Texas Tech?

Think about it this way... of all three of those teams, who do you most think would look forward to a rematch of all of the games? It may be Texas, it might be Oklahoma, but it sure the heck ain't Tech.

Tech won in front of a hysterical home crowd in the biggest night game ever in Lubbock in a game that McCoy brought UT back on his shoulders only to see it fall apart after a dropped interception and an amazing last second play. OU blew Tech out at home in Norman. UT beat OU into 4th quarter submission by 10 points in front of a 50/50 crowd in Dallas. If you've never been to that game in the Cotton Bowl, you have no idea of the atmosphere and pressure of that game.

If UT and OU play 10 games, would likely go 5 and 5 or maybe 6 and 4 one way or the other. Tech plays UT or OU 10 times, they're lucky to pull off 1 or 2 wins if they were at home. They nearly got beat at home by Baylor and Nebraska for crying out loud. They got lucky.

Not complaining, it is what it is. Just tired of the OU fans acting like they got the best of UT this year, while it's quite the opposite. OU got lucky, any other conference with divisions (all 4 of them) would have sent UT to the CCG based on their tiebreakers.

Good luck OU, I hope you have the same success in your BCS games as you have in the last few attempts. Go Big Game Bob!! /sarc
