Misery Index · Uneasy · ▼ from 97
Texas Tech is 7-1 and won by eight, yet the room still treats every Arizona snap like a one-play touchdown.
The emotional rollercoaster
Texas Tech fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Texas Tech beat Arizona 34-26 to reach 7-1, and the misery index dropped from 97 to 61, roughly the ceiling for joy in Lubbock. The defense supplied the dread: every "one play explosive TD" allowed became the week's turning point, proof to one fan that this unit is "a shell of last years defense." Pollock drew rage, Hammond was reassigned to Abilene Christian by popular vote, and third-and-long stayed cursed. A one-loss team won again, and nobody slept any better.
What fans said
“Hammond YOU are a Abilene Christian Wildcat!”
