Since the schedule came out, the first 6 games were all seen as a preliminary test. But this final game of the 6 was circled from day one. Could we really position ourselves to compete for a spot in the Big 12 title game? Indeed, panic reigned after our first 2, yet here we are, coming off our most impressive performance, right where we wanted to be at 2-0.
Now we'll face a ranked bipolar Wildcat team coming off their big upset at #10 Utah, following their equally terrible effort vs KSU the prior week. TT has the opportunity to support McGuire's claim that everything goes thru Lubbock.
Forget ACU and screw WSU. Damn Vegas and their odds makers and our prior road debacles. Saturday night I'll be in Lake Placid, the site of the miracle on ice, watching the game. We can do this. I don't want to look at 5 pages of stats and opinions. It wasn't pretty, but this team has put itself in position to stake a claim in the revamped Big 12. Drink some red Kool Aid. Skin a wildcat and greet the bears with a sea of red at the Jones. Then watch the red wave flow down to Ft Worth the following week. Don't give me any negative vibes, just give me another glass of that red crap.
