"Teams that want to play in March have to have good Februaries." That was head coach Jeff Mittie's message to his team as they prepared to start the second half of conference play with a home game against Colorado State University on Saturday.

I drove five hours this past weekend with hopes of watching one of the most anticipated college football games of the season. I was able to see the game, but unfortunately for me, it was on TV. Of course the game was the University of Texas against Texas Tech in middle-of-nowhere Lubbock in a matchup that will go down as the best of all time in that rivalry. (0) comments
