    PODCAST: Talking Texas Tech, the Big 12 & more

    Tx St was family weekend which helped it to sell out. Avg attendance according to the NCAA stats has been 57,928 that is under capacity of 60,454. I would hope Tech pulls 53k+ for the game. The 11am start will hurt the attendance numbers.

    Tech's Offense is a lot less scary than they seem

    I don't really feel like getting into a whole debate over TCU but... 1.) Every team has to replace starters. On the defense we lost starters. The undersized at DL thing is kind of over-hyped in my opinion. The announcers in the game kept mentioning it and TTU still got stops. I'm not sure you...

    Greetings, Cyclones!

    KK has been trying to mess with the opposing coaching staff with the depth chart all year. Everyone thought Mayfield would start vs SMU but he made a point not to announce it before the game. It was announced today Mayfield not out for the season. But KK said no decision had been made on who...

    Tech's Offense is a lot less scary than they seem

    1.) Nobody is arguing Tech has played great offenses. Just that the Tech defense has played well. The defense has gained as many turnovers through 5 games as they had all of last season. KU ran for 390 yards vs TTU last season. Even if you take out the sack yardage etc they only gained...

    Greetings, Cyclones!

    I disagree with UNIGuy4Cy. That said anyone want to tell us about the Cyclones?

    Good game Cyclones.

    Good game. I'll give you a few observations from an opposing fan point of view. Take them or leave them. Your defense is good. LBs were as good as advertised. Your DL was good as well. DBs played well despite our receivers having the height advantage. They tackled well. Your offense... I...

    Hey Cyclone fans, Raider here (sorry for the long post)

    We didn't get a new WR coach. We did get a JUCO WR but I'm not going to call him a stud. So nothing really changed then? So I guess TTU won't get a passing TD again and ISU wins by the exact same score as last year? Or you still have to prove it on the field and they are going to go ahead play...

    Hey Cyclone fans, Raider here (sorry for the long post)

    1.) Why do you have a hard time imaging Tech WRs are well-coached enough to win big games? Do you think the Tech WR coaches are bad coaches then? Here is who I don't really worry about at WR. Alex Torres... He's done it in big games. For example in the win @ #3 Oklahoma he had 4 receptions...

    Hey Cyclone fans, Raider here (sorry for the long post)

    They have played him on the line and flexed out. Though he is more of a pass catcher and needs to work on his blocking to be better all-around player. They still list him at IR though since our base set is more 4 wide. Tubs and OC Neal Brown are trying to build up the TE position which was...

    Hey Cyclone fans, Raider here (sorry for the long post)

    I actually feel better about the interior of our DL than the DEs. Kerry Hyder has two seasons of experience. Leon Mackey is a SR has playing experience though he has moved from SDE to playing inside this season. Dennell Wesley came to Tech from JUCO before last season and played in 12 games and...

    Hey Cyclone fans, Raider here (sorry for the long post)

    Hopefully it won't be too bad. It's basketball so if you can find a handful of talented kids you can do pretty well. The Texas teams generally fancy themselves football schools which is what they will say unless their basketball team is winning. Tech fans historically didn't get up for Big 12...

    Yeah I dunno about some of these posts by other TTU fans.
