Tom Walker hates Texas Tech quarterbacks

I’m not always going to use this as an open forum to complain about the horrid Big 12 refs, but Tom Walker needs to go back to referee school. For the second time in 3 years, Walker fails to protect a Texas Tech quarterback from an illegal hit. It almost seems like he is either [...]

Absolutely Obknoxious’ Big 12 Power Rankings: Week 3

After 3 weeks, it seems that the rankings are finally settling down from week 1… 1. Texas Last week: 1 (Even) Texas beat Texas Tech in Austin, but not the mud hole some Longhorn fans predicted. The 34-24 win kept Texas at the top of the poll, but the margin they held narrowed. Colt McCoy’s [...]

I don’t care where someone was ranked in the preseason, I am only ranking them on how they have played, [...]
