Interesting

Tech at #8… I haven’t looked closely at their roster yet. Think I might have to here soon.

Tech

This kinda reminds me of the 2005 year when Tech was ranked high, and college gameday was in Austin…We all know what happened on that day!

We took care of business!

I remember. The scalpers were asking crazy amounts for even the upper deck seats.

It's a Horns' world. Even Aggies play hoops with a burnt orange ball.
Is it football season YET?

Yeah

Hopefully our defense is ready for this one. Tech at Tech is no Tech at DKR. Plus, I think there’s a really, really good chance that this will be Leach’s best team. Plus side is, if he beats us and does something crazy and win the XII or something, then hopefully someone will finally hire him away. I want to go to Lubbock for this one.

Texas always holds tis best cards close and doesnt allow others to see anything until the season starts. there are obvious questions at rb. but there is also a good amount of depth. even having to split time between rb’s Texas should still field a strong ground game. the amount of depth at wr and that we have a solid colt mccoy returning will probably loosen the restraints on the ground game aswell because no one is sure what texas will bring in the area. everyone knows we can play pitch and catch. so a tangible is much easier to defend than an intangable. i could be totally wrong, but the one thing Texas always seems to have is a rb who will step up and make plays and almost always have a 1,000 yd season. who that player will be is anyones guess. but i know a strong o-line and a good recieving corps make for an easy day at the park for any rb with talent on a team that can defend the endzone. this is that team. so what if the player never is a house hold name. there WILL be someone to play the position and make a play when needed.
