Oklahoma St. vs. Texas Tech live blog

Let's take a look at what I've just learned.

1. The only team that can stop Graham Harrell is Graham Harrell. He needs to win the Heisman Trophy. The only way he doesn't is if he falls off of the face of the Earth.

2. Michael Crabtree is a better running mate than Sarah Palin. He's helping Harrell win the Heisman.

3. Mike Leach aka the Mad Scientist should be coach of the year. Who really saw Texas Tech being this good?

4. Texas Tech is definately better than Texas. Oklahoma State nearly beat them in Austin. Let's see how Tech does with a week off before heading to Norman.

5. Texas Tech should be #1 in the next BCS poll after Alabama needed OT to beat LSU.


10:15 Finally the blood-bath has ended and I'm exhausted. Somewhere Bob Knight is a happy man right now.

56-20 TTU

10:14 FIRST DOWN OSU. Haven't seen that in awhile. Too bad there's under 2 minutes left.

10:09 Screen to left and Woods tight-ropes down the sideline for a 16-yard gain and puts another touchdown on the board.

56-20 TTU I guess I was right earlier week. I thought this game would come down to the winner being the first to 50 and I was right. I just expected it to be a little closer than this.

10:05 Harrell's night is finally done. 40 of 50 for 456 and 6 TDs. Harrell for Heisman! It's now Taylor Pott's turn. I've heard that name somewhere before. I think he was on that show on ESPN with incoming freshmen football players. I think it's called Summer House or something like that.

10:02 It's another three and out for the Cowboys. When did Texas Tech learn how to play defense. I guess Mike Leach got creative this offseason. His team now has a rushing game and a defense to go along with his arial game. I'm not sure they can be stopped! That guy is a genius!

9:59 Red Raiders fumble again! They lose it again! I guess that's the only way their offense can be stopped. They need to lay it on the turf a few more times and OSU needs some quick strikes and we might have a game again.

No..no I don't think that is possible. They're down 29 with 6 minutes left.

9:58 Breaking bleachers and passing them up to get rid of them? Never heard of that one before but very intersting. Nice reporting Lisa.

9:55 OSU now punts after a three and out. That's just what they needed. Give it back to a team that doesn't know how to not score. This just keeps getting worse for Mike Gundy. Thankfully he's a man and will be able to handle the beating.

9:52 Commercials...commercial...How I'm really starting to hate you right now. This game needs to end quick because it's beginning to get painful to watch. I'm really starting to feel bad for the Cowboys. They're completely over-matched. And I thought they had a chance coming into the game. I guess NOW we all know Texas Tech IS FOR REAL.

9:47 Another touchdown run for Woods on a 13-yard scamper.

49-20 TTU This is just getting rediculous. The only thing that has stopped Tech is Tech. If it weren't for a fumble on the first possession they could be perfect!

9:44 And Tech is again past midfield. They just keep on rolling.

9:39 What a mistake! Robinson looking toward the endzone and it's picked off by a diving Macbath at the 4-yard-line. Robinson didn't have a receiver in the vicinity of that one.

9:34 The Cowboys are looking to score again. Robinson rushes across the Tech 40 and then finds Bryant inside the 20.

42-20 at the end of the third. State may be driving, but this isn't looking good for them. It's going to take a miracle for them to win this.

9:26 And it's Harrell to Crabtree again. High toss to the corner and Crabtree brings it down with one foot in.

42-20 TTU This game is as good as over. The Red Raiders offense just can't be stopped.

9:24 Screen pass taken inside the 20.

9:23 Deep ball to the endzone and it's in and out.

9:20 Tech looks to score again.

9:17 Hunter runs it up the middle for the touchdown.

35-20 TTU

9:15 Davis goes up and snatches it out of the air at the 10.

9:13 Robinson finds Bryany and he dashes down the right sideline to Tech's 39. They need some more big gains like that the rest of the way.

9:12 OSU starts at their own 24.

9:08 Harrell finds Crabtree on the slant and Tech has opened this thing up.

