Texas Tech Receives Unofficial Invite to Gator Bowl

Posted: Nov 19, 2007 09:59 PM

NewsChannel 11 has learned Texas Tech has an unofficial invite to a bowl game.

Oklahoma came into Saturday's game #4 in the nation, but left Lubbock #10 in the BCS standings after the Red Raiders defeated the Sooners 34-27.

The Red Raiders are now number 24 in the USA Today Poll and 27 in the BCS Poll. Those rankings are grabbing people's attention including Gator Bowl President Rick Catlett.

Catlett says he wants Tech, but two things must happen first.

Two teams from the Big 12 must make the BCS and the Cotton and Holiday Bowls must pass on the Red Raiders.

The Gator Bowl will invite Tech to its New Years game if Tech is available as the fifth pick from the Big 12 Conference. The Gator Bowl is played in Jacksonville, Florida.

I am not surprised..... It makes sence for the Gator to take a Big 12 team now, otherwise they have no chance at WVU or ND in the next two years.

Pizza Bowl here we come, The Car Care wants Rutgers and the 10k they will bring, we had a weak showing when we went 2 years ago. The Big East really needs better bowl games. Atleast B-Ham has improved their bowl slightly. They do have a pep Rally the day before the game.

I hope we can get Southern Miss if we have to go, nothing would be better than killinf the Eagles again.

****, guess whatever bowl the Gators go to will be where I go but i'm willing to consider Charlotte if we go there because we will play an ACC team.

That would be nice for the win column but not in terms of relevance.  At least if we beat someone like FSU that would have in-state implications.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
