The Good News is that 32k+ fans are being ENTERTAINED, as opposed to last years’ Big XII opponent OSU.
I too wish I was there…plan to attend at least one this season, but no game will top this one for sheer excitement, as this is our only sell-out.
Now if Chris can get on track.....

Gotta say, I'm liking the TTU timing on penalties--hard to argue with thus far.

Yea, if (on the chance things progress poorly) fans would remember the game as more than the score, it should increase attendance overall... doesn't tend to work that way though, sadly.
Still enjoying this one, I'm planning on one game this year as well.

The Ponies sound much more competitve even though behind by 2 touchdowns. I yearn for the day that we sell out Ford and it sounds like we are the home team on the radio. TT fans obviously outnumber us by a large margin. This is encouraging to hear the Ponies be in postion most of the time defensively and at least a solid if not great offense.

let's hope Tech is as tough as they were last year and that we really are much improved. Bottom line is that 6 pts won't win many games. This one is over...unless you bet the Ponies to cover the spread. Will be interesting to see how these guys respond and whether they are ready to compete with TCU next week.
Time to see what some other guys can do in mop up duty.

Changing SMU QB's produced a late game score. Hmmm.

There seems to be a better game plan. Passing was a little off from Phillips which I hope will improve. Eckert sounded good throwing. Good luck with the storm Charleston. I am much encouraged.

66 passes by Cumbie for 470 yards….wow
Overall, I am pleased with the effort and suspect this will be a real positive for our recruits attending the game.

Can't think of a better way to get me motivated than having our head coach go after the opposing coach.
I'm betting we see our fella's fired up this week through practice, and next game...
hopefully.

too bad the night had to end the way it did, but Leach apparently has never learned there is a point at which you call off the dogs...no matter what your normal style of play might be.

Don't recall seeing the coaches fight instead of players... likely I'm wrong here?
