2 Words – Jamar Wall – without the field position on the punt return who knows what would have happened. I hope he got a Helmet sticker a really Big one

The Tech defense was awesome! I give them an A- only because they wore down a little in the second half because they were out there most of the 3rd quarter. Great job Ruff! They need to and I hope they bring their A+ game this week!!! Statistically, Oklahoma State is the most balanced offensive team in the country… only team to average more than 200 yards/game rushing and passing… Most people would call me crazy, but this game coming up could be more difficult than the UT game.. I hope the crowd and team is just as high and pretends like this is a rivalry game and wreck Okie state..

If I’m not mistaken I believe with Brandon Williams 2 sacks that should make him all time leader in the big 12 in sacks 10 total? I will have to say Brandon and M.Dixon compliments each other well in the game. WRECK’EM TECH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i loved this game and i dont think alot of people thought about how huge that safety was but it totally took the spirit out of the longhorn for the entire first half. now lets focus step up our gameplay – i no tt can play better than last night- and beat okie state otherwise this game and our #2 ranking wont mean a thing

Great defenses prevent Offenses from driving for a go-ahead TD with less than 2 minutes left in the game.

They played tremendously for most of the game, but as I have asked several times, and cannot get an answer: why abandon the 4 man Defensive front (that worked very well) for the 3 man front that almost allowed ut to win the game? (I didn’t see ut’s O doing anything that warranted the change,)

Kudos to the entire team, but the defense set the tone for the entire game with the safety on the horns’ first possession. So many contributed and I have never felt more excited than I do right now about being a RAIDER! We need that same defense with that same intensity and hunger for the remainder of the season. Nice job Coach Ruff!

I agree…best defense I’ve seen since the days when I was at Tech with Zach Thomas! I love my Red Raiders and I am sooooo proud of our defense! Yes, Graham and Michael and the offense will get most of the credit, but without this amazing Red Raider D – the score may have been a bit different! WAY TO GO DEFENSE!

Great Game…. now OKST comes to town…. its time to focus……on the cowboys….
