With gameday nearly here, things are heating up at Lubbock International Airport, with both Tech and Texas fans pouring off the planes. Fans are counting down the hours til the big game and many of them are streaming into The Hub City just in time for kickoff. We ran into both Red Raider and Longhorns fans. Many of them said they booked flights and reserved hotels back in the summer! Every flight is packed with fans from both teams, flying in from all over the country, and they say, they're ready to see the action! Says former Tech football player Gaines Baty, "Everybody's talking about it all across the country. In Dallas, it's bigtime, I walked into a store this morning, and 5 people said 'What do you think about the game?'"
