    I feel like we've regressed a bit.  Somewhat due to Bowman's injury, somewhat to coaching adjustments, and somewhat due to the defense getting back to its undisciplined ways.

    But look, I'm 45.  I've been watching Tech play football since 1980.  To me, it just feels like we've slipped back into our recurring pattern of following up progress with regression.

    his first start back he beat a team handily that just beat TCU the last weekend. 😋

  2. against OU i think we'll either get blown out or it will be close. and if it's close the O/U will be in the 70s.

    UT i think we'll win outright if they don't start playing better in their secondary. and if it's at night, that will help us too.

    And even though a couple of the penalties were pretty ticky-tack, a couple of them were just fucking dumb that extended the ISU drives.  Why even give the refs a reason on 3rd and long to throw a flag?  Just really dumb and lack of awareness of the game situation.

     

     

    that was frustrating. it seems the defense celebrates way too much after plays too. tony jones and justus parker in particular. jones with the late hits out of bounds in other games. but just seeing the defense plug the gaps against ISU's running game was promising. they're better than they have ever been in the last 8 years.. they just need to act like they've been there before and be a little more disciplined.

    Dammit, league used six day hold.  Now Herman gets to use another excuse for lack of preparation.  I hate night games in Lubbock, especially on the ten year anniversary of what is probably UT’s worst trip up there.  

    Of anybody sees the “either/or” options for kickoff that day out there in twittering or the inter webs, please post it here. That would help us make a Plan a little bit.  Though I’m sure it’ll say 11:00, 11:30, 2:30, 6:00, 6:30, or 7:00

    i think if texas or tech wins their game this weekend it will be at night.

  5. haha the guy who demands other posters to crowd source ban people in the CR because he doesn't know to deal with his own feelings when it comes to someone else's political opinions is getting negged hard because soooo self righteous.

  6. ISU will probably finish with a winning record in big 12 play. It would be their 3rd in 22 seasons.

     

    they were the better team. great coaches. wonder how long campbell will be there.,

  7. I hate making predictions, but here goes.

    I think Tech will have a chip on their shoulder because of the last two years against ISU. ISU is a VERY well coached team and I think it will be a chess match between both defensive coordinators. ISU has a better running back, definitely the best in the Conference and top 5 in the country.....but I think we have a better rushing attack. 6 different Tech players have scored rushing TD's. ISU's wideouts are tall and stout, they're like tree trunks. It will be a huge challenge for our DBs. Tech's wideouts have the height as well, except they aren't very bulky, but they have GREAT HANDS and make difficult catches. It's easy for Bowman to just launch the ball and they play jump ball with the secondary. Tech sucks at 11 am games but they've been great on the road. They have won their last 3 Big XII road games, going back to last year all in very tough environments (UT, Okie Lite, and TCU). We both have young QBs. Bowman seems to be our QB for the next 4 years and I am extremely happy with that. I haven't seen much of Purdy but I'm sure he's great as advertised. I think Tech's kicking game will be vital if we win this thing. I think it will come down to one or two mistakes for the losing team. I pick six or a fumble on a crucial drive.

    Defense travels, is the old saying. So I expect to be in the game in Ames this year. 

    I really think that KK and the staff are in a position that they havent had in their tenure. Depth and flexibility on defense. Special teams is stable. Offense can gameplan and use all its tools. Line play has been solid so far. 

    I like our chances. 

     

    That kinda makes me horny, Linda
