Time for a change of pace. I wish BOTH could lose, but I dislike Leach more. Wreck Tech.... UT by 10... 39-29.

That was my first instinct, but if you really hate both....you should root for Tech. Texas shouldn't come close to losing again, while Tech still has OU and OSU.

im pulling for TECH, my hatred for UT and the fact that i like seeing #1's loose make this an easy choice!

I like seeing #2's loose - easier on the colon

I dislike Texas Tech. I hate their fanbase(I never felt more unwelcome in an opposing team's stadium than I did in Lubbock in 1997 & 2000).

I hate the Longhorns. I hate their fanbase, douches all.

It's Tech in a squeaker.

I hate to say it but I want for UT to win. I've decided that Tech must die. How did they build a successful program in Lubbock and we are suffering in a real place? I know they are in the Big 12, but how did that even happen???

They hired an experienced Stoops assistant - just like Kansas did. Funny how that works. Wish we had a shot at that....wait, what?

I'm jealous of both programs. I was born and raised in UT country and I'd love to see Tech wreck Texas. Texas has all the money and prestige a school and team could ever hope for. They get things handed to them on a burnt orange platter. Tech has worked hard to get were they are. Go Tech! Ok, it may be because my daughter is a Tech freshman but I'd love to see Texas take this one on the chin!

I'm no Texas supporter, but they worked and built the thing for years. Yes, the system we have now favors them, but it's not like football jesus (non caps here as to not offend) simply decreed that Texas would be number one forever and ever since the beginning of time. They built a program and now that they are maintaining and expanding their success, we want them torn down because it's not fair that we suck so bad and are being embarrassed right now.

With the exception of a middling Kansas, TT hasn't played anyone. This will be a big test for them, and I don't think they have the line play, their kicking game sucks, and their defense is still not where it needs to be. If Texas can pressure Harrell with 4, and McCoy is turnover free, Texas will win by 2 TD's.

I generally dont deal in superlatives, but is this the biggest game between two Texas teams...ever?

Both undefeated with a shot at national title in a game that is on primetime national television. Im having a hard time thinking of another of this magnitude.

Maybe UNT v SMU.

Or UH v UT in 1990.

I hate Leach and Tech. My favorite Leach joke (something I read on this board) is "Tech's drinking coach has a football problem."

I'm rooting for Texas, but I wouldn't bet on this game with Warren Buffet's money.

I absolutely love Leach, hate Lubbock, and despise all things UT.

The stars seem aligned for Tech to pull the upset. I'm certainly pulling for the Little Red Raiders. Dream scenario.... the student body free rent kicker nails a 30 yarder as time expires.

Alas, I predict UT by 21+

Leach is the best thing to happen to college football in years. Dry humor, tells it like it is, and hillariously stubborn. I've been fortunate enough to have a beer with the man, and he's the kind of guy that can and will talk to you about anything and everything under the sun. He truly is one of a kind...and in a positive way. If you don't think he's made a major impact on not only the Big XII but college football in general, then you just haven't been paying attention.

Go Tech! Time to get some monkeys off your back.

      What is this program missing?

      What's so frustrating is that we were there, on the cusp. We were THAT team. WE HAD THE MOMENTUM (starting in 2017) until Littrell's flirtations with KSSt. The wheels fell off after that.... starting with Fine's injury in the NM Bowl game that year, then Harrell getting hired away & replaced by Bodie Reeder. The next season, the lackadaisical SL showed up and he wasn't having fun anymore. No more high energy, "Get after their asses!!". Instead, it was low energy, "we gotta do better in all 3 phases".... Then, we fired Littrell, and rightly so, but brought in Great Value Seth Littrell to replace him, which was a bone-headed move.

      Kevin Henry-Jennings: South Oak Cliff QB

      He was only recruited as a reserve; mainly to get in on the SOC/Dallas pipeline. (15 minutes away). Their guy was 4-Star QB Preston Stone of Parish Episcopal. Stone was injured and hasn't performed up to expectations. Jennings exceeded expectations. Not great but effective.

      New Commit....Cahmai Crosby, combo guard......Kilgore JC

      Well, not a lot to go on other than the attached video on Crosby. Haven't found an entire game yet. This staff has done a great job with juco pickups over the years, so I can't question this one. Curious why the lack of quality offers though. The Thomas signing is ok considering he just started his senior season in high school. He looks a legit 6-7 with a very good body build. He could develop his game more but he is not the "great" recruit as advertised. I have subscribed to NFHS for a number of years now and recently saw his playoff game against Plano East last year. He's an above average HS center (presently) on a loaded Allen team. I'm sure we signed him to play the 4 as he does not have a perimeter game. Wish we had signed DJ Hall of Plano East who is better. Kid signed with Texas State as their highest recruit ever. Never saw any UNT offers.

      Defensive recruiting/coaches have taken a backseat to offensive recruiting/coaches. I truly hope Morris quickly figures out that defense is necessary for winning. We just can’t rely on out scoring teams. I also hope Morris starts protecting the defense with his offensive play calls. When the defense just got off the field after a long drive by the other team, don’t be so aggressive with long passes that have us turning the ball over in less than a minute. Try to burn some clock and sustain a drive allowing the defense to rest and get adjustments from coaches.

      There is a certain coach in the Piney Woods that fits that criteria and has wanted to be at UNT for years.
