Football Schedules
Where are all the comments about the poor scheduling by Texas Tech? Is that only reserved for SEC schools?
Perhaps, however for this announcement I have no problem with them scheduling a local rival.
Seriously man! The SEC is a conference, not a school. And this story is about Texas Tech.
I said SEC schools, GEG not the SEC. Mississippi State got blasted for a 3 games series with UMass. But that is OK to blast and SEC SCHOOL
an not and……. before my dumb southern ass gets corrected