35-14 TTU OSU better sure up their defense cause there's no way they're going to come back if they can't stop 'em.

9:07 Raiders inside the 10.

9:02 It's a fumble! Pettigrew loses it at midfield. And the Raiders take over looking for more.

9:00 And the second half is underway.

28-14 Texas Tech at the half. Lucky for the OSU they get the ball to start the second half. They need to get back within one score.

8:38 Hail Mary and Bryant gets his hands on it. He nearly catches. He would have it weren't for his own man getting in his way!

8:36 Tech calls timeout after a completion to Dez Bryant. It was his FIRST of the game. That's just shocking since he's statistically better than Crabtree by a hair.

8:33 The ball is thrown deep to Bryant looking to respond but it's jarred loose.

8:30 Handoff to Woods for the touchdown with 47 seconds left in the half. This offense never ceases to amaze me.

28-14 TTU

8:28 Timeout Tech.

8:27 And Crabtree snares one out of the air to get the Raiders inside the 5.

8:26 Harrell scrambles but finds man open for 20 yard gain.

8:25 A simple pitch and catch to Crab at OSU's 40. How did he get wide open?! He's the best receiver in the country!

8:23 Tech starts at the 27. A short run and then a completion to Woods across the 40.

8:16 And Toston busts it in for the touchdown.

21-14 TTU Now let's see if if 'boys D can stop this Raider arial attack.

8:15 On 3rd and goal the receivers is knocked down. Pass interference! 1st and goal from the 2.

8:13 And Hunter picks up a hard earned first down at the 8.

8:11 Hunter and Pettigrew are doing it for the Cowboys now. They're at the 11.

8:09 Hunter breaks it outside and across the 50 down to Tech's 32. They're in business now.

8:07 Big play to Pettigrew across the 40.

8:06 OSU needs to counter.

8:03 Cowboys blitz...Harrell to Crabtree on a slant and he drags his man into the endzone for a 9-yard score.

21-7 TTU OSU better do something quick or this game is going to be over real soon.

Finally a break in the action. I'm getting hungry!

8:02 Woods picks up first down with a run on 2nd and 1.

8:01 Another third down completion to Morris.

8:00 Another completion to the 35. Back in OSU territory.

7:57 Start of quarter number 2! And TT picks up another first down.

7:54 Harrell is smacked in the head. No call??

7:53 Another big play to Morris for a first down. Crabtree follows up with another one.

7:49 And Tech holds AGAIN on third down, but Morris lets the punt get by him for a 71-yard kick to their own 3.

7:48 OSU calls time with the clock winding down on 3rd and 7.

7:46 OSU looks to respond.

7:45 Touchdown Tech! Harrell to the left to Morris who walks in.

14-7 TTU This game won't slow down!

7:44 Harrell scrambles and dumps it off to Woods who scampers for 22 to the 2.

7:42 Harrell plunges forward for a first down.

7:41 The review is in...incomplete pass.

7:39 A first down grab but a fumble! TT jumps on it, but it's under review.

7:36 Cheeky little left-handed toss by Harrell to the back who takes it for a first down. Then another first down to Crabtree. These guys just don't stop!

7:34 Whew. Finally a TV timeout. I can now catch my breath and get changed and start on my dinner.

7:32 The ball is batted down at the line on 3rd and 6. Pettigrew was wide open over the middle. OSU has to punt.

7:30 OSU is now up again.

7:26: Britton with a 16-yard over the shouler catch trying to stay in for the touchdown. Het gets one foot in before sliding out of bounds. What a touchdown grab!

7:25 Back to back first downs after a Crabtree catch and a screen to Batch. This team is responding well.

Harrel goes 5-5 with 51 yards on the drive. Wow!

7-7 This is going to be one high-flying game. Better buckle up.

7:24 Batch with huge run down the left side for a 38-yard gain. Tech has never been that big of running team until this year.

It's 7:22 and I've just gotten home from the Hawks game and Oklahoma St. has already scored on a 2-yard run, capitalizing on a Harrell fumble. They've just kicked off to Tech.
