Texas Tech - you will be missed.
Tech is like that red-neck cousin of yours.
No, not the irritating, mouth-breathing, illiterate, fanatical, raving lunatic red-neck cousin - that would be Nebraska.



We love you, Tech. But we're getting a little old for this shit. We'll be hanging with a better class of people from now on but, damn, we had some good times together. OK, OK one more weekend fling, but it's the last one!
Of course, my memories of Tech will always revolved around the indomitable Cap'n Mike Leach. The kooky pirate of college football turned Texas Tech into an entertaining and fearsome football program. On top of that Leach did the impossible, made Lubbock interesting. Why here he is now doing the local weather.
If you can't make time to watch the whole thing, at least fast forward to the 2:30 mark. Two words - raining mud. You're welcome.
But alas, Cap'n Mike befell the fate of misunderstood genius and was last year relieved of duty. Happy sailing to you, good sir. We'll always have Honduras...

While the Tuberville offense is humming along suitably, if comparatively un-Leach-like, the defense has really turned into a pile of flaming poo.
Those guys cannot tackle anybody. Such bodes well for Tyler Hanson and his band of fiesty yet disaffected brethren. Tommy has the cure for what ails you, boys, and it's called "horizontal defense", Tech style.

Buffs win the final match with the fun cousin. 42-21.
Farewell, Red Raiders. We wish you well. When the Big XII disintegrates in two years - which it inevitably will - we hope you find a good home. You'd genuinely love it in the Mountain West I suspect.
Adios, amigo.
