Is anyone truly surprised by this?

I was.  Tech's defense, while getting a little better, is still somewhat of a sieve.  Figured Tech would get 30+, but WVU would hit close to 50 or more.

I wasn't suprised by the loss, but I was surprised by the magin. If Tech were to win, I was expecting a 52-45 type of score. I tought TT's defense was exposed by Oklahoma, but they proved me wrong.

Lubbock is a tricky place to play, also.  It was quite windy, it's very dry, and you're up about 3300ft. in elevation.  Not sky high by any means, but put it all together and it can be a significant X factor.  But I agree with you that if Tech won, it would be in a high paced shoot out on both sides.

So what do they set ablaze this evening after a tough loss? I thought this would be a tricky game but this was an absolute beat down.  Shocking.

Still couches. They're not particularly creative in Morgantown.

I feel like I need to get into the used couch business there, seems like you can clean up.

Yeah, they need couches.

To err is human. Really sucking requires having yellow stripes on your helmet.
