I was glad to see a beat down in the bowl but man that defense was atrocious. They were just physically out matched up front from the start on both sides of the ball. It was an impressive win but not against a quality opponent. Maholmes was quite impressive though. Only reason they stayed in the game as long as they did.

Personally I was not impressed by the offense. There were some very questionable calls. The rollout left play, passing when they should have run(feels weird saying that),but the creative plays worked well. Just wish they had more of that.

I wonder if it saved Cam's job or not. Personally I think he will be the scape goat that will go down for the offensive inefficiencies that almost got Miles does. Not sure who they would bring in next.

But hey going out on a dominant win feels nice for a change.

I do not think I have ever seen a shittier line from a Power 5 defense than TTU had. Brandon Harris did not know what to do with the 12 seconds he had to loiter in the pocket.

TTU, if they want to ever compete, needs to stop with the 2 star recruits and go get some 4's and 5's in cold weather areas...go get 300 pound defensive linemen who cannot tell you what a verb is out of community colleges and into Lubbock. Build on to that stadium -- Lubbock is always a tough place to play. But as of now, TTU is a school that hasn't had a good power running back since Bam freaking Morris and has relied on this shootout passing game. Look at OU. Become like them. They have a BALANCED attack year after year (not saying OU is sliced bread because they're not). Baylor, Houston, Okie State, and WVU are all the same. None of them ever get into the big show because they're gimmicky. I know recruiting is not easy, but I also do not see any 90,000 seat stadiums on any of those campuses either.

TTU is a lot like Arkansas...they're almost one of the big dawgs, but then they are what they are. They are behind the shuffle in identity big time. Football is their only true competitive sport. If they want to improve and be somebody, they need to change their formula.
