  1. Vinson looks so much more athletic than Onyema, that kid puts on some good weight and muscle and he will become a force to be reckoned with.
  2. Try this one. https://voodc.com/embed/858a9488a08d879587998387968998878891.html
  3. The best punch Tyson landed was the little slap at the weigh in.

  7. Damn, the womenz beat the hell out of each other, can't see a unanimous decision at all.
  8. Something ordered by team managers wearing Arkansas gear if at any local places, unless they brought their own food and cook.

  10. You should really file a complaint with Sport's Illustrated, they obviously have no experience or no idea how to photograph beautiful women.
  11. Yeah, that's a terrible picture of her, sorry that everyone can't meet your standards.
  12. Probably, but those mounts and dismounts by Olivia Dunne may get him first. She is a gymnast you know.
  13. I went there as a kid too, went down in that big cave. Across from there over the Table Rock Lake bridge was something called Branson, USA that wasn't a big deal yet. I remember the Bevery Hillbillies did several episodes from Silver Dollar City too.
  14. These days you can bet on just about anything. Remember all the bets for the Super Bowl from the coin flip to how long the national anthem lasts, it's almost that way for everything now. You can bet over/unders and point spreads for each quarter or for a half in football. Halves and quarters for basketball. It's like the "Roaring 20's," and then those wild 30's when Hitler was invading Poland and Aggy supposedly won a national title in football. just ask Army Brat he will tell you that "Anything Goes." I'm sure that he is a fan of the theater and saw the original production by Cole Porter then. Wild times.
  15. No, it closed in 1993, I went when I was a little kid, I broke off a little piece of the statue of Jubilation T. Cornpone and kept it. Those college aged girls were looking good in their Daisy May outfits. Lil Abner comic strip and the musical was big stuff in Arkansas. They didn't know the musical was pretty funny because it made them look stupid. Such as the Jubilation T. Cornpone number below. But you can still mine for diamonds at Crater of Diamonds State Park in Murfreesboro. 😀 Crater of Diamonds State Park | Murfreesboro, AR | Arkansas.com
  16. A couple of other notes about the game and postgame was that Nixon went to the press box at halftime to be interviewed by ABC. The broadcast team that day was long time ABC football analyst and former legendary coach at OU Bud Wilkenson and the Swiss Army Knife of Broadcasting for ABC Chris Schenkel on the play-by-play. He did every kind of sport for the network, college football, NBA, boxing, even the longtime popular bowling show. Nixon came in talked football. He had played football at a small California college. Texas trailed 7-0 at the half and Nixon was talking about plays and the several turnovers Texas had in the first half. He was asked how the second half would go and who would win the game. He said that he thought Texas would stop turning the ball over and come from behind and win. Arkansas scored again the first time they got the ball in the third quarter to lead 14-0 before Texas made their famous comeback in the fourth quarter to win. It didn't look good because after Texas scored and converted for two points to make the score 14-8, Arkansas marched down the field into the Texas red zone. The Razorbacks had an All-American kicker name Bill McClard, and this would be a chip shot for him that would ice the game for the Hogs. For some reason Arkansas on third and long instead of setting up the probable winning field goal, threw a pass into the endzone that was picked off by Texas. Texas after making a first down, had the pivotal fourth and four play that everyone remembers. The time out and Street going to the sidelines and DKR calling the pass play and after starting back the huddle, Street went back to coach Royal and said, "are you sure coach?" Royal again called the pass play. Then came the long pass to Randy Peschel between three Razorback defenders as Schenkel cries "Peschel catches the ball." Texas goes on to score and take the 15-14 lead. Then Arkansas again marches down the field on short passes into range for a winning field goal by McClard. The Hogs trying to get even closer and throw yet another interception that ices the game for the Horns. Then comes the memorable scene in the Texas locker room with Nixon to present DKR with the Championship Plaque, but the place for the winner of the game was blank because it was made before the game. Nixon says that he is going to take it back to Washington and have Texas inscribed on it because you are the National Champions. He then said he may have to give some kind of plaque to the undefeated Penn State team also, if that is ok with you Coach Royal. DKR said that was fine with him and Nixon exits to head back the helicopter to take him back to the airport. This is the strange part. Nixon had the plaque inscribed with Texas on it and his staff was supposed to have it delivered to Austin. It never happened and for fifty years nobody really knew what happened to the plaque. Then Sports SID Bill Little did some research.
  17. Actually, the idea to move the game to December was ABC executive and sometimes broadcaster Beano Cook. It was the Centennial Celebration of college football so Cook and ABC sports executive Roone Arledge wanted a special game to celebrate the occasion. Arledge convinced Arkansas coach Frank Broyles to move the game with the promise that President Nixon would come to the game and present a trophy to the winner, which later turned into a plaque that said Texas was the National Champion. Arledge also promised Broyles to televise the Arkansas season opener the next season against Stanford, there was a lot of maneuvering done before the game was played because of this.

