Update on giant Texas flag: Flag waving during eyes of Texas has been eliminated indefinitely as part of pregame changes. Band and cheer are going to try and squeeze in the flag while the team is running out which sounds like a terrible fucking idea. Should be a corner open similar to OU game. It’s a cool open but also really easy to fuck up and end up opening in a bow tie. So there’s something to watch for today pregame.

That’s lame as shit. Fuck LHB.

Hats off to students who showed up

they were just showing highlights of 2005 game. USC fans behind us were not amused.

Ok, is our band going to play that fucking song every 30-45 seconds all game?

Yup. The current LHB directors love to pick one or two ditties and play them all fucking game. Get ready for a whole season of if

The atmosphere here pre game was incredible. Never seen anything quite like it at DKR

If I'm CDC and this continues I tell Herman from here on out he is coaching for his job. This season. This is a lot of good will to piss away.

LHB is garbage these days. Easy enough to hear it even on TV, much less in person. 

Glad I’m not the only one who feels this way. I hate their songs they play all the fucking time. Playing The Eyes after a good defensive stop used to mean something.  Now they play it all the time. Really, I thought I was an old curmudgeon pining about the band being better in my day.

Man that was entertaining.
Who knew consolidating a student section and making it GA would get them in...ALL of them in... well before kickoff.

Stadium was rocking.
So refreshing letting the crowd dictate the energy and environment and not be squashed every chance possible by Adzillatron

It was totally electric. And yes the LHB is total, utter garbage.

Easiest way to get lhb to change is be rich and make a donation or start emailing a lot and telling them it's shit. CDC seems pretty open to feedback.

Get LHAB to start making noise.

Was it me or was LHB playing the eyes really fast tempo tonight? I was in the NEZ and we were all behind the band

It sounded a little up-tempo on LHN.

Holy crap what an improvement.

We got to our seats at 6:30 and I don't remember seeing an ad till the end of the first quarter

Band actually played during breaks.

only 1 dude in the stands with a mic, and the mic didn't work so we didn't have to listen to him.

during commercial breaks there was a count down clock in the bottom right of the godzillatron to let you know how much time is left in the break.

godzillatron was not surrounded by ads. screen on the right, stats and info on left, two small ads on the bottom of the left section. Replays were from multiple angles, not just the shitty angle from some cameraman standing outside the endzone.

Only remember a couple of ads. Colt's ad for the cookies and a pluckers ad about the 5 free wing coupons. All the other "ads" were highlights with a logo in the corner or whataburger giving some kids a check. This is by far the best improvement.

No longer felt like i was being completely whored out or at a nba or minor league baseball game, it actually felt like a college football game for a change.

Now we just need Tom to pull his head out of his ass. If last night wasn't an improvement over last year I was planning on not renewing my season tickets for next year, but now the product on the field may prevent me from doing so.

Man that makes me want to go back.

The CDC difference?

I've noticed this after the volleyball games, too.  I am not a fan of speeding it up.

Curious, if we are all in agreement on lhb, and money moves the needle,  how much could we raise on here to make some changes? We could be the crowd funded Warren Buffet of Texas athletics. Just look at what the banner got us on TOS.....

Del Conte will go down as the best hire we've made this century, easily (not that the bar is set high). Stadium atmosphere was top-notch.

This is encouraging. 

 

Stadium must have been rocking tonight in the second half when the defense was pinning their ears back and savaging the USC offense.

Crowd noise was amazing at the beginning.  It wasn't as consistently loud in the second half, although it still got very loud during big plays.  The blocked field goal and return was as loud as I've ever heard DKR.

A sternly worded letter, potential lawsuit and a name change????

 

GDGD banner I was referring to was long before any of that

This.  I have never heard it this loud after that play...you couldn’t hear Smokey go off.  Amazing environment!

How are they getting students to turn out so early?  Impressive that they've manufactured a much better game atmosphere even as the team still struggles.

Yep.  I was there a full hour early and so were all the students.  Genius move.

We sat at 1:20 minutes until kickoff and the student section was 95% full. Crazy.
