Official Surly - Texas at Texas Tech Game Thread

[Nueces River Rat 5539]

Our defense got some of their nuts back. We need to open the half with time consuming drive and a score.

[Fire Jack Chevigny 938]

He wasn’t going to make it out of bounds anyway

You didn't hear? Brando said this is the Big 12's most intriguing rivalry since aggy left. 

Well, we did start scheduling Tech in the spot typically reserved for aggy for a few years after aggy ran off

[Modessit 5603]

They didn’t have a timeout and I don’t think they trusted Duffey to not turn it over. 

All he had to do is throw it way out of bounds. Clock stops when it lands. Run 5 or so seconds off.

Lil J. Love you man. But eyes on the ball 

If he's gonna have a drop might as well get it over with.

[clapclapclap 9000]

After all that, ultimately the D only gave up 10 in the half.  Good enough.

[Firemans4Horn 18106]

Everything about fox’s production sucks ass. Halftime crew is terrible as well. 

[UTEX_ME 4765]

Considering how that half started, nice result. Now can we please come out of a half and step on our opponent's throats?!?!

That was technically his second drop of the half. Not that it really matters.

[Modessit 5603]

Leinert must be getting his vag bedazzled.

[Tired of Lurking 637]

Defense, keep swarming to the ball. They are gonna make catches in space by virtue of running 5 receivers every play. Just make sure you make the tackles.
Offense, keep controlling the ball. Too many third downs, too many sacks taken, but I'm loving the LJH show.

Nice first half. Slow start again, but it's been all Texas since the interception.

[Liquor and Poker 3659]

Can’t believe I am saying this but can Robert Smith be the announcer in the second half? 

[Thetexashammer 1062]

Best part is that we are winning because Kliff is a fucking idiot.

After his fiasco in the first quarter in the red zone I think I would err on the side of caution with Duffey. 

[Vito Andolini 9126]

I put it on mute the first drive, and I don’t regret my decision 

[Guest]

I always respected Kliff’s toughness as a player. That shit at the end of the half was horseshit. Take a shot or maybe 2 at the endzone, then kick. The QB sneak on 4th and short was idiotic as well. Done with Coach Bro.

 

First time I’ve ever said that   I hope he’s gone after this season

I'd settle for Mel Tillis. Or Lee Corso. Or Kirk Douglas. Or Anne Ramsey.

Did you know this game reminds Brando of last year's game? No? We'll discuss that right after this break

It’s OK. I don’t want Major Applewhite as our HC.

Do you trust Duffey to take a shot though?

[Redneck Mutha 8001]

Stupid clock management.  1st and goal from the 2 with all 3 TOs, you don't snap the ball that early in the play clock.

[kingkoopa6 8369]

Yooooooo!!! What the fuck was that sooner hoe dragging shit did I just see.

I’d settle for Stephen Hawkins PC right about now.

[Tom Chairman 264]

What would you have suggested we did? Have Sam kneel until there's ten seconds left and then hope we score the touchdown play? 
No, idiot. You score when it's there, every time, and then you make the stop. If you don't make the stop, that's your defense fucking up. That has nothing to do with keeping the ball on offense.

Dumb ass. I would have snapped the ball with sub 5 seconds on the play clock instead of fucking 15. Do you think we could have benefited from burning an extra 30 seconds??

His QB caused a 14 point swing. He ain’t going to let that happen again if he can help it. The best pass Duffy threw was to get them in field goal range on the last series. Klingon is trying to get his kids head right.

I'd be more mad at him going for it on your own 30. Dumb dumb dumb dumb

You have to, for the rest of the team. 

You gotta run the offense, regardless. Let him rot if he fucks up the play.  Playing it safe is playing to lose. That’s towards cKK. Not Duffy.

Well Sam could have taken another ten yard sack and we settle for a FG. 

Net loss -1. 

Its the first half. Take the TD. Stop somebody

Letting the defense know that the snap is always coming in the last 5 seconds is how you get back to back sacks.

[Newy25 7692]

Montgomery is going to be suspended for the first half against us next week. That is great news for us. 

[totallynotabuttpirate 5400]

Not really, it was the quick snap that caught their D when they weren't lined up. Nothing is guaranteed. You can't say we would have scored with 100% certainty if we ran the clock down. Remember the oline played like poo for much of the first half.

Yeah.... disappointing the Defense didn't stop Tech from scoring the FG on that last drive.  Time for TEXAS Offense to kick ass in 2nd Half by getting up by 14+ points and never have Tech get any closer.....

GO HORNS 🤘

Understandable.

[totallynotabuttpirate 5400]

To add to that, we did stop them, but Josh Thompson decided to cunt punt Stern's INT. Can't plan for that. 

Thompson's on my shit list for giving up the last TD to the sisterfuckers.

Glad to be in this spot.   Could be 17- 6 tech at this point, or worse.  Let's repeat the 2q a couple of more times.

[Mdhorn 5969]

Hope the Horns come out with a fire rather than play down to their comp. Get a score and see what the D brings. Defense is finally fighting back rather than flailing. 

Edited November 11, 2018 by Mdhorn

[Newy25 7692]

It’s not bad coaching to call plays with game and personnel context in mind. I would have kicked the field goal there as well. 

What is curious is the inconsistency. Going for it on your own 34 with the young, backup QB was a horrible decision. That’s the kind of thing you try if you have Vince Young as a redshirt senior.

we havent won by 21 since  San Jose State last year.

Would really like to be up 3 scores or so come the 4th.   I need a break this week.

Kliff is 100% gone if Tech loses this game.  He should have been gone last year, but our dumbass bigdicks WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY overvalued the win over Texas then too.