  19. What can really make a difference is a pitching coach that can get his pitchers to attack the strike zone more and believe in their stuff. Walks hurt even the best Texas pitchers the past few years, see LBJ. The walks, hbp's, and even all the deep counts mounted the pitch count and lessened innings pitched and effectiveness. Strike one is still the best pitch in baseball and sets the tone in the pitcher's favor for the at bat. How many times did Texas pitchers fall behind in the count and have to just groove a pitch to try to get back in the count that was hit hard, too many. The other thing is a pitching coach that can help a pitcher when he loses his mechanics and loses command. This is the kind of pitching coach that develops trust in that coach and pitchers will listen to him. I don't think the last few pitching coaches, especially Pierce had this ability. Too many Texas pitchers just never developed and got better the last few years or some that should have been on the mound sooner weren't used or used enough, others digressed. Hopefully the depth of the staff under Weiner will be such, that once a closer is decided on and proves to be effective, he doesn't get overused like Boehm was. I think Weiner understands this and it won't be the case, another big plus from the past. The other thing that I believe Weiner/Schlossnagle will do is know when it's time to remove a pitcher, this also cost Texas many times under the last pitching/head coach. Hoping a pitcher can get out of an inning instead of knowing it's time for his removal, and the inning gets out of hand and the game lost. Hopefully the new regime will get better pitchers out of the portal, a few that might have been effective were injured, but some were really just cast offs from teams because they weren't that effective there. The recruiting of talented pitching can already be seen and most likely that will also apply to the portal. The reputations of Weiner and Schlossnagle are the reason for this. All these things should help put more numbers in the win column and in SEC Baseball that really does "Just Mean More."
  20. There is this team called Arkansas that gets pretty worked up to play Texas also, especially in Fayettenam. After the beatdown they took today and an off week they will be chomping at the bit to get to Texas. I think it's pretty obvious that Aggy is a different animal on the road than at home. Can't see Aggy losing to New Mexico State at home or a terrible Auburn team on the road, the Tigers lost to OU at home. It would be glorious if they did. Texas needs to take care of business till then and make a statement in College Station. It looks like Lagway probably won't be available Saturday; Florida had multiple players go down to injury today. The Kentucky quarterback Vandagriff was injured in their loss to the Vols and never returned. Arkansas quarterback Green has been dinged up for much of the season and was again today by Ole Miss, he was pulled after the game got out of hand. Aggy loses their best running back and it appears to be a pretty bad knee injury, and their quarterback situation is still up in the air. Nothing is certain, but things are lining up pretty well for the Horns.
  21. I wonder what the t-shirt count is for Aggies that only to get to wear it once or twice and then donate it to some charity.
  22. They had a post-game show which consisted of Aggie highlights like they had won the game. When it ended, they mentioned some things they regularly carry wouldn't happen this week due to it being a bye week for Aggy, then they ran all the ads and joined ESPN radio. No mention of the usual post-game call in show.
  23. It seems they did. This is the Aggie channel. The regime does not allow too much negativity. Sports Talk | Sports Radio 1150 The Zone
