Where is Northwest Texas?

Question

I saw this on a woman's sweatshirt and I realized that it must be a joke because of the shape of the state.

Answer 1

Lubbock and Amarillo is usually considered west Texas, but in comparison to El Paso, I'd say northwest Texas includes them.  Maybe just before you go into Clovis?

Answer 2

The Northwest Texas region is usually in the Lubbock, TX area.  She was probably wearing one of those "directional" community college sweatshirts or some other small school.

Answer 3

The Panhandle is NW Texas.
