How could I have let this one slip? It's college football season folks! Where's the smack talk? No random college football comments on any of the posts yet? Should USC be number 1? What about Florida? Can they do it again? Is West Virginia for real? Is anyone going to a game?
I'm headed to Madison, Wisconsin to watch the Badgers take on Michigan in November. Can't wait to go back and get a blueberry muffin from Mickey's Dairy Bar, swing by the Union and get some chocolate milk, and top everything else off with sauerkraut. Of course the best is watching a game at Camp Randall.
How can anyone argue it's not the best time of year?

Brian - no problem, and you almost made spew water on company assets!
Josh,
I am sorry if your post was deleted. It may have wound up on the spam page. Trust me, I would never stand in the way of supporters from Zero U and the Department of Corrections facility in Austin.

Kim-
Well, it seems either IE didn't cooperate or the mods didn't want to approve my post (as witty as it was), so I will have to do another one.
Yes, Benedict Arnold did meet the business end of a rope for being thought of as a traitor, but historically the list of people who met an untimely demise for biting off more than they could chew due to arrogance and pride is much, much longer. As they say, pride does cometh before a fall, so I would be cautious.
Many, many of my UT chums won't even care to make a wager on the game, so I guess I will have to pay for my own keg for the shootout this year.
Ah, and thank you for "letting" us win the plane pull for the last few years, it is always such a pleasure to do so right in front of UTs cheer squad and Bevo, just as it has been to win 5 of the last 7 shootouts - but only because you LET us.
Enjoy the game, I know I will!
Kimmy: isn't Bevo, like you, a girl? Besides, it's udder nonsense for you to even wish that the girly men of Texas might make a game of it this year.
Hey Jeramy,
Be careful when you try to step on us and crush us like a bug...the ends of those long horns are sharp. I do have to admit that you and your Useless Sophomore Children have been so hospitable to us each time we've visited lately, and we sure appreciate you sending us home with such nice memories!
Hey Josh,
You said you were born in THIS state and yet you've got Sooner trash comin' outta your mouth? Wasn't Benedict Arnold given a first hand demonstration of the inelasticity of rope for similar behavior? But, that's okay, you Okies Employees go ahead and strain yourself against the Teasipper Employees and show us that you're good at pulling 737s around. We'll LET you win just like we do on the football field from time to time.
Hey Jerry,
"Smelly-belly"??? You been hangin' around underneath Bevo? That's a dangerous place to be when he decides to lay down. Besides, you ever try to get a huge steer into a shower and then to roll on some deodorant on him?

Kim,
Don't make me laugh. You're lucky your horns aren't playing the #1 team in the nation this year. We would crush you like a little bug. Trojans are going all the way!!!
Fight On!!!

I was patiently waiting for a T-sip to post ;-)
Oh, how I cannot wait until October 6th, when all the UT fans who for the past two years have been bragging that you guys beat us, and disregarding the previous 5 consecutive losses as "the past", will taste defeat. Then, don't try to bring up that you guys beat us the previous two years - after all it is the past.
And, I actually rooted for UT (because they are Big 12) to pull it out down there playing against a nationally ranked...no wait...a tough division I....no wait....umm, well just the University of Central Florida so that they could stay undefeated and ranked until that first weekend in October.
And, the thought that put a smile on my face the most was thinking of the Longhorns going into the locker room and breathing a sigh of relief, only to catch ESPN and realize that OU is looming ahead after utterly destroying another team. Oh, the smile was HUGE.
Just as I look forward to the OU group beating the UT group again in the plane pull this year, its time for the football game to follow suit!!
KIM: If your smelly-belly 'Horns show up appearing weak and incapable, it'll be because they are. Can hardly wait for the Sooners to lower the Boomers on your stump-broke steers.
Josh,
We're just saving ourselves from a lot of extra work. It's called optimizing your efforts. Why bother to win by 30 or 40 points when you can win by just a few?
Besides, as gentlemen, we're trying to not embarrass our weaker opponents too much. A win is a win, and we don't need to rub it in their faces.
Plus, by appearing to be weak and barely capable of playing the game, we'll lull your Sooners into a false sense of security and overconfidence so that when you come to OUR State Fair in a few weeks, we will be able to easily crush you and send you back across the Red River with one more game in the loss column for OU in our 107-year-old rivalry!
Hook 'em Horns,

P. S. Hey Jeramy, how ya been? Anything been happenin' with that Unsuccessful Silly College that you root for? :)
Hi Leah! I am actually a TX boy originally and went somewhere other than OU, but I never liked UT and sort of came to like OU by association (couple of close friends went there, and I travelled there a couple times and loved the atmosphere). I just like giving my teammates here at SWA who are UT grads a hard time and can't wait till Oct. 6th!
