What a drive! KU is probably doing the best they will do today on D, and we are moving it well. Crabtree makes the grab! GO TECH!!!

But…doesn’t Carona have to feel about thistall that a kid off the street took his job?

corona has a scholarship!

by Plano Jeff on Oct 25, 2008 11:31 AM CDT reply actions  

nice drive. i’d like to get a stop here. It’s a game about wasted possessions. have to complete drives.

by kayakyakr on Oct 25, 2008 11:31 AM CDT reply actions  

Special teams look pretty solid so far.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 11:32 AM CDT reply actions  

Tech’s kickoff coverage has been better the last two games.

carona needs to get the ball deeper

by kayakyakr on Oct 25, 2008 11:33 AM CDT reply actions  

This game will be tight to the end!

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 11:34 AM CDT reply actions  

Lets Go Tech

Get a turnover here and the momentum swings huge in our favor

by 2001Raider on Oct 25, 2008 11:34 AM CDT reply actions  

Who’s the hottie next to Leach?

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 11:35 AM CDT reply actions  

noticed that too, she was cute

did anyone else see the guy with the Tech shirt on standing next to Mangino?

Go register. Or else.

by Skin Patrol on Oct 25, 2008 11:47 AM CDT up reply actions  

you’d think we’d be better at pass D, given who they paractice against

by Plano Jeff on Oct 25, 2008 11:35 AM CDT reply actions  

Exactly what I was thinking. Don’t see to many of them. Mad props to Kansas for that!

by willthetechfan on Oct 25, 2008 11:37 AM CDT up reply actions  

our linebackers are getting sucked into traffic again, knocked around.

also, that was an earhole.

by kayakyakr on Oct 25, 2008 11:36 AM CDT reply actions  

Reesing…he’s good.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 11:37 AM CDT reply actions  

This game has no flow to it yet. Choppy.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 11:37 AM CDT reply actions  

Our d line is getting close.

by natsnagrom on Oct 25, 2008 11:39 AM CDT reply actions  

Close won’t mean much to Reesing. He can get out of the way.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 11:39 AM CDT up reply actions  

secondary :(

this is similar to what happened the first half last week except against a much, much, much better offense.

by kayakyakr on Oct 25, 2008 11:39 AM CDT reply actions  

we have to put up 7 here

by Plano Jeff on Oct 25, 2008 11:40 AM CDT reply actions  

1 st quarter goes to Tech, by virtue of the 1st 3 and out.

by natsnagrom on Oct 25, 2008 11:44 AM CDT reply actions  

this drive counts as a 1st quarter drive. if we don’t pick up this third down, then it’s dead even.

by kayakyakr on Oct 25, 2008 11:45 AM CDT up reply actions  

Dude, score is ALLLLL that counts. It’s a tie : )

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 11:49 AM CDT up reply actions  

i like how BB protects the ball

by Plano Jeff on Oct 25, 2008 11:50 AM CDT reply actions  

WOW!! He did get it.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 11:52 AM CDT reply actions  

We are down an offical, AND EMO has a TD.

by natsnagrom on Oct 25, 2008 11:52 AM CDT reply actions  

ok, just one stop defense

by Plano Jeff on Oct 25, 2008 11:53 AM CDT reply actions  

that looked like an achilles.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 11:53 AM CDT reply actions  

Williams has a new streak started.

by natsnagrom on Oct 25, 2008 11:53 AM CDT reply actions  

Feels like time for a TURNOVER.

by natsnagrom on Oct 25, 2008 11:54 AM CDT reply actions  

Imagine being this kid Williams

going from watching the game from the stands as a student to suiting up and playing for the team……..and doing a better job than the scholarship players!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by 2001Raider on Oct 25, 2008 11:55 AM CDT reply actions  

they should make a movie about him!

especially if we win the NCG!!!

Sure, why not.

As good a chance of that happening as anything else.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 12:01 PM CDT up reply actions  

If this continues as a shootout..............

We have a huge advantage……….two defensive stops and we get the ball after halftime

by 2001Raider on Oct 25, 2008 12:02 PM CDT reply actions  

Their crowd pretty much sucks. Very quiet. No atmosphere or vibe at all.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 12:03 PM CDT reply actions  

Let’s miss a play while we look at KU cooking eggs…

by natsnagrom on Oct 25, 2008 12:04 PM CDT reply actions  

good lookin’ eggs though.

by willthetechfan on Oct 25, 2008 12:05 PM CDT up reply actions  

Well....

it is Kansas. They were going to show a churning butter scene.

