If Texas plays like they did against OSU then we have a chance.
I'll be there with my Longhorn wife and my Red Raider brother and Red Raider sister-in-law. We need tickets to get into Raider Gate now? Oh, and I'll be at Gameday, thinking up good signs as I type this. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

QUOTE (Hartmann @ Oct 27 2008, 08:28 AM) If Texas plays like they did against OSU then we have a chance. What do you mean? Other than the fumble inside the red zone and their inability to stop the run, UT played a great game. And not being able to stop the run doesn't really matter against Tech. Their offense actually played great. I think they had nearly 600 yards of total offense. The only problem is their starting field position was terrible. I think they had two or three scoring drives of 90 yards or more that took several minutes each off the clock. Where does Tech play OSU? I'd be worrying about them more than even OU. That is a damn good football team. I'll probably go to the game. I sold my UT/OSU ticket so I have a few hundred extra bucks. Where do y'all plan on sitting/tailgating? --------------------   |

Where do y'all plan on sitting/tailgating? From what I saw, there were multiple opportunities for OSU to take advantage of UTs slow drives down the field. Had the OSU defense been better against the run and holding McCoy to just a few yards, I think the game would have gone the other way. The game was definitely methodical and I think that's what won it for them. It just wasn't the performance I am used to from them. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

Where exactly is game day going to be at?
Andn Will we play OSU at home. This post has been edited by The Fanatic: Oct 27 2008, 06:31 PM -------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

QUOTE (The Fanatic @ Oct 27 2008, 07:31 PM) Where exactly is game day going to be at? Andn Will we play OSU at home. It's in Lubbock. Or are you asking where they'll set up? Probably in front of the Alumni center with a backdrop of the stadium. That or one of the athletic fields with a view of the stadium. That's what they did when they came for OU and Mizzou If Tech wins, do they jump to #1? Bama jumped to 2 after beating UGA and UT jumped to 1 after beating mobilehoma. They might end up getting screwed by playing a 1 loss OU, OSU, and unranked KU, and a Mizzou team ranked in the teens. Those teams were ranked 1, 3, and 6, and 10 (think Kansas was that high at some point) this season What is there to do in Lubbock? I don't really know anyone there anymore. No idea where to stay. Are there any bars that allow underage drinking? I might bring a girl who's 20. -------------------- |

QUOTE (The Fanatic @ Oct 27 2008, 08:22 PM) Are you going to the game? Hope so. If I can find another ticket for Leia I'm heading up there, then to Dallas for the NASCAR race which I have free infield tix for somehow. Are there any cheap motels around University? I know the one on 19th and Brownfield is close -------------------- |
