  • The bad blood between Texas A&M and Texas Tech has been boiling for a few years since the fans actually got into a big fight in the stands up in Lubbock. It's become one of the most heated rivalries in the Big 12. We all know that Leach pretty much says what he wants and stirs the pot a little bit. Of course, he may be right about this one. A&M never used McGee properly at Texas A&M. The kid was one of the best passers in TX high school history coming out of Burnet High. That's why his draft stock was up and it was expected that he would go in the third round. I have no love for Tech, but I do like the no BS approach of Leach.
  • Watch this and you will see why there is bad blood between these two schools.......literally.

  • Man is Mike Leach pissed or what the rage goes on.
  • He's just being Mike Leach.
