Monday Notes
It's pretty quiet, although I'm sure that things will pick up as the week progresses, considering all major Texas newspapers follow the Longhorns.
Shannon Woods "lobbies" for more touches. I don't know if he's really lobbying for more touches or if the question asked was whether or not he wished he could see more touches during the game. The obvious answer is yes, he would. I would second this as I believe he can be a game changing running back because of his speed and he has size, or at least more size than you assume.
The DMN notebook has a few interesting tidbits, the most interesting was that Fletcher Session started but did not record a tackle. That's disturbing. You would think that a linebacker would just run into the opposing team's running back at least a couple of times. Also, let's not forget Kellen Tillman. My memory is getting more and more foggy as the day continues and I cannot seem to find this information, but I seem to recall the Tech announcers pointing out a very late and unnecessary hit. That's the second one this year and that Tillman has had a 15 yard penalty. That will cost us greatly against the much better teams. FYI - Texas Tech had 14 penalties for 129 yards. That's not good.
A pick-me-up article from D. Williams, LAJ, about Antonio Huffman, who believes that Tech could be doing this every week.
We have "good news". Good in the sense that Tech will not have to face one of Texas' starters this week, DT Derek Lokey, broke his left leg against Nebraska.
Finally, an interesting exchange between DMN beat writer, Tim McMahon and Coach Leach. Good times.
