I thought you guys didn't like coaches that run up the score? If that's the case, why would you want Spurrier?

I wonder which slush fund he was being paid from. You must be so proud.

It's not about rules, it's about class. Leach has none.

He's got more than Bennett. SMU deserves better than a coach who not only takes the program down to it's worst record ever, but can't control his emotions after a loss.

What Leach did is inexcusable by ANY standard. You make yourself look more and more foolish defending the indefensible.

Oh please. Leach having his offense run until the the very end of the game is "inexcusable by ANY standard", but Bennett running across the field and shoving the Tech coaches ...

I know this was probably SMU's biggest game of the year, but it wasn't Tech's by a longshot.

We play Tech, TCU, and OSU in our first four games. I can assure you that the Tech game is the least demanding of the three.

I doubt that, but considering that we only beat SMU by two touchdowns I ...

Smoo, you have some valid points.

But the bottom line is that what Tech did was not illegal or outside of the rules of football. What Bennett did when he shoved our coach is both and could have caused someone to get hurt.

Do I blame Bennett for being angry? Not really, though I do think he ...

Oh puhhleeasee! He had already thrown 60+ passes in a hurry-up offense style the entire game. Scoring a meaningless TD against a team already beat does not MAKE SENSE, whether we are SMU or Okalahoma!

Bingo, Einstein -- those passes and hurry-up offense ARE Tech's entire offense. Do you think a ...

Kinda sad that you have to hope OU can do what SMU will never be able to isn't it? Maybe Coach Bennett can go have a good cry on Coach Stoop's shoulder.

"*sobbing uncontrollably* Coach Stoops, that big meanie Mike Leach ...

Here's the question which has yet to receive a direct response from ANYONE officially associated with Texas Tech football: "How do you justify trying to score one more TD from the 5-yd. line with :05 remaining on the clock - when you've obviously won the game by a score of 27-13 - and not taking a ...

Hey Pal-the truth is that if Tech decides not to play SMU in Dallas it will be Tech's loss. This is an ideal showcase for your program in a metropolitan area that produces more Division 1A prospects than any in the Nation. Just go take a look at OSU recruiting class over the last two years dotted ...

His take is quite different from the AP's story, but that's to be expected from the hometown newspaper.

The sad thing is that both articles make it look like SMU is so feeble that other programs should pity them, and that's terrible for the SMU players.

Yeah, like Mike Leach is going to say anything bad about his buddy Bob Stoops even if he did run up the score on him. Give me a break. After all, we all know how hard Stoops was trying to "stop" from scoring 70 against A&M last year. And I say this even though I enjoyed the fact that they did that ...

Somehow I suspect you were one of the Tech fans that rammed the goal posts into the A$M section after that game a few years ago.

No, not at all and I certainly didn't condone it.

But I also wouldn't condone my team's coach charging and shoving the opposing coach because he couldn't take the ...

I agree that SMU is improved, but strongly disagree that you'll see any sellouts again this season, or the next, or the next. Last night's game was 80% Tech fans easily. I sat in the family section and it was all Tech, and whenever Tech scored the entire stadium erupted except for a patch of fans ...

Bam Morris didn't even play under Leach, so your post is pretty silly.

Considering SMU's history of breaking every NCAA rule in the book, you are the LAST school that should be talking about building character and doing things the right way.

Your coach is clearly a "pity us" marshmallow, which ...
