Anyone looking to offload tickets to this game? There’s quite a few on seatgeek and would love to avoid fees if possible.

Would love lower level as close as possible. Need 4 but can be split 2 and 2

Is crooked as a dog’s hind leg under democrat rule. Breaking news from the Wall Street Journal just came across my desk. Looks like NYC will have a hard time finding a new mayor who isn’t corrupt:

“New York City Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, the elected official who would replace Mayor Eric Adams if he resigns, accepted political contributions from the same businessman who is accused of orchestrating illegal donations to Adams.”

Good thing it's a night game. A fall heat wave will continue through this week and weekend in Tucson. Yes, it's Arizona. But typical high this time of year is around 90. Triple digits are expected each of the next few days. Friday should be the hottest, around 105.

Saturday's high around 102, sunny. Record high for the date is 101, last reached in 2020.

Kickoff in the upper 80s, end of the game near 80, clear sky. Wind light out of the east. Sunset is at 6:02.

Guns Up!

Pretend these are migrants or BLM, and not a gang of white thugs brainwashed by Orange Jesus so you can understand why the cult leader is a threat to democracy and why January 6th was so bad.

Hailey Murphy from the University of Montana has transferred to Tech. She will be a junior.

Going to be in Minneapolis Wednesday through Sunday. Looking for some good eats, drinks, sights, and places for a run or hike. Won’t have a vehicle but I’ll be in the downtown area and can Uber. Thx!

I'm sure most of you are familiar with The Solid Verbal podcast, if you aren't it is a high quality CFB podcast with multiple episodes per week.

they posted a week five reactions pod earlier today and were identifying some under the radar/hidden gem type teams and players, and at the 56:50/57 minute mark one of the hosts brings up Texas Tech...

I'm paraphrasing the conversation here, but feel free to skip to the 56:50/57 minute mark and hear them out...


4-1 record

3-of-4 wins – one score games

Defense: “dreadful”

99th in defensive success rate against the run

110th in defensive success rate against the pass

82nd in defensive points per drive allowed – does not include Abilene Christian (only includes FBS opponents)

Top 20 pass defense, in terms of ‘air yards per target’ – giving up 17 yards per successful drop back, which means teams are throwing short passes and the Tech defense is missing tackles (?)

This stat can be inflated by plays like the second half screen pass that went 70+ yards for a score, but the point remains in the sample size we have for this season through five games

133rd in tackle rate*

Offense:

Tech ‘super power’ is that they are all-time great ‘pain in the ass’ offense…

One of the best 3rd down offenses in the nation

112th in the percentage of times they get a 1st down on 1st or 2nd down

10th in 3rd down success rate – nearly half of these conversions are from 3rd & 7 or longer

Getting behind the chains and figuring out ways to extend drives…will not last forever, numbers will even out, but these numbers lend to more shootouts and close games for the remainder of the season

They suggest ‘taking a drink of something strong’ or ‘taking a puff of something’ to take off the edge before watching a Texas Tech game...

UK takes down Ole Miss.

Assume this is the only unsanitary thing you did all day

Always knew him as Seth from Beastmaster, then Cleo McDowell in Coming to America. Kunta Kinte - Roots and Good Times were before my time though.

Weird that he died on August 21 but just announced today.

I noticed this on Saturday, though that is probably because I was in person vs watching on TV, but it seemed like we are subbing offensive players way more than I was expecting. This is the epitome of a slow paced offense because we have to allow the D to sub as well. You don't have to try and run a hurry up where you snap the ball as soon as you can in order to still not allow the D to sub. I would think it would be advantageous to force the D to keep the same personnel on the field, even if you're not looking to snap in a hurry. Could this also be why when we do go to a true hurry up we seem to always have pre snap penalties or folks not prepared, because we bounce between super slow and too fast paced?
