A sidenote from all this will be the absolute ass kicking that will be handed down to both those schools come November.

The Tennessee is the real UT shit is going to deeply piss me off. Oh well, price of doing business in the SEC. 

the thing is, the ESiPN BOMC calls us UT and calls them Tennessee or 'The Vols'

the national media doesn't call them UT

only they call themselves UT

it's not even a thing

they could go full aggy w/ billboards and shit and we'd still be like 'wut?'

They’re not elite. They’ll go backwards this year. Last year was Texas 2018 for them. 

I was in the southeast for the past two weeks and I had a Texas hat on a couple of times. Each time, a random person felt compelled to come up to me to tell me that Texas isn’t the “real UT”. I simply responded by saying “There’s only one Texas as far as I am concerned. “ Then they’d try to explain that they were Tennessee fans, to which I told them I didn’t realize Tennessee thought of themselves as “UT”. Both guys couldn’t believe it. That shit is going to be fun. 

Confronted at BNA twice last month

derpyvol: "you're not the real UT"

admiral "no, aggy calls us TU"

derpyvol: cognitive dissonance crushes them in their tracks, facial expression frozen

give them 2 seconds to reply (they won't/can't, they have no idea what to say)

admiral: "look, you're going to have to work it out with them, we're off that day, hopefully we'll get you in '25"

give the vol another 2 seconds to reply, then shrug and move on

(narrator: they are literally frozen in their tracks from this, they don't move)

it's literally the best accidental jedi mind-fuck i've ever seen

When the fuck did Bobby become a longhorns fan.

Like 1988 or so. At the very latest.

I know some really, really hardcore Longhorns fans. And exactly zero of them are more of a Longhorn fan than Bobby. Zero point zero.

"And I'd have thought Utah would have a bigger claim than y'all on that abbreviation, anyhow."

After pondering this UT thing that the Vols apparently have a serious hard-on about, I imagine my conversation would go one of two ways should one ever confront me about it..

A)
Vol Fan: “You’re not the real UT, we are.

Stinkpalm: “Does Tennessee have a Technical University?”

Vol Fan: “Yeah, Tennessee Tech University. Why?”

Stinkpalm: “Oh, do they have a stupid, one-sided quibble with Texas Tech over who gets to be the real TTU, like y’all do with UT?”

Or, way more likely….

Made the mistake of reading that board a couple of times. Outside of modern NBA fans, I've never seen so much blatant stupidity. 

once the move is made, drive-by bdf traffic in-season will fall off because they don't really have any place to go

note to @immamac you should stand up a site for the bdf like the rant functions for our new friends - dumb down the surl - then make it neutral - and add farming as a sub-forum

al4isu gets to be king of the cornfield

also, all brethren get TempleTags (TM the Admiral 2023) which are mandatory and can never be removed once id'ed as brethren

users get to crowd-source their avatars and taglines, ergo Crockett's tagline might be "Book of Moses Supporter" or "Elk Mountain Monkey Boy"

Here we go again in October.  The PC tongue-twister re-re-rebranding is back.  I really thought "Showdown" was a decent compromise.

they better not put a sec logo on there next year

iron bowl

egg bowl

cocktail party

clean, old-fashioned hate

clemson/cock

So are you the 1% of the population that's offended by the name change?

I, for one, am in the vast majority of long-time fans of one of the greatest rivalries in all of CFB--probably the greatest--who are fed up with some corporate marketing department telling some pencil-dick intern who doesn't know sheep shit from wild honey when it comes to real football, because he probably identifies as a girl anyway, that the pure and unadulterated sobriquet of "The OU Game," which stood for, oh, 100 years or so (and is 63-50-5 in favor of UT), is woefully insufficient as a title, and that what we need is a catchy corporate branding moniker that'll help us sell more Lite Beer, or Chevrolet pickups, or cut-rate auto insurance, or some such, totally without regard to the value of history and  tradition, and without offending any self-styled protected class in the process, and while you're at it, make it the longest run-on sentence in the history of marketing and promotion, and by the way, we need it tomorrow. That's where I am on this "Red River Whatever-The-fuck" bullshit, and I refuse to compromise.

Good lord, they can't just call it "the OU game" or "the Texas game" for obvious reasons. The Red River who-gives-a-fuck is a fine compromise, and no one actually says the sponsor's name outside of a broadcast anyway.

Also, that's a big account, the "pencil dick intern" is probably a creative director making $500-750,000 a year whose main job is getting all of the corporate big dicks to agree on something, the actual name is entirely secondary to the process.
