  1. Then fine, the SEC will just fill all four spots, and no playoffs for you. Somehow I don't think the other conferences will like that very much.
  2. I would say this guy is a moron, but his Twitter handle already did that for me.
  3. More like Texas is the rich dad who is tired of footing the bill for all of his trust fund children, and he just told them all that it's time move out and get an apartment.
  4. SWC, Big XII, and ??? Reminds me of an old joke: the "N" on the Nebraska players' football helmets stands for "Nowledge."
  5. I wanted Texas in the Pac at one time for purely selfish reasons, as I live out on the west coast and would love to see the Longhorns come out here from time to time. But I think the move to the SEC now makes perfect sense, and I am 100% behind it.
  6. Hmmm, guess he forgot about the part where FSU finished 5-6 in Jimbo's final season there, were set to go off a cliff, and A&M bailed him out with a massive contract. I'll give Looch one thing, though - he is good at the grift. He knows how to spin takes that the aggy faithful will slop right up like pigs at a trough.
  7. I blame the Big XII more for this smooth buttfucking by the officials, Oklahoma State was just the lucky beneficiary. It honestly would not surprise me if it were to come out one day that somebody in the Big XII office had money on Oklahoma State for this game.
  8. I was running with the meme there, but this is true.
  9. Fuck yeah. Now give us our 20 30 pieces of silver and let's get on with it.
  10. Hold all the hearings you want, Danny. They're not changing a goddamn thing. May I suggest bringing in a keg or two of Shiner Bock to make them slightly less boring.
  11. Yeah, I think I can safely say that most of the "S-E-C" chants I have heard lately have been coming from the direction of Collie Station. Look, we'll respect our peers in the SEC, and hopefully they'll respect us. We're not doing any of that silly ass-kissing shit, though.
  12. If anything, from what I have heard, it may have been the other way around. OU got pissed at Bowlsby for not accommodating their request to move the Nebraska game to prime time, and that was apparently the straw that broke the camel's back and started this whole process. Texas isn't going to sit around and watch its two biggest rivals competing in the SEC without joining in. Anyone who thought Texas would go, "okay, fine, we'll just go make Texas Tech and Oklahoma State our new rivals in the Big XII" is seriously deluded. Of the remaining eight, Oklahoma State is one of those schools I don't really harbor a whole lot of dislike for, aside from the hatchet job that the officials pulled on us with the officiating in the 2015 game. I've always kind of liked Gundy as a coach. Hope it works out somehow for them somewhere.
  13. Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I really don't give a flying fuck about horns down. It just shows that they have no meaningful culture or traditions of their own, other then clowning ours. Obsession noted.
  14. I respect the shit out of what Bill Snyder accomplished at Kansas State during his prime, but at this point, you have to wonder if late-stage dementia is setting in.
  15. John Sharp has to get pegged by the sheep of his choosing?
  16. I honestly do not understand why Corn Aggy gives a shit about what we do anymore. I thought that B1G move was working out great for them. @Cornfusion said so himself.
  17. I think you're misunderstanding the dynamic here. The SEC is not "run" by one school in particular. It seems to me to be much more of a collaborative effort. I much prefer a situation like the SEC where Texas gets to be an adult, work alongside its peers, and make decisions as to what is best with other adults in the room - rather than Texas having to be one of a pair of adults and babysit a bunch of children. That would be the situation we are presently leaving, by the way.
  18. I realize this is probably commish-speak, but geez, it sounds like aggy aren't the only ones who can't read the room.
  19. Oh yes, I remember that game well. Without a doubt, one of the low points of the Mackovic era.
  20. This is one of the things I have always enjoyed about Rice coming to DKR and the MOB doing the halftime show. Even when they poke fun at us, it's hilarious and I usually enjoy the laughs. Not everything has to be so damned serious 100% of the time.
  21. Hartzell: "it's been a pleasure working with you, Bob. Now where should we send our sympathy bouquet?"
  22. So little self-awareness going on over there right now. And...in other news, today is Sunday.
  23. I saw that one of the cosponsors of that bullshit piece of legislation they filed to make the State Legislature sign off on any conference moves was the individual who represented my old hometown. I had to look him up because I had never heard of him before. Turned out - surprise, surprise - he was an agroid. Reminds me once again of why I noped the fuck out of that place 30+ years ago.
  24. Judging by the net 23 negs here, that message isn't going over well with the cult.
