Realignment talk not going away

[Guest Lobo]

Crimson Magic v. Cardinal Red Magic rivalry talk not going away.

[Surly Bevo 24,908]

Whatever you thought of the SEC before or now, SEC Shorts is some fucking greatness...celebrate their catalogue.

 

Also our move among many things is a hedge against fuckery with expanding the CFP.  If people decide to torpedo it that's when the SEC says, "Fine, we are taking our ball and doing our own thing (which probably would include snapping up a few other schools) have fun with calling your champion legit after a decade of everybody saying we are the best (regardless of whether that was always true or not)".

Haha.  Fuckers.

They do.  And I look forward to returning that hate.  

Anyone that's ever been to Fayettnam, wearing burnt orange, has a tremendous amount of hatred for the piglet fans.

This is where those "tiny old granny on the street flipped off the Longhorn band bus as it drove by" stories, are actually true.

Right. Ohio State might have a bit of an issue with being relegated to only playing in the Rose Bowl every year. Man, the more I think of what playing in the Big 10 would look like, the more I'm happy with the SEC move. Michigan and Ohio State are the highlights and we have those booked in our future OOC. Sure, Madison would be cool and all but we can always do a home and home with them. Then we avoid Iowa City, West Lafayette, Champaign, Bloomington, East Lansing, and all the other rust belt destinations we would've been forced to go play in. Yeah, yeah, Starkville, playing Vandy, etc. I'll easily trade that for LSU, Auburn, Alabama, Knoxville, and Gainesville.

I lived in Little Rock in 87-88 (yeah old as dirt) - Arkansas wasn't really on my hated listed out of UT as it seemed in the 80s it was Ou/Aggy who drew most of our attention.  That all changed when I lived in AR.  They absolutely hate us - like shut down the state capital the friday before the game so we can stew on just how much the collective hates Texas.  When they ask you where you're from in AR,  they mean what part of AR or which high school did you go to.  If you tell them you're from Texas,  well,  good luck selling them anything or getting them to lift a finger as a service provider.  You are an outcast. 

[Eugene11 379]

All the hate, I mean stories just bring a smile to my face. God the big 12 sucked.

The Arkies also have a weird hate for OU considering they've never really played them in anything and they're not even on OU's radar.

Holtz and Roland Sales took a National title away from ou in 78 (Jan 79 bowl). Both had lost to Texas, and Holtz suspended some starters. ou simply needed to win the game as they were ranked higher. But, it was the hogs’ night.

They were also OU’s opponent in the 80’s when Bozworth wore the dumb ass NCAA communist shirt. But ou put a shit ton of points on the hapless hogs.

Long ago I took a cab somewhere for some reason in  Ft. Smith arkansas and the cab driver was just ranting about how all the Okies came to Arkansas "acting all high and mighty" and just "lording it over us folks from Arkansas" and I just sat their dumbfounded thinking this was like a pissing match of the local extras from Deliverance.

Idiocy of the post bowl polls.  Texas was ranked 4 behind pig who we beat on the road, despite both having only one loss.  Kentucky was ranked 6 behind Penn St. who they beat in Happy Valley despite both having one loss.

The legend is that Oklahoma assistant Larry Lacewell was pissed about finding out about his boss, Switzer, banging his (Lacewell’s) wife, and that detracted from the Sooner prep and atmosphere.

Pretty sure it's been confirmed that Lacewell gave the playbook and gameplan to Holtz and left the hotel and event. I've heard that story from the early 80's forward from my father, who played at Rice but loves and cheers for Texas, and knew all of the parties involved and fucking hates Switzer to this day. He also hates Lou Holtz and Ken Hatfield for whatever reasons, I think because of Hatfield's time and failure at Rice, but I digress.
