5-0 and furious: Tech fans watched a 22-point win and saw only a quarterback hurt chasing garbage points.
The emotional rollercoaster
Texas Tech fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Texas Tech went to Boulder, won 29-7, and moved to 5-0, which should have been a pleasant Saturday. Instead the fanbase spent the night arguing about the final minutes, when the clock kept getting stopped in pursuit of points that never arrived and the quarterback got hurt in the chase. One fan noted the coach "didn't even check on him." Another summed up the mood: "When you cheer more from your opponents mistakes than your own plays it's clear they lost this game more than we won it." Undefeated, and somehow furious.

“He kept calling timeouts to extend the end of the game for a vanity score that never came and got his qb injured... then didn't even check on him.”
