That is typical of them. Despite the predictions and how much other annalist write us off, it does not matter. This is why they play the game. IT IS OUR TIME! I BELIEVE. GO TECH!

What in the ..... gives you the right to ask "if" this or "if" that? Who the .... do you think you are? You guys are a bunch of back-stabbers. You are as bad as sailor; but then again, sailor admits he is from a different school. I am appalled at your comments. You !#$!#$ are as bad as all those broadcasters who think they know everything. No one should be asking "if" this or "if" that. That freakin talk makes me sick in the stomach. The reality of things is that Texas Tech is playing against teams that have the potential to beat anyone at any given point. Simply because a team is not ranked does not make them bad. USC was ranked #1 then lost to an unranked team. What do you have to say about that? Who is the better team? I can guarantee you that USC wishes they could take that loss back. Look at what happened to OU when they played Boise. OU thought it was going to be a cake walk. Who earned their respect? ANY FREAKIN TEAM IS CAPABLE OF WINNING A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. There are 12 games in a season and each one of the opponents is just as good. Just freakin watch the game and enjoy it. The only fact anyone can predict is that one team will win and one team will lose. Yes, I enjoy them better when Tech wins, but I always enjoy watching my team play. The only fact that matters is WHO freakin wins the game. Sure, there are teams who have struggled in the past, BUT they would give anything to have Tech's previous years' record and rankings. There is a W column and an L column. Whether the win was 1 or 100, whether it was against a team with a winning season or less than that, it does not matter. The same goes for losses. The only fact that is: a loss is a loss by 1 or by 100. Yes, I would love it if Tech would win the Big 12 South and the Big 12 Championship then the National... IF Tech loses by 1 or 100 against Kansas does not mean that they will lose to OSU, UT, OU or Baylor. And that is the only allowable "if" that I will allow. Go Tech. If you win or if you lose, I still love ya!!! That's a FACT. and all you *(&%^ can go to *(&^%$............................ I wonder if anyone from the Tech coaching staff reads any of your comments.

Carona is having trouble with kicks, Fowlers is having trouble with kicks. La Cour is having trouble with kicks (punts) Hmmmm, All the legs are broke?? has anyone looked at the line, the snapper the holder?? we just keep on and on with the legs and not with the rest of the team that is involved with the kick.

How could we forget that Alex Trilicka was graduating without lining up a suitable replacement? With so many returning starters, how could this oversight happen. It just gives Leach an excuse to gamble on 4th and long on either end of the field and attempt 2pt. conversions. The next 4 teams we play will be waiting on us to try that.

A win for us regardless of the point differnetial will tell you if we'll be 9-0 when UT comes to Lubbock or 7-2 with the distinct possibility of going o 7-3 after UT beats us again. Our season is going to be made or broken in Lawrence, Kansas this coming Saturday. Like I said before, the game against the Jayhawk is THE indicator of how good TTU is.

McBath is a good safety. Is LA Reed playing one of the Safety spots as planned or is he out? Charbonnet? Is he any good? I thought Jamar Wall was one of the better corners in the Big XII, No?

I will say that Tech will start a new level of play now. This is very typical of Tech to get up when then odds are against them. The secondary is our largest problem and will probably continue to be. I do believe that things will change for the better moving forward for the defense as seen in the 2nd half of the A&M game. The athletes are there but not being coached properly in my opinion. Tech needs to play more man coverage and less zone. Very dissapointed in the corners. Linebackers are adeqaute. The defensive line is awesome. Hopefully Ruffin sees the the areas that need improvement and moves some people around. Filemon – I agree and lots of others do as well. I will say that Tech will start a new level of play now.

I dont want to say Im begin down on Tech, Im just more of a realist about this team this year. The offense is fantastic, but I dont trust the defense any further than I can throw 'em for the remainder of the schedule. I think they can beat KU but from then on its going to be an uphill battle.
