  1. If Texas was already in the SEC, that would be 7 teams in the top 10 from the same conference. This conference is going to be fun to play in. Suprised that OSU isn't higher, but haven't followed their offseason.
  2. Knowing all of the above and factoring that into my opinion, for the people that were there they really didn't feel very engaged. I agree on the crowd getting up a few times after Texas made some great plays only to have the wind knocked out of the sails a bit by a foul on the other end which caused the momentum to be quelled. It doesn't have to be a Metallica concert, but more than a semi-pro baseball game would be nice. I don't know if Beard needs to get on the mic, but I think it was telling when the DJ finally stopped playing old bullshit dance party USA songs and they played shit the Texas Band would normally play at a game and the crowd responded. Then the DJ hops back up with the dance mix and the crowd goes back to sitting on their hands/phones.
  3. I can confirm as a NW fan on the side. He may have been 4-5 stars in HS but the college game is WAY too fast for him. If he has all day to throw he’s pretty good, but the line was not good this year and his ability was not good enough to make a difference. Actually glad he’s gone.
  4. Hot Take incoming: Hey man! I went to the basketball game last night. Glad we won, but for a rivalry game the crowd was terrible and quiet. No band, no Texas! Fight!, and the loudest it got was for the halftime musical chairs show. The OU sucks, because the do, chant at the end of the game was nice, but it was only led by the jumbotron throwing it up there with about a minute to go in the game. I was in section 34, row 30, but moved down to row 9 after the mass exodus when it became clear Texas was going to win the game. Fuck those people for leaving early and for the people that stayed, why the hell are you just standing without making any noise?!? Row 8 had 10 dudes, all standing, all with their hands in their pockets talking to each other quietly and giving about half a fuck about the game. I've seen it louder in a church parish hall waiting for the coffee to be refilled. New arena or not, the crowd should be split up with a first come first served section around the entire court, save for the small amount of students that attend. Conversely, they should leave the douche bag "just doing this because it's an event and want to be seen" crowd in some sort of club lounge for dipshits. Every coach and every player should not have to beg the crowd during a rivalry game to fucking cheer on defense or make noise when the rival is shooting free throws, yet here we are. Shit, half the crowd barely threw up the Horns when we shot free throws. I tried 4 times to get the crowd around me to make noise and get up. It worked each time but lasted for 2 possessions. I cannot wait for the FEC to go bye-bye, but the new arena is going to need some serious hand holding to get the party started. Motherfuckers looked like they were watching a Yanni concert. Oh, Mr. Minister O' Culture? Could you please instill some fucking culture up in this mother?! Because right now, it feels like a funeral could have been going on and nobody would have noticed. Also, don't give me the "they just need to win and they will come" bullshit, because this team has a badass coach and they are winning. #IMissOldTexas #TEXAS,FIGHT!
  5. Thoughts and prayers to the Shipley family. Sad.
  6. I’ll say this much, the Texas game in Lubbock is going to be serious business to Tech fans. My BIL is a tech grad and a professional garage beer drinker. Meaning, his favorite quote to use whenever someone mentions leaving their home for anything other than work or beer is, “Why would you leave your home? Nothing good happens when you do that.” That being said, at Christmas he told me that he is planning to fly to Lubbock for the game to boo Chris Beard in person. This is tantamount to aggy switching to all female cheerleaders level of shock. Beard leaving for Texas really pissed off Tech fans, at least most that I’ve run into. I’ll be shocked if Texas goes to Lubbock and wins. (Not that Texas isn’t good enough, but that place is going to be hostile.) PS - I bought my BIL a Texas Basketball shirt for Christmas. 🤣
  7. A kid died. Parents lost a son due to his negligence. I guess “abuse” fits but doesn’t tell the whole story. Fuck that guy. No offense, but that movie was one of the most “can see it coming from a mile away” as far as storylines. The director was hitting the viewer over the head with what was coming. Visuals were nice though.
  8. As a fishing guy, maybe he’s just a fan of this guy…
  9. Correction: LSU with a TD pass with 0:00 remaining to lose 42-20.
  10. Great band name.
  11. Wheat wins 42-14. Big XII beats SEC!!1!1!!1
  12. I agree but Opt-outs and portals are the new norm. The LSU D is missing 2 starting DL and all three LBs. of course, at least they still played the game. Aggyland, Home of the 12th Man Myth. 👎🏼
  13. Haha, fuck KSU. Crawdads with another “please make the catch” touchdown pass from the gutsy WR.
  14. Glad you had fun. The last time I was at NRG, I was trying to commit seppuku as Shawn Wats… I mean Arkansas was crushing the Texas O.
  15. Yes, yes he did. Then tried to save himself by saying that he can’t get Nebraska being in the Big 8 out of his head. Alrighty.
  16. KSU with the SEC chant…
  17. Well, he is a WR trying to play QB. At least the passes are spiraling.
  18. Going to the 4th, Wheat 28-7. This game is just going through the motions trying to just get it to 0:00.
  19. Agreed. At least they had the balls to man up and play the game. Aggy sitting at home to protect their “image” worked in my eyes. They still look like bitches to me.
  20. No, the usual. A camera was shoved in their face, so morons gonna moron.
  21. Hahaha, nice kick, 2nd string! Halftime: Wheat over Crawdads, 21-7
  22. Nice Horns down by the fat ass KSU fan. Glad to know we aren’t playing but still get some good publicity. RIP, fatty.
  23. No way he got the line to gain, but the refs are feeling generous
