I would not take Texas personally. I dont have any idea how they will react to this game. McCoy is an unknown quantity not having been hit for weeks. Is his arm ok like it was supposed to be when they played ATM? Does their pass defense still stink?

BTW. Believe it our not, the Alamo Bowl sold out quicker than any other Alamo Bowl ever and will set an attendance record. It was the 6th most popular bowl ticket on sale by the online market. Two teams on the down and out... go figure. Texas fans follow their teams and will pay ridiculous sums of money to be there. I will not. The tube works fine.

Pass the Nachos!

OK here is an example...

I think Texas Tech will lose because Mike Leach has been courting all these schools Alabama, Miami, to try and get a job... so of course his team will give up in their bowl game.

Mr. Smart guy I am, I look at the score and its 38-7 Minnesota. I just turn on the tube to see what a massacre the final score will be and the Texas Tech field goal kicker has just hit the longest field goal of his career, 52 yards, to tie the game 38-38 and now OT. Yes indeed

Mr. Big shot knows it all.

Make that 9-8 if TT wins!

The biggest comeback in the HISTORY of the NCAA bowl games. TT wins.

And Mr. Idiot, me, thinks el foldo because the coach has basically gone public by saying he might be looking around. How do you think his recruiting class is going to feel about this...? Surely they will lose. Down 38-7 and TT wins the game. Damn straight, this game is so easy.

Good lord... I know not what I do.