Who knew Harrell could run? : )

He’s no Sonny Cumbie, but he’ll do.

by willthetechfan on Oct 25, 2008 12:06 PM CDT up reply actions  

Graham adds a running threat to this passing game

by jeffinhouston on Oct 25, 2008 12:06 PM CDT reply actions  

those clips are outta context

by Plano Jeff on Oct 25, 2008 12:09 PM CDT reply actions  

Question… if we have to kick a FG, as close as it is, do you go with Williamson?

by natsnagrom on Oct 25, 2008 12:10 PM CDT reply actions  

Yes…and that’s a good question.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 12:11 PM CDT up reply actions  

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Give him the confidence because he is the future for this team on ST

by 2001Raider on Oct 25, 2008 12:11 PM CDT up reply actions  

17-19 213 yds, 3 td
Wow…

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 12:10 PM CDT reply actions  

Aggies...

will take a knee at the end of their game today. Even if they’re losing. "Cause that’s how they roll.

by ForestFlyer on Oct 25, 2008 12:12 PM CDT reply actions  

11.2 yds per pass/ 12.5 per completion

by xwvr on Oct 25, 2008 12:12 PM CDT reply actions  

THERE’s that TD that Shannon was striving for last week!!!

by natsnagrom on Oct 25, 2008 12:13 PM CDT reply actions  

that was nice…but Woods got hammered. Those KU kids hit.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 12:13 PM CDT reply actions  

So far this is the most solid game

Tech has played all year……running at full throttle

by 2001Raider on Oct 25, 2008 12:13 PM CDT reply actions  

hopefully they keep it up all game. Go for the kill!

by willthetechfan on Oct 25, 2008 12:14 PM CDT up reply actions  

You know, I have to agree. And to be honest, Kansas doesn’t scare me like I thought they would. I picked them to win 33-31, but that looks like about the worst prediction ever so far. Let’s just hold serve.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 12:14 PM CDT up reply actions  

i thought that one was one RCH short of being blocked

by Plano Jeff on Oct 25, 2008 12:14 PM CDT reply actions  

I agree – that was a little low coming out

by jeffinhouston on Oct 25, 2008 12:15 PM CDT up reply actions  

MATT DAMON WILLIAMS

Go register. Or else.

by Skin Patrol on Oct 25, 2008 12:14 PM CDT reply actions  

How many quarterbacks run a 4.4? I guess Graham falls into that category, jk.

by willthetechfan on Oct 25, 2008 12:16 PM CDT reply actions  

Williams huh?

Word on the internets is…..Trilica was seen entering a VERY exclusive and secluded European plastic surgery clinic. Just sayin’.

by ForestFlyer on Oct 25, 2008 12:17 PM CDT reply actions  

keep the heat on. this team can come back.

by kayakyakr on Oct 25, 2008 12:20 PM CDT reply actions  

Just feed it to Batch until they stop it.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 12:20 PM CDT reply actions  

That play is ALWAYS pointless…never gets more than 2.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 12:21 PM CDT reply actions  

he knows how to score

by Plano Jeff on Oct 25, 2008 12:23 PM CDT reply actions  

Wow...this is not

what I saw happening here. To those who predicted blowout…hats off!

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 12:24 PM CDT reply actions  

still another half to play though.

by willthetechfan on Oct 25, 2008 12:25 PM CDT up reply actions  

Agreed, but this just feels different this week.

by Tech92 on Oct 25, 2008 12:26 PM CDT up reply actions  

Andre Ware...

seems to like the Raiders more than the two deadbeats last week.

by ForestFlyer on Oct 25, 2008 12:24 PM CDT reply actions  

Andre ran an unrespected spread offense back when – he appreciates what it takes to run it well

by jeffinhouston on Oct 25, 2008 12:25 PM CDT up reply actions  

He probably has gone through the same crap said about him that tech has.

by willthetechfan on Oct 25, 2008 12:25 PM CDT up reply actions  

however,

OU only beat KU 45-31…. we’ll blow that out if we keep playin’ like this…
