College Football Saturday

[KLin]

500th win in school history. Nice #500 win.

Great game. Too bad Texas did not bring it in the first half, and choked on the last defensive stand.

Grats to Tech. Enjoy it. You've got a rough two weeks ahead of you.

Texas coach is pissed. Get me the hell off of this field.

Are you kidding? Is this crowd full of idiots?

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh

They were idiots though, rushing the field before the game is even over.

As a UT fan--Exciting game and well done! Can't wait to see the rankings tomorrow:
TT
Bama
UF
and then . . . chaos?

And do the team colors foreshadow an OBAMA win on Tuesday? 😛

seriously. that was a horrible play. at least knock him out of bounds and let them take their chances with a FG

The biggest cocktail party and a Texas sized shootout.

Florida and Georgia
Texas and Texas Tech

Its interesting Herbstriet didnt pick a winner of the Texas - Texas Tech game. Corso put on Raider Reds Head and shot off the shotguns. Hopefully that doesn't jinx Texas Tech, Corso is 5-6 with those picks.

My picks are

Florida over Georgia
Texas Tech over Texas

I'm going with the same pics, but TT has to really step up.

2 for 2! 🙂

Yeah don't listen to that 'bignateyk' wanker. The people in the crowd were idiots who don't know football.

Great game though.

Or wrap him up and *maybe* time runs out before he hits the ground. The potential last play of the game is not the time to take chances when you've got the upper hand.

lol, what a crazy ending. Looking good for the gators now.

Go Tech! My alma mater! Damn I wish I was in Lubbock right now, there will be some debauchery going on tonight!

I'm sorry, but this game came down to clock management. On Texas's last drive, they had a 2nd and goal situation with 1 min 30 sec left and both the game clock and play clock winding down. They snapped the ball with 30 seconds on the play clock! Why would you do that?? This is your last set of downs, why leave potentially more time for Texas Tech after you score?

Before TTU's heroics at the end, that was the decision that gave them a chance.

I was wondering about that myself.

Hats off to TTU, though. They played a hell of a game.

But see that is the way the play is designed. Its designed to get the defenders on the wrong side of the player. Tech throws a lot of that every game.

Did you see where the safety was? He made a half ass break on the ball. If he would have stayed at home, he would have been able to wrap up. It's called prevent defense for a reason.

Sheesh...Texas Tech fans are seriously stupid.....

 

[imported_weadjust]

How insane a division is the Big 12 South? They have 4 legitimate BCS teams (Oklahoma, Texas Tech, Texas, and Oklahoma State). I'm sure fans in that division are looking at all the tiebreaker scenarios. With Texas Tech still having Oklahoma and Oklahoma State remaining, there's still a good chance they'll lose one. I think there could easily be a 3-way tie at 7-1 for that division title. If Oklahoma wins out, Texas wins out, and Texas Tech wins all but the Oklahoma game, I wonder who goes to the Big 12 Title Game??

Guess beating Ohio State makes you a top 3 team now.

despite playing its 4th #11 or better team in 22 days, despite the fact that we were at their place, despite the fact that tech's constant holding was blatantly obvious on a 20" analog TV (check the replay of orakpo being injured, he was in a sleeper hold), the game came down to the fact that colt mccoy and mac brown apparently have the clock management skills of the houston texans.

congrats tech, you're going to lose to ok state.

tie breaker in the big xii is BCS standing.

Oklahoma. They'll have the highest BCS ranking of the three.

I would prefer Penn State to lose so we can easily have a good Alabama vs Texas Tech BCS Championship Game. Penn State in the BCS Championship Game would be like Ohio State's last 2 trips. Horrible!

In that scenario, the team with the highest ranking in the BCS goes to the Big 12 title game. If OU beats Tech, and wins all of its other games, OU will go to the title game because they are #4 right now and TX is likelty to drop to 6 or 7.
