Such a huge thing for half my family and all my Panhandle peeps. 3 of my uncles went to Tech. One passed away in 2023. One had a stroke in 2021 and is still recovering. And one doesn’t care about football. But my uncle Bill who had the stroke is crying right now. He’s so happy and this is the biggest thing in the world for him. Happy for my friends and Family. Wow. 😮

I do not believe Big 12 teams beat any of their SEC opponents this year.  But Arizona State did  lose to Mississippi State and then beat Texas Tech.  Yes, Texas Tech truly is a fucking juggernaut.  

You mean the same Mississippi State team that had Texas down late until they stupidly punted it deep and then lost in OT?

You are right, what type of play-off caliber team could possibly struggle in Starkeville?

I actually think Tech has a really good team. It doesn't seem gimmicky, they pass the eye test for me. Just really good up front.

Yeah Tech earned their spot in playoffs

Tech's defense is playoff calibre. Not yet sold on the offense.

Very similar to blOU in that regard.

Their front is.  The secondary has been vulnerable.  There's a lot of question marks, but they've definitely earned this.

I don't think they'll win their playoff game.

That defense can hang with anyone but haven’t seen them tested against a team with a ton of speed.

Their offense will get them beat.

It all depends who Tech gets lined up with. I think they're locked at 4 unless Georgia loses. Then they go up to 3. If form holds, they host Oregon/Tulane but we all know it's Oregon. That would be interesting to see Tech's defense against a good offense. If they're 3, they get Ole Miss/Virginia.

Sark should go on national tv and say "you idiots had BYU ahead of us despite a terrible schedule and no quality wins, dont you think you missed that one". then wait until they give a legit answer

They won't.

I think tech ends up like the softball team.

makes the championship game but money alone can’t get you a championship. 

I would be pleasantly surprised with that result.
As a fan, my minimum expectation before the season was surpassed today with the win.  Would love for us to move up to the 3 seed, but it doesn't matter.  Obviously hoping the next game is a win.  We'll see.

Wreck Em!!!

MSU over ASU 24-20
Auburn over Baylor 38-24
Missouri over Kansas 42-31

I hope HC’s that had more money than tech pay attention to how they used the portal effectively. Some HC’s might want to pay some attention to the portal and pick players that will compliment the team or are Team Captains and shit like that. Just a thought if coaches want to make a portal impact. And pay attention to their off season. I can name about 5-7 HCs with more money who screwed the pooch on the portal,

It also helps to play in a really bad conference.

HCs should also focus on creating as soft a schedule as possible

If Tech can buy a roster like this basically overnight, why the fuck can’t we?  We better hit the mother fucking portal hard when it opens. 

We’re not in the Big 12 anymore.

Would you swap their roster with ours?

With Tech and aggy making it and we not, I expect the BMDs to go all in next year.

A man I knew my whole life was a Tech grad and a proud Red Raider. He was a stoic west Texan who lived his professional life and adulthood in central Texas. No matter how good or bad Tech football was, he’d go to every game they played at Texas or Baylor, usually by himself. He passed away a handful of years back, and I can’t help but think how proud and excited he would be today.

Agree fully. The defense can play with anybody.. but sometime with elite athletes in the backfield and out wide can get them. There are 3 maybe 4 teams that have that. 

They can't have a situation where Morton has to bring them from behind. That would be ugly. 

You can shit on their schedule or whatever but winning all 12 games by 20+ should get anyone's attention.

Okay, hear me out, guys...

Here's how you solve the Miami and ND debate:

Just put Texas in.

That would be awesome after all of the hubub the past week or so.  Nobody could argue it, other than what they thought they deserved.

That would be the beauty of it in a STFU moment.

Just like we destroyed Florida, Kentucky, and Miss State. 

Are you of the opinion that we have been playing the same level of football as those games?

Congrats to Tech for winning the roadkill version of the Big 12 lol.

Hell, we don't even exist any more.

What's Texas' excuse?  I mean Cinderella had step-sisters.  They thought they was all that too.

Is west Virginia's win over Pittsburgh the best non-conference win for the big 12 this year?

Iowa, Pitt and SMU all finished 8-4. I'm guessing Iowa would be the highest rated by power rating
