So my daughter and her bf are coming to town for a concert Friday nite and wanted tickets. I said wait, but they jumped on a couple of tickets a couple weeks ago. A few days ago, her company gave her two.

So, now I’m in charge of unloading her two she bought, Section 108 Row 52. $150 per…let me know!

I think Chad deserves a walk on spot.

Monday morning discussion:

Has Nebraska fallen so far from grace, that it's not even as desirable a job as Arizona State?? Even with their conference status in limbo?? If you said yes, we wouldn't fight...

Wanna hear your arguments, but YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED to say the words "smokeshows, scenery, co-eds, etc"..... Strictly football talk.

- Tony Bradford Jr. was named to the Allstate AFCA Good Works team on Monday morning. DeRuyter said Tony is a guy who is constantly looking outside of himself. He wants to serve as a police officer when football is done. His attitude is always positive and he's always a teammate. This accomplishment is very much earned by him.

- Dadrian "Rabbit" Taylor-Demerson played through the whistle to get to the ball against NC State, which is what DeRuyter wants from his entire defense. One of the four P's of takeaways is purpose and Rabbit attacked the ball with purpose. The other three P's are preparedness, physicality and population.

- Steve Sarkisian has been doing this a long time and is one of the elite play callers in the game, DeRuyter said. With that said, they're expecting a balanced approach on defense to defend the run and pass game.

- DeRuyter said sometimes not creating turnovers is by circumstance. They need guys to help Tyree Wilson, for example, get to the ball. They have tight coverage but regardless they need to run to the ball and create pressure on QBs.

- Malik Dunlap returned to NC State and DeRuyter said they went after him. The length at DB for the Red Raiders showed in their defense on Saturday on how they disrupted plays.

- Tyree Wilson can collapse a pocket very well. But what surprised DeRuyter about him is his quickness off the edge when the run is going away from him. He makes tackles and runs to the ball every play. Tyree was a primary example in walkthrough on players straining to make plays. They want everyone putting in that effort.

- Bijan Robinson, in DeRuyter's eyes, is probably the best running back in the country. He has tremendous vision, jump cuts and spins. He's compact and bounces off of guys then he has speed in the open field. He thinks he'll have a tremendous career but hopes not to see that on Saturday.

- Both Quinn Ewers and Hudson Card have taken snaps for Texas. With Ewers out it'll be Card on Saturday. DeRuyter said they both have similar skill sets. They're typical highly-rated players at Texas.

- DeRuyter called coach Marcel Yates one of the premiere secondary coaches in the country. He has the DB room learning and growing. He stresses on minimizing weaknesses and capitalizing on their strengths. They're sponges and Yates is giving them the coaching they need.

-

I know it's hard to keep up with all of those charged and indicted in Trump's orbit, but the latest is Steve Bannon, former White House chief political strategist, indicted Thursday on money laundering after he's alleged to have pocketed more than $1 million from taking advantage of the gullible in the "Build the Wall" fundraising scheme. It couldn't happen to a nicer asshole. Of course, Trump feeds off the gullible and naïve as he's done all his life. The latest is the millions he's raised (more accurately, stolen) for his "election fraud" fund.

This is on the heels of the longtime Trump Organization CFO pleading guilty last month to 15 counts ranging form grand larceny to tax fraud.

Others who have been indicted or would have been without a Trump pardon including his personal attorney Michael Cohen, former campaign chair Paul Manafort, resident loon Roger Stone, and NSA advisor Michael Flynn,

But only the best people and draining that swamp.

ULM transfer wing and Lubbock native Russell Harrison has committed to Oklahoma State.

This means Tech must feel good about some of their other targets (Welch, Fisher, Mayer, etc)

Only changes come due to Bryce and at PR.

Through 3 games so far Tech is -5 in turnover margin.

We've committed 8 turnovers through 3 games of play, while forcing only 3 turnovers in that same time period.

Donovan Smith-- 5 picks
Behren Morton-- 2 picks
Drew Hocutt-- 1 fumble

Reggie Pearson-- 1 pick
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson- 2 fumble recoveries (Giving him credit for the NC State fumble since he forced it and it went out of the endzone)

"I'll make sure it doesn't happen. I don't wanna hurt anybody's feelings."

Saw this floating around on twitter and thought I’d post here in case it hadn’t already been posted. If you feel lead to, please share a positive message for Bryce in his recovery. Plenty of Red Raiders, NC State fans and other big 12 fans have already sent him some words of encouragement.

Naturally he was back at practice today.

Some minor shakeups this final week of non-con for most of the Big 12 with Kstate losing in embarrassing fashion and Kansas proving they are the real deal.

