tenure.

It is unclear which university Tech considers to be its main rival. Older generations of Techsans (referring to alumni of Tech) had long viewed the University of Texas to be their main rival, particularly in football. However younger Tech fans are more likely to claim that Texas A&M is the main rival; they point to the fact that the posterior of Soapsuds (the statue at the center of campus - "Will Rogers and Soapsuds Riding into the sunset") points southeast to the campus of Texas A&M. The rivalry between Texas Tech and Texas A&M flared during a football game in 2001 when Texas Tech defeated Texas A&M at Jones SBC Stadium in Lubbock. Following the end of the game, some Tech fans pushed a fallen goalpost into the Texas A&M seating section, resulting in several fights and arrests. Another reason that this perceived rivalry has escalated in recent years is due to the fact that Texas Tech has won seven out of the last ten football games against Texas A&M. However, some students still consider the University of Texas to be the true rival. Regardless, neither Texas A&M nor the University of Texas considers Texas Tech to be its main rival; the two schools are each others' main rivals.
