I’m sure you’ve all heard by now, but Kingsbury opened the press conference yesterday in a manner he hasn’t done since he started at Texas Tech: he offered an opening statement before taking any questions. All right. So I know Matt already told you all, but I felt the need to make an opening statement […]
Five Post Game Thoughts: ISU 66 – Texas Tech 10
There just aren’t words for what happened today. Here I was defending this team, fighting in all of these games, thinking we had seen the worst of it all when West Virginia came to Lubbock. Nope. Somehow they got worse. 42 Texas Tech was down by 42 points at half to a then 2-8 Iowa […]
Recapping the Presser: OSU – ISU
It’s always tough coming back after a loss. I think we can see this team getting closer, fighting the entire game, and those are improvements we are going to hang our hat on at this point. This team has two games left on the schedule, and both are winnable games (Baylor moreso now with Russell […]
Recapping the Presser: TCU – UT
Winning a game sure does feel good, doesn’t it? This team is still yet to turn in a complete game, all aspects effort, but the defense held TCU to 17 points in regulation and the offense did enough to win the game. Kingsbury shifted his play calls more towards the run, especially with the defensive […]
Post Game Thoughts: Tech 27 – TCU 24
What defense was that!? The defense played surprisingly well for a road game. The defense came up with stops when it counted. Not perfect, but good enough. Didn’t give up the big play. Held when it meant the most. Gibbs may be coaching for his job, and his team certainly helped him out today. Nonexistent […]
Recapping the Presser: OU – TCU
The power of Staking the Plains has been manifested! There seems to be less hesitation in the media in their questioning of Kingsbury and they were more direct, less feeding of answers. They asked substantive questions and I am taking credit. Also, i found it kind of hilarious that Patrick Mahomes was out there breaking […]
Recapping the Presser: WVU – OU
If you’ve been following me on Twitter or in the comments section these past few days, you know I can’t hide my frustration with this program now. Nothing seems to improve, from performance, to mentality, to anyone taking responsibility (that “apology” was garbage). Without being in the room during the press conference, I can’t tell you […]
Playcall Rewind: Kansas State
This week, we are looking at Tech’s first touchdown of the game against the Wildcats on the first possession of the game. Sorry, I previously owned the Samsung Note 7 and had to return the phone, you know, because they were constantly blowing up, so there won’t be a gif this week. It’s the first […]
Recapping the Presser: KSU – WVU
Well, that game went how we thought it would go, and yet not at all like how we thought it would go. Tech ended up losing by 6 points, pretty close to what Vegas predicted. Mahomes did in fact play (although what we saw in the second half from Mahomes could be argued otherwise). Tech […]
Recapping the Presser: KU – KSU
After a costly win against Kansas where we saw Patrick Mahomes go down with a shoulder injury and backup QB Nic Shimonek step in and perform admirably, we hear from Coach Kingsbury (video, transcript), Johnathan Giles, and Justis Nelson (video). Coach Kingsbury Expectedly, Kingsbury is first asked if he has an update on Mahomes and […]
