I have been to college football games across the country for decades and I have never heard tens of thousands of fans boo a fallen player from the opposing side as regularly as the Tech fans. They are the epitome of white trash. My family comes from Lubbock, and my mother is a Tech alum - although she now is an avid Mustang fan. She and I were appalled at the poor sportsmanship on such a massive scale. It's not just a few. Then they started throwing things on the field from the endzone.

Not news.

Tortillas when they score

I was honestly looking for a tortilla toss at the end of the band's show. I was going to do something I'd regret.

Every up-tempo team we play boos every team who they think are faking injury. I've witnessed UH, Baylor and many on TV. And don't kid yourself some of these injuries aren't. Its a defensive strategy. NCAA even addressed issue with new penalties. Kirk Herbstreet wrote about it last week

Save the energy for more important things like food fighting on ponyfans

My mom is not a Tech fan.

DJ was really ticked-off with the Tech fans. She hates them.

Lots of raider rash trash

They behaved better than I thought. I got a kick out of one Tech fan in front of me going to the police because another Tech fan in front of him wouldn't sit down. I was expecting much worse out of them.

I've also heard every other team boo when out players fall. It was just louder today because there were so many Tech fans. It's definitely on purpose to slow down a fast offense. The real question is why are we never prepared for a fast, no-huddle offense? We struggle against them year after year.

Throwing food on our field is trashy. Trash your own field all you want. I don't want to get all aggy in here, but it's a stupid bit.

If they threw cups it would be a warning/penalty.
