Sheeeeeeeiiiiiiiiitttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lubbock and Tech on campus have both changed tremendously in the past 20 years or so.

I DO feel like it's practically on another planet versus DFW or H-town, with regard to climate, flatland/ no trees, and dusty as hell.  That being said, it's a badass college town.

That's funny, I've always thought the "Tell me about ...." threads were about Texas fans shit talking specifically about the subject school and not a thread on the Texas board for the fans of that sub

Keep ‘em coming - the Yormark and McGuire memes and vids - not only are they well deserved, most of them are hilarious. 🤣   Now that the Tech/UT series is officially over - or at least pause

The first time I saw Texas play Texas Tech in person, Larry Issacs was playing for Tech and the starting running backs (of note) for the Horns were Roosevelt Leaks and Earl Campbell.  I believe Sherman Lee was also a starting linebacker that year for the Horns.

Nothing has changed since then, Lubbock is still Lubbock, Tech still has to fly all of its recruits in and out after dark and Tech fans will never change.  Always hopeful until the reality of 100 years sits in.  The Red Wannabe’s......as a whole, the most unsophisticated fan base in football....and they live in Lubbock. That’s like having Jerry Jones as a cellmate in hell.....

Time to change your adult diaper.

If you don't like Tech, I sure won't lose any sleep over it.  Whatever.  If you're feeling in the mood to criticize something however, there's probably some value in being factual and accurate.  The above is the biggest crock of shit I've ever read here. It's absurd.

Tech is the school in Texas that all the kids that are too dumb to get into any of the decent schools (atm included) go to and then they spend 4 years in the middle of fuck nowhere sleeping with 7s, probably getting herpes, and then cheering for a football team that has never won anything but random upsets.

Oh? Is that the Crabtree video? I'm over it champ. I hope you beat OU so we can ass rape you at home in front of a bunch of dumb fans looking for an escape from Lubbock, Texas.

If it DID happen, we'll lose to Baylor or some shit.  That's just a way of fucking life.

Then we'd get that fabulous Health Supplement that you piss away Bowl in exotic Houston again.  Don't get me wrong, I'd likely go to the game, but damn.

I said before the season started that anything better than 5 wins on that schedule and our QB situation would be a good campaign for cKK.  The way the losses have happened, aside from Ole Miss( understandable with first half injuries,) it's just frustrating as hell thinking about could have been.

All that banging 7s in the middle of flat nowhere watching mediocre football shit cuts a little close to the bone

Like there is anything wrong with 7s...shit, I think of this like a normal bell curve - 7 is pretty damn good, maybe a standard deviation above the norm...and the "norm" for a college campus outside of College Station is way above the "norm" pretty much anywhere else. 

7 is fantastic.

I agree 100%.  Never said it was a bad thing whatsoever.  The Shag Elite “I only fuck 10s” crowd is both nauseating and full of shit.

 I also have an affinity for empty spaces and celebrating less than spectacular football, and as an ISU alum very much identified with that particular description of TTU.

Heartbreaking last-second TDs that knock us out of national title games, shutouts on Halloween, whatever...we can all come together to celebrate the glory of solid 7s.

No one is claiming to only fuck 10s. Pump the brakes chief.

There are some babes at Tech. I had a thing with a hot Tech transfer my Junior year. Just wrap it before you tap it amigos.

Wasn’t a shot at your comment at all.  But I’m sure you’ve seen the posts I’m referencing.

You’re original post seemed fairly objective IMO

Is this the Tech circle jerk thread?

Fuck off with this shit. It’s getting way too chummy in here.

Your best team of all time lost to fucking Ole Miss. 

It was their Super Bowl, it is the only time in the history of their program they felt relevant, then they shit the sheets and got punked by ou 65-21 2 weeks later. Let them enjoy their one moment

Tech now has a better shot to beat BlowU...

 

Dq8FqQ1VsAAjkJ1.jpg?format=jpg&name=orig

Lol, he was 3rd maybe 4th on the depth chart and that was without Rodney Anderson. Their two best backs are Sermon and Brooks. Then Pledger is a talented Freshman. Sutton has 2 of their 22 rushing TDs, they will hardly bat an eye without him.

The decent Texas fans don’t even post in this thread, unless it’s a legit question or comment. 

This board is great because fans from all over are welcome. The regular Tech board tends to be myopic and constantly gruntled, so here we are. 

Not looking for shit, but if dingledorks come in hete expecting Texags or BlowU reactions...welp...not really gonna happen.

Haven't been to a lot of college towns around the country eh? LBK would def be in the "average" tier.

I lived it...and then have visited a few or 20 or so college towns.[/ sarcastic, as I am an avid fan of college football and have 2 boys who are college aged]

Lubbock is a great place to go to college.

Lubbock is a great place to go to college.

Lets be honest, it's 3 bars on Broadway. Start at Chimy's then stumble over to Crickets or Mesquites. Nobody goes to the depot that doesn't want to get stabbed. The food out there is also very average. I've always had a good time, I'm just saying there are literally tons of better places.

carry on...

Enough with the persecution complex. No one is saying anything bad about Lubbock. We're questioning the delusionists that think it is a "badass" college town. It doesn't even crack the top 10 in location in Texas - irrelevant schools excluded. 

UT, SMU, Rice, Texas St., TCU, UTD, Trinity, Southwestern are all in far better locations by basically any metric you want to use. 

If you want people to stay out of your thread then you need to quit pretending or you're going to get called out on it.

I don't think we will beat both this year. If we do, it will be a nearly a miracle. Not to troll, but I think we have a better chance against Texas.

Lincoln Riley coached here, played under the system and Ruffin was our D coordinator. I think we'll lose by 10 or 15 against OU. If we beat UT it will be close too. Or we could lose by 10 or 15 to them. 

IF we beat both, I hope to God they don't make T-Shirts about it. But they will because we get too big for our britches.

1. troll somewhere else.  Sling shit somewhere else.  That is what you are doing.

2.  Nobody here sought out yours or any other motherfucker's approval of what is or is not a great college town.

3. With regard to alleged 'persecution complex' nobody here wishes they has gone to school in Austin, Norman, College Station or any of the other sordid places where your beloved autumnal mead might have been available.  Going to school in Lubbock was and is a fantastic experience, regardless of your endorsement( lol...who the fuck are you?)
