here we go Friday, November 7th this is the Pat Maccabee show. I'm A.J. Hawk sitting in at Pat's desk. Pat's in Lubbock, Texas. Big time matchup. Football! It's all the rage. Obviously, we had a beautiful game last night. It was a real barn burner 10 to 7, the Denver Broncos. They squeaked out a victory,

obviously, over the Las Vegas Raiders. I know, Pat, we have you down in Lubbock, Texas, in a beautiful

setting there, in a beautiful cowboy hat. What's going on, man?

Yeah, I'll tell you what, got a cowboy hat down here. We've got a lot of good vibes. Obviously,

this place has been electrified because this Texas Tech,YU game is obviously a top 10 matchup and this Texas Tech team is a real deal. They

got a lot of all money being pumping through this place. They got a lot of athletes. They got

great coaching. Coach McGuire will actually join us in about 20 minutes or so. He's doing

something very special here. Former high school football coach who makes the jump into college.

Now he's in the perfect spot because guess what?

His quarterback, Barry Moe, Barry Morton, his dad was a high school football coach for like 32 years.

So whenever you talk about love and passion for football while mixing good business, NIL and transfer portal, Texas Tech is seemingly in a beautiful place.

And I'll tell you what, I landed this morning, Gumpy and I landed this morning early Lubbock Texas it was a beautiful Texas morning

We landed and you know sun was coming up there was a beautiful color to the skies it was all happening

looking out over some Texas fields and all you just saw was an oil rig and and then a couple

hundred yards oil rig and then an oil rig and then a couple hundred yards

oil rig and there was a little bit of dew and it was a little chilly and it was like

holy hell I'm in a football movie right now and that's what it feels like down here

their students have been lining up since Sunday at 430 outside of the stadium so that

they can get in the general admission they can get front row seats in the student section taking on BYU. They started camping out on Tuesday for college game

day to try to get into the front to maybe make a kick. When you talk about love and ball from

time you're just a little baby all the way through your entire life, you think about West Texas,

which is where we are right now. So many movies have been made about this area and their love of ball and everything coming out of Raiderville, I believe is what it's called outside the stadium, is that they are pumped for Saturday. And this has been a week-long celebration. I have no idea if they have classes here. I have no idea. I know it's a, I know it's a university, but from the videos that I've been seeing all week, it's like this place is studying football right now. And there's a good chance this team can go on an absolute run. Behind me here, you see the saddle. Okay, and this saddle here is touched by the boys as they come out to the field here. The locker room down to the left, come out through here. We got a light show, obviously, going crazy as everybody knows.
