Patterson: Each conference road game presents a challenge

Published Sep 28, 2010

Head football coach Gary Patterson spoke about his team's chance to play for a national title at this week's press conference, a subject he usually avoids.

"I think I have a lot more argument this year (than last year)," Patterson said. "If you can get through the kind of schedule we have and still win at Utah, even though you still have a game left, I think you have an argument."

Patterson also talked about his team's resilience in Friday's win at SMU and the challenges the fifth-ranked Horned Frogs will face during conference play.

Tea Party will be ineffective

Published Sep 28, 2010

The political "party" getting the most attention right now is not the Democratic or Republican Party. It is the tea party. The tea party, which stands for "Taxed Enough Already," has shaken up the political culture in America. The Democrats see it as a microcosm of how the Republicans are becoming more and more radical and out of touch with regular people. The Republican Party sees it as a fringe conservative group that could help but will probably hurt the GOP in November.

Hockey is an exhilarating, overlooked sport

When my older brother surprised me with Dallas Stars tickets this weekend 8212; for a preseason game, no less 8212; I dropped all of my plans and made sure I could go.

Why? The logic, at first, defies natural explanation. I was born and raised a resident of Hawaii, I'm currently going to school in Texas and I passionately hate bitterly cold weather. Why is it then, that I refuse to give up an opportunity to go see a Dallas Stars hockey game?

It's because I've discovered that hockey is an awesome and very overlooked sport.

Live horned frogs on campus awaits permits

Permits from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department are the only thing standing between the university and two live mascots next semester, a student said.

Senior political science major Preston Patry said he has tried to get live horned frogs on campus since his freshman year.