1. Oklahoma (3-0 0-0, Last Week 1)- Dominated lowly Nebraska. All sides of the ball played well but they should have against a team that fired the coach this early in the season. Will play Kansas State next week who has had their number in the past.
2. Oklahoma State (3-0 0-0, LW 3)- Beat Arkansas Pine Bluff 63-7 as expected. The only interesting thing about this game to me was Mike Gundy’s son passing for 2 TDS. They are off this week
3. Iowa State (3-0 0-0, LW 4)- Destroyed Ohio University which doesn’t say much. Seem like a complete team but we have to wait and see how they do against Baylor next week in Ames.
4. Baylor (2-1 0-0, LW 6)- Beat up in Texas State isn’t saying much but they looked good and shook off the rust from losing to BYU the week before who took an ugly loss to Oregon this week. They will try and jump Iowa State in the rankings this week.
5. Texas (2-1 0-0, LW 7)- After a shaky start the longhorns turned on the jets and ended up comfortably beating the roadrunners who are a very solid team. Game plan of give it to Bijan is an effective strategy netting them 183 yards and 3TDS. Travel to Lubbock this week.
6. Kansas (3-0 1-0, LW 9)- Manhandled the Coogs in Houston. The result seems to confirm that the Jayhawks are a legit team this year. Jalon Daniels may be the best QB in the conference and so far it doesn’t seem very close. Duke travels to Lawrence this week.
7. Texas Tech (2-1 0-0, LW 5)- Game felt worse than the final score indicated. Offense and Special Teams had essentially no positive takeaways but at least the Defense looks like it could be one of the strongest in the Big 12. Multiple injuries plagued the Red Raiders, QB play/scheme was questionable, and Kenny Perry’s ST unit needs a come to Jesus moment. A lot of the harsh feelings from the fans would be gone if Tech beats UT in Lubbock.
8. Kansas State (2-1 0-0, LW 2)- I had them ranked way too high last week, clearly. Losing at home to Tulane is pitiful and a bad look for the conference. They still can pull the Typical KState and win the Big 12 but hard to see how with horrible QB play and play calling that doesn’t use their all American RB more. Sooners up next.
9. TCU (2-0 0-0, LW 8)- No game. Burn their bye week early this year. Don’t get to jump anyone while on Bye. Good storyline vs SMU next week.
10. West Virginia (1-2 0-1, LW 10)- Took their pain out on a garbage Towson Tigers. Desperately needed their first win after a slow start but their loss to Kansas is looking less embarrassing. Have historic rival Virginia Tech on Thursday.

Player of the week: Kansas QB Jalon Daniels (again)- 5 touchdowns accounted for by Jalon in the Jayhawks win at Houston.

Team of the week: Kansas (again), once again the most impressive win of the conference as most teams played cupcakes or lost.

- I’ll start here: Keith Patterson built up a strong defense and Tim DeRuyter is putting in the work to make it even better and that side of the ball is working.

- What’s not working is this offense. I’ve seen people call out the play calling and I’ll have to agree there for the most part. It doesn’t seem as though Kittley has a true game plan for Donovan and probably not even Behren. The plan was for Tyler Shough to run the show and obviously things have changed but the offense doesn’t seem to have adapted to that.

- Next week feels like it’s going to be a rough one with how strong Texas’ defense is. I already see them dominating the Red Raider offense. Meanwhile, I see the Tech defense making plays as it has but they’ll need the Tech offense to do it’s part and score often. We didn’t see that against NC State especially early when the Wolfpack was up 6-0 after red zone trips. Defense was stepping up but the offensive execution needs to be there.

- With all of those factors I don’t see a change occurring at QB. I think Smith is still the starting QB but possibly with a short leash. They can’t let a repeat happen from last year’s trip in Austin especially at home. They’ll need to try to fix the problems early if they begin to snowball. The inexperience of Donovan is still an issue but at the end of the day he has more of it than Behren, which is why I don’t see a change happening.

- Injuries are so unpredictable but have proven to hurt the Red Raiders once again. A big one is Weston Wright. You need a veteran presence on offense right now and that a huge hit in that front five.

- It’s also worth nothing that this team was pretty much all inherited from the last staff. Even with that said, they’re 2-1 after two tough non-conference games to head into Big 12 play. It doesn’t get easier from here. That makes me nervous but also excited to see where this team will finish.

Bryce Ramirez is just out of his second surgery.

Another weekend of Big 12 football has passed and I power ranked each team in the conference. Let me know what you think...do you agree? What changes would you make?
