I think that Texas Tech sounds very possible. It is a large university 40,944 total students,
  • Undergraduate students: 32,806
  • Graduate students: 8,138

Furthermore I found this statement regarding TTU as a research university:

Texas Tech University has a rating of 8.0 out of 10, based on 25 reviews. Reviewers praise the university’s research opportunities, faculty expertise, and campus resources. Some reviewers mention that the university could improve in terms of funding and job placement after graduation.

Overall, Texas Tech University is a reputable institution with a strong focus on research and innovation. Its research opportunities, facilities, and resources make it an attractive option for students and researchers seeking to advance their knowledge and careers.

This would give the B1G a large research university in Texas.

Texas Tech has not 1 but 2 university hospitals with the main hospital in Lubbock and a secondary university Hospital in Midlands Tx. This is IMHO a huge move.

Texas tech university hospital Lubbock​

The Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC) is a public medical school based in Lubbock, Texas, with additional campuses in Abilene, Amarillo, Dallas, and the Permian Basin. TTUHSC serves more than 100 counties in the western portion of Texas.
