Turns out Nebraska isn't quite as hopeless as some people felt. A great game plan, keeping the ball away from Tech and even getting some pressure on Graham Harrell at times. Obviously, the key play of the game was Mike Leach going for it on 4th and 4 from deep in Tech territory. Harrell completes the pass to Michael Crabtree for a huge gain, and Tech eventually took the lead 31-24. But the Huskers...

Texas Tech's Mike Leach made sure his No. 7 Red Raiders understood how they jumped three spots in the rankings without playing a game. The rise was a product of the season's first upset-filled weekend, when Oregon State's shocker over No. 1 USC last Thursday sparked a flurry that took down two other top-five teams in Georgia and Florida. "We talked about just like John Wooden says, it's important to...

Mike Leach built the nation's best passing offense with little concern about a frequently woeful running game. Leave it to the free-spirited Texas Tech coach to embrace a little change of pace. The No. 10 Red Raiders, national leaders in passing offense five of the past six years, are running the ball as well as ever in nine seasons under Leach.

I might not have wanted the man around when he was being discussed as a potential UCLA coach, but there’s no doubt he’s worked wonders with the Texas Tech program. He’s got a gimmick offense that spreads the ball around with a crazy passing game and produces results. Apparently Mike Leach isn’t just [...]
