Here are the stats for the two teams Tech and OSU have played in common this year.

OFFENSE
Opponent	OSU Rushing	OSU Receiving	TT Rushing	TT Receiving	Total OSU	Total TTU	Diff
ATM	215	186	111	450	401	561	160
Texas	113	199	105	474	312	579	267
DEFENSE
Opponent	OSU Rush D	OSU Pass D	TT Rush D	TT Pass D	Total OSU	Total TTU	Diff
ATM	184	218	20	286	402	306	-96
Texas	113	391	80	294	504	374	-130

As evidenced by the numbers, Tech has outgained their opponents by an average 213.5 yards this season and held them to an average 113 yards less per contest.

Against A&M, OSU had 2 defensive INTs returned for TDs and one punt returned for a TD. Seems this made the difference between their "blowout" of A&M and Tech's "struggle." The numbers do not support OSU as lining up and playing better on either side of the ball in either contest.

OSU did have 112 more rushing yards between the 2 games, but it is somewhat dwarfed by Tech having 539 more passing yards...

The battle in the trenches will never be more important than in this game.
Let's prove we're no longer susceptible to the "bad loss" that Seth wrote so much about this preseason!
WRECK 'EM TECH!
