    I thought TT was suppose to kick our butts last season in Lubbock. We beat ya'll by 30, now we're at home w/ a better offense and much much better defense.

    I can't wait until Saturday. I hope to make the trip down to Austin to catch the game...

    It should be a good one. Yes, last year was a blow out. But Since I've been to school here Tech has beat Texas once, lost a heartbreaking game in Austin than had an embarassing peformance last season in LBK. So UT is not playing some scrub team...

    This is the best Tech team in years and everybody is saying this is the best Texas team in years. So I'm thinking it should be a good game. But we shall see. It's either going to be a UT romp or a close game that could either way. UT is too good to get blown out at home when they have this much to play for....

    FFB, while I appreciate your enthusiasm for Texas Tech, there is no need to be arrogant and gloat. Why don't you just let the game play itself out and leave the trash talking out of it? :confused: :)

    I am hoping for a great game!

    Nah, let him run his mouth, just makes him look even dumber after the game is over. He will probably be like the Mexico soccer fans (*ahem* SwoLy) that say that their team is still BETTER even though they got their asses kicked. ;)

    Look, Tech has a nice little team, but for God's sake, who in the world have they played? The Sisters of the Poor? Plano East High School? Leach (I think that is the coach's name) has a schedule that Bill Snyder of Kansas State would be proud of. If Tech scores more than 20 points against Texas, it will be a miracle. If Texas doesn't score more than 49 points against Texas Tech, it will be a miracle.

    Tell you what, "Nomad Jim", would you be willing to do a sig bet since you are so confident that your Red Raiders are going to win this game? No point spread, just win or lose. I'll take Texas, you have Tech. Horns win, I get to pick your new sig and you have to use it for a month. Red Raiders wins, you pick my new sig and I'll have to use it for a month. Let's see how serious you are about your team. :)

    Sure, why not? Good to see you're talking again. :)

    And for a sig bet, I should at least get some points.

    I've already bet several ut guys, and their giving me 10.

    Texas is the best team in college football, on offense and defense.

    Texas 56
    Tech 21


    It will be over by halftime.

    Vince is bigger, stronger and faster than Mr. Slay...

    Tech has no chance.

    This game should be a blast, i'm really happy that TT is undefeated -- UT really needs to beat them decisively, but i'm thinking just a win is all they'll get...

    Texas will do whatever they want on offense. They'll probably run the ball right down Tech's throats the whole game and control the clock keeping Tech's offense off the field. I predict 30 or more first downs for Texas.

    This game would be a lot more interesting if it were in Lubbock. No one is going to stop Texas this year except possibly the BCS. This is the best team they've had in 36 years.

    Texas 63
    Tech 24

    Sincerely,

    A Neutral Observer

    Typical. Some obnoxious fan comes in and starts a thread proclaiming that his powerhouse killing team (Indiana State? Sam Houston State? Gift from God against Nebraska) will defacate upon and kill the #2 team in the nation by 50, but when he's called out, he asks for points. Poor Mr. Fatty FatBatard needs poinst before he shows the sack to make a sig bet. Ah, that's so cute.

    Fine, mr. pissy, I'll take it straight up. :p

    I'm that confident.

    BTW, if you had an ability to help yourself out, I guess you wouldn't do it out of pride, eh?

    If I had the ability to help myself out, I wouldn't obnoxiously gloat about not needing help before hand.

    Texas Tech is Jekyll and Hyde against Texas.

    At Lubbock, Tech is actually quite competitive. In Austin, Texas completely kicks their arse.

    Considering this is probably the best Texas team in 30 years, Tech will get wiped out.

    Another neutral observer here. I'm really looking forward to this game. Tech has looked good, but they just haven't faced anybody even close to UT's caliber. I think if any defense can slow down Tech, it's this one.

    Texas: 48
    Tech: 31

    Last time TTech came to play in Austin, Texas won 43-40 on a late drive orchestrated by Chance Mock. That being said I expect Tech to come to play and bring everything they have to try and beat the 'Horns. But, Mack won't let there be a letdown game this season, and everyone here in Austin knows that this is a huge game. The crowd will be going bananas and lead the Horns to another impressive victory.

    45-28 Texas.

    Tech has always been known for their balls-to-the-walls offense, but somehow it's never enough when they come to play Texas... I keep telling my mom, dad, and uncle that they should just give up and admit that as much of a fight they'll put up, Texas will still come out on top.

    Okay Fatty, you want 10 points? You got it. The Horns have to win by 11 points or more for me to win. Tech has to win or lose by 10 points or less for you to win. Winner gets to pick the loser's sig and loser has to use new sig for a month. Do you accept?

    Looks like TT might be #7 in the BCS when it comes out tomorrow.
