Congrats Coogs!

[Hookem Horns]

Awesome game and nice last minute beatdown of Trailor Park Tech. UH will move up quite a bit this week considering all the teams that lost today.

I didn't know Red Raider fans were such D-bags. http://mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=188&f=1650&t=4836116

They just need to concentrate on the UTEP game next week!

Thanks all for the well-wishes!

Is that game going to on T.V.?

[Showtime100]

Boy, what a game. I went and stayed with my folks last night and watched the game with my dad. I wasn't sure if he was going to make it through. Actually for a while there I wasn't sure if I was going to make it.

Just, what a game. I'm still a little giddy over the game.

Thanks Coogs and great job Cougar fans, you gave my dad and I a great present. What a game.

It's not just their fans, it was their entire team last year. The actual players were starting verbal arguments with the fans at KU last year 20 yards back of the field. The Tech coaches did nothing to stop them. Texas Tech is about as classless a program all around as Missouri. Hell, even K-State might have a little more class than Tech. I'm embarrassed on behalf of the Big XII to have Texas Tech fans and the university represent us in any capacity.

was a great win for the coogs, but rushing the field?

lol, a ranked team beat a non ranked team and rushed the field at home?

It's easy to say "act like you've been there", but really they haven't in a very long time. Really I can't remember a good Cougar team since the SWC.

I say enjoy it, Tech is still a good team and it was a nailbiter. Go Coogs!

Eh if you are going to rush the field make sure at least a majority of you do it.

It looks kinda silly when only 10% of the fans are in a frenzy and the rest are just standing by their seats clapping.

With that said, do we really care? When is the last time the Cougars were this relevant?

Houston had some really good success when the run and shoot was still running and shooting, aka before Klingler and the Coogs went to Miami. I agree, hell yes storm the field, it was a big win and Houston fans saw this as another rung in the ladder. Many of us almost saw the football program get the axe, we are a passionate bunch.

The replay is there for the game. Watch it again, Houston does have at least one good football team.

[Speedy]

At least one team in this town can play some good football.

Way to go Cougahs!!!

I can't believe Kirk Bohls of the Austin American Stateman wrote this...lol

10 things from the college football weekend
Monday, September 28, 2009

1. Say goodbye to the Heisman race, Jevan Snead. He looked horrible in the loss to South Carolina on national television and wasn't even the best player on his own team. That was running back Dexter McCluster, the next great thing at the NFL level.

2. So Texas punked UT-El Paso, as we all expected, and Colt McCoy re-establishes himself as a Heisman favorite.

3. Incredible stat of the weekend: 10 top 10 teams have already lost in the first four weeks of the season. ESPN reported that in the first month of the last three seasons, only 13 top 10 teams fell.

4. Kansas has quietly become the best team in the Big 12 North, with all due respect to a coming-on-fast Nebraska. The Jayhawks are 4-0 for only the eighth time since 1920. The only team capable of beating them may be the Jayhawks basketball team. Ba-da-bing.

5. Give TCU a world of credit. Yes, the ACC is back to his lightweight ways, but the Horned Frogs are 2-0 against the ACC this year. Furthermore, dating back to 2002, the mighty Frogs are 13-3 in their last 16 games against teams from BCS conferences. Go, Mountain West.

6. A Texas-Houston BCS title game anyone? OK, it may not happen. But old Southwest Conference fans can dream, can't they? That's the only way these two teams will face each other because Texas still doesn't care for UH and won't ever schedule a game with the Cougars.

7. Sam Bradford reportedly consulted with Dr. James Andrews, surgeon to the baseball stars, about his sprained shoulder. Maybe the Oklahoma quarterback is thinking if this football thing doesn't work out, the Phillies could use him as a closer.

8. Stat of the day: After one quarter, Florida had outgained Kentucky 223-1. Stat No. 2 of the day: After three games, Texas A&M defensive end/linebacker Von Miller has 71/2 sacks.

9. As good a job as Mike Sherman has done in trying to erase last year's 4-8 record, the Texas A&M coach really should consider getting Ryan Tannehill on the field more often. He's a big-time playmaker and a great receiver on the order of Kansas' quarterback and receiver Kerry Meier. The Aggies are better, but they don't have so much depth they can afford to leave Tannehill on the sidelines for the bulk of the game.

10. We may well see a two-loss team in the BCS championship, a la two-loss LSU in 2007.

Texas doesn't care for what Houston could potentially do to their precious ranking win or lose.

Also from the Statesman........

Tech suspends Carter

LUBBOCK — Texas Tech star offensive lineman Brandon Carter has been suspended indefinitely by coach Mike Leach for violating team rules.

The Red Raiders did not provide specifics Sunday night. They lost to No. 17 Houston 29-28 late Saturday.

Interesting.



Mike Leach: "Hey Matt (OL coach Matt Moore). Come here, I've got a job for you........Go tell Brandon he's suspended."

Mike Moore: ........um huh?........Huh!?
