So is a test a matchup with a team that a. should beat you, or a team that b. can compete with and have a chance at beating you.

I may have to eat crow tomorrow, but I believe Texas Tech is a test for Texas. We've had a ridiculously productive offense for nearly a decade now. We won't miss a beat offensively. Crabtree and Harrell were Texas Tech record breakers, but they weren't responsible for the defensive effort last year. Texas is just as untested this year. They are ranked #2 based on opinion and last year's performance right now. La Monroe and Wyoming didn't test them.
