Head coach Joey McGuire and the Texas Tech football team can fully turn their attention to the Liberty Bowl after wrapping up their winter transfer portal wish list.
Matt Zenitz of 247Sports reported via social media on Saturday night that the Red Raiders are expected to add Buffalo kicker Upton Bellenfant . Kicker was the final position McGuire wanted to address in this transfer portal cycle before closing up shop.
Buffalo Bulls place kicker Upton Bellenfant (27) makes a field goal against the Connecticut Huskies in the second quarter at Rentschler Field at Pratt & Whitney Stadium.
Bellenfant began his collegiate career spent with two seasons at Alabama but did not see any action before transferring to Buffalo. With the Bulls in 2024, Bellenfant was named second team all-MAC after converting 14 of his 16 field goal attempts. He hit all 29 of his point-after attempts as well.
