For those of you familiar with the "fans" at TTU, check this out...

The Red Raiders had an announced crowd of 59,260 Saturday night. That's the largest crowd of the season for Texas Tech, and the largest crowd to see a Texas Tech-Iowa State game in Lubbock or Ames. With 11 minutes left, Texas Tech trailed 38-7 and the crowd had been reduced to less than 5,000.
My jaw hit the floor wheen I seen that score I thought "SERIOUSLY"?

Dont get me wrong it is funny it happened to them but on the other hand OU has got to look in the mirror and saY WTF!

A&M is always a good game it seems every year it comes down to who has the ball last, we shall see.

I think there are several games that are going to make this an interesting end of the season. I'm not making any predictions, but I'm certainly going to enjoy them:

Of course 'bama and LSU
Oregon and Stanford
Oklahoma and Oklahoma State
TCU and Boise State
USC and Oregon

SEC Championship game
PAC 12 Championship game

After these games, everything will be a whole lot clearer obviously!

I know the feeling, but have no answer to the question!
Tech is feeling the sting like OU did the week before.
Guess it falls under the "any given team...on any given day" mantra?

And, FWIW, I'm very concerned about TXAM next week; don't want a repeat of last year's score... 33-19, unless it's the other way around, that is!
ahhh...college football...can make a sane person crazy in a hurry.

Seems to me that any team can lose on any given day!
It's the Rich Rod mentality. Try to outscore your opponents. Ultimately it does not work. You need a stout defense, and LSU and Alabama have it and is why one of those teams will be the national champion. Thing is, why is it that so many of these spread teams suck azz on defense. I don't get it. It's not like they have a salary cap. I think defensive coaching is becoming a lost art.

If OU wins out I'll bet they would be in the NCG as long as Stanford loses.

LSU vs Bama (computers like the Big 12 more), OU would knock OSU out by winning and Boise St. will just continue to fall.

And for all the Boise St. supporters who advocate for them, just look at Houston........... Same priciple applies.
