Staff lower them right after every game. When we beat Oklahoma with the last-second Taurean Henderson dive into the end zone, the goalposts were lowered immediately. The refs had to have staff raise them back up for the PAT (OU could have theoretically won the game if a blocked PAT was returned for two).

There is a difference between the Texas Tech staff lowering the goal posts (which is what happened the Cougar High game today in Lubbock), the Texas Tech fans tearing down the goal posts, and the Texas Tech fans tearing down the goal posts then shoving the damaged goal posts into the Aggie fan section of Jones Field.

Yes, that was ridiculous. Not in anyway condoning that, but the previous season, we tore down the goalposts and marched them around campus after a big win (age has made me forgetful what team that was). After the game pictured here, the security staff blocked off the entrance ramps so history couldn't repeat itself. That is when the mob made the stupid decision to take them to the A&M section. Again, not condoning.

Yeah, an Aggie punched Mike McKinney that day. Still don't know why folks where hanging around after that game. Poor situational awareness

I concur. But I still love it for the Houston HC.

Tceh won a home game, in which they were favored, the field gets rushed, and the goalposts get carried off. I guess when you're that conditioned to losing, even winning a game you're supposed to win can be a shock.

Sometimes winning a game you're supposed to win doesn't happen.
If the pay's right, and it's legal, I'll do it...Well, if the pay's right, I'll do it.
