the camera men were the real heroes last night


Many years ago, raw feeds from MLB games often had cameras scouting the stands during commercial breaks that were frequently more entertaining than he game itself.

Hey Bob Cole: if you call me “the big guy” again, I’m going to stomp your guts right out of your billowy asshole.

My name is BEVO. Show some goddamned respect.

What is with the band not gradually marching outnumber of the N end with the cadence gradually picking up pace? Both games so far they have just piled out of the end zone and started marching. There’s no build up of energy and it’s kind of shitty.

This was my first game in five years. When did we move entirely away from "make 'em eat shit" to "OU sucks"? Not a fan. Very aggy. 

The olds do that or Go Horns Go.  The students and younger alumni still say make em eat shit. Unfortunately people in my section are starting to bring their kids with them and we’re getting a bunch of dirty looks so some people have switched to the OU which I agree is very aggyish.

Email the lhb office or tweet CDC. Seems like a lot of people are not happy with the changes to pretty game.

Tube tops or sun dresses with cowboy boots need to be mandatory attire for young ladies at the games. IMO

It should only be “OU sucks” when we play OU, and at the end of the game preceding the OU game. Very aggy indeed. Dumbfucks. 

 

And the band should march out to a drum cadence as they’ve done for decades.

They don’t do that gradual increase to cadence building to a crescendo of Texas Fight as they take the field? That’s part of what makes the pre game worth watching

A USC player after the game described the game as a "hostile environment". Don't think I've ever heard that before about DKR.

environment was very good. but imagine what crowds at Pac 10 stadiums are like.

No. They don't. It's all part of their plan to make the band 100% unlikable. 

But godzillatron would probably just play techno music over it anyway.

Good point. Stanford a top-10 team hosting rival USC the other week and I flip on the game and see tons of empty seats/section. I was thinking WTF if you can’t fill up the stadium when you are good and playing an in-state rival that’s not an ideal situation.

And apparently it’s trend in college now to not wear a bra. 8/10 chicks I’ve seen so far the first two weeks....no bra.

Sorry if posted above....

Please fire the intern running to jumbotron...and not because of the noise.

At the end of the game spontaneous singing broke out in the student section (by the way this could be the best student body for team support in a long time) and the jumbo moron uses it as a cue to start blaring its own noise in support that, of course, drowns out the students.

Let the students have the moment morons...for Gods sake this isn’t that hard.

Was in section 6 and had an old man yelling at everyone to “get down in front” and “sit down”. At first I thought he was joking with people he knew, but no, just some grumpy old man. 

Also, too many crowd shots and not enough replays.

I don’t dare to do a make em eat shit where I’m sitting. Hate to say, I am too old now to get away with it. It’s just Go Horns Go now.

I definitely think over all a massive improvement but agreed with other posters still work needed.  I also didn't get the band pregame or understand why the time for the Texas Flag on the field was cut in half (at least).  Very odd.   Also, what was up with "rock around the clock" or whatever it was in the 2nd half during a commercial break.  Are we at a 50's sock hop or a football game?  That was terrible.

There was plenty of MTES.  There also was some SC sucks.  The OU sucks people were just being dumb.

OU Sucks has very clear unwritten rules that a lot of people fuck up.  And that is that other than being employed in the Cotton Bowl while playing OU it is ONLY also employed at the home game prior to OU WHEN a victory is clearly in hand.

Last night was electric but does not approach ‘91 UH or ‘08 Mizzou. It was on par with ‘16 ND or ‘12 WVU (loss). 

I was at all of those games - including Ricky’s record run in 1998 against aggy - and the blocked kick is as loud as I’ve ever heard DKR.

And yes UH was 1990. Always loudest sustained noise.

What was with the “Don’t stop believing” song before pregame.  Apparently we cut out the giant Texas flag down to nothing to save time but we had 3 minutes to spare for a Journey song with crowd singing shots on the Godzillatron while the band just stood in the end zone the whole time?

I think last week it was Sweet Caroline.  Please stop. 

LHB marched in and lined up in the end zone. Fans stood up excited to see them march. Then nothing. Bob Cole with the stupid snowflake NCAA announcements and a couple of commercials. Sucked the life right out of the stadium. By the end of all that, they played a shitty song. Section 15 sat down. They need to fix the band's entrance.

 

I mentioned it to CDC and now morons with short memories are giving sucking him off and ignoring the shortcomings. 

 

Don't get me wrong. The atmosphere is much much better. But it can be improved.

 

And I can't hear the band at all. I didn't even know they were playing after big gains/first downs till I read it mentioned here. Mic 'em up!

They showed that girl in a black version of that outfit on the jumbotron multiple times.

Loudest I heard DKR (recently) was when Heard ran back the near winning touchdown against Cal.  Quietest I ever heard DKR was when Rose missed the extra point a minute or two later.

It sounds like a very sped up version of Texas Fight and drives me crazy. That and the Wolf of Wall Street bull shit. I want Texas Fight a lot, Grandioso, Wabash, a lot of student/alum Texas Fight, and the Eyes at the beginning and end of game. I want nothing else. And if you want to accent it with a dance party, then fine. But our band is fucking horrible right now. Everyone seems to agree. 

And this.

Yeah I was in the alumni section so that probably explains it. Still, ghg unless it's the RRS.

Not to start a baseball fight on here, but I wish Herman and the players would do a PSA explaining the unwritten rules around “OU Sucks” like the below (which was also my understanding) similar to how the Rangers did the No Wave PSA.

I love how the one lady responded that it started organically.  Umm the Godzillatron started blasting out Journey and students who had been sitting in the sun for nearly 2 hours started singing...SO ORGANIC.

Well, you’re right. Someone on the radio said Journey was the most into the game the student section was. I don’t know if that’s true, but it’s sad if so. And that seemed like a terrible time to play that song. Play it between quarters or something. And did the band play Wabash Cannonball between the 3rd and 4th? I didn’t hear it if so.

Way too much Jumbotron music. I didn’t like much of the music selection, but I’m fine with that. At least they played several different types of music, which should appease everyone to some extent. They can’t make everyone happy with every song. 

Get the band more involved, especially when they’re supposed to be playing Texas Fight. And do some kind of real band intro. I like the video the last few years  

That NCAA announcement (or even worse if it was our idea) sucked and was untimely. Announce that 30 minutes before the game if you feel you must. Everyone around me and several people I talked to after the game were especially puzzled that the announcement said not to make “racist,sexist, homophobic, or transphobic” comments during the game. People were particularly questioning transphobic. I’ve been to hundreds of football games at all levels in lots of backwater places. I have NEVER heard a transphobic comment. I’m not even sure how that would work. I’ve rarely heard any of the other mentioned types of criticisms. Far and away the most offensive things I’ve experienced at our games has been the product on the field. Stop insulting our intelligence.

I'm pretty sure that part of the announcement is a direct result of the OU cheerleader thread from TOS

Watching the replay. Watch the 4th and goal stop by UT in the 2nd when 14 to 13. Lower left corner white blouse titty bounce. Fabulous.

I don’t go to the games much bc the cost, commericalzation, shitty match ups, and product on the field but I will say the season after I came out I was pretty fucking scared when I’d go to the games. No reason to be, but I would have felt better with that announcement in 2015. Now IDGAF. That and it’s 2018 and Austin.
