Tech barely beat Houston at home, I doubt the win at Tennessee.

They show up at home, on the road I doubt they get through an SEC schedule.

The difference is the level of competition is significantly lower. Big 12 is worse now than the ACC. You have to remember the BIG took the best programs from the PAC and the sec took the best from the BIG 12, leaving not much there so they absorbed teams that the bottom of the sec could beat.

I’m telling you I’ve watched tech for 30+ years they don’t have enough in the trenches or skill position to keep up.

Can't disagree. To be honest, I haven't watched a single Big XII game this season so I have no idea.

However, I lived in Big XII country for 15 years so have seen my fair share of Big XII ball.

Tech definitely had enough in the trenches and in skill position on 11/1/08.

You should be worrying about the Bulldogs.

That’s one year out of 20. They held Orakpo all day long that night without calling shite and it took a layup interception dropped, the refs calling nothing, and a fan blowing his whistle so our d stops to let Crabtree walk in the end zone to beat Texas.

Leach was a treasure and I respect the help out of him but there is a reason tech was a consistent 8-4 team. All that’s changed is they removed their 2 most difficult games and replaced it with a watered down schedule to inflate their W-L record

Some folks are just best being ignored. She is definitely one. Doesn't even sound like a true LSU fan using A&M terminology.
