  1. Must be. I thought they would've burned them after that game.
  2. Looking like these except for maybe some slight adjustments like the pant swoosh and the switch from mean green to a north texas patch on the jersey.
  3. It probably makes sense for them to do more mainstream beer so there is less leftover to go flat. I understand the craft beer craze but they haven't caught up to the megabrewers in popularity just yet.
  4. Wow that is deflating. I get your point. So they don't view us as a rival. I watched Pony Excess again last night and see that Vito prompted the rivalry quote. But even if there isn't a real rivalry, I won't hate them any less. They are still my most hated opponent and it isn't even close.
  5. So to you there is no rival for us and we just won't have one because we don't have a "long history with meaningful games" with any of our conference mates? Or any other team for that matter? So we just go cheer because its our team and all games are equal? No reason to get more excited about a team 30 miles down the road that recruits many of the same players? Geography matters and it matters way more in the OU-UT rivalry than the conference affiliation does.
  6. The Green Brigade is a marching band. A singular entity. The carnival barker uniform is a singular entity. The 30 variations of your uniform are not a singular entity. They are 30 singular entities, thus the quantity. We don't have 30 variations of the Green Brigade.
  7. Actually it was three straight Andrew Tucker runs. i guess he was so frightened of #5 turning it over in the red zone that he went with the safe play. Everything else you said I agree with. haha, well said.
  8. Mac would've never allowed Peyton Manning to see the field last year.
  9. +1 for the Lebowski reference, also dude.....
  10. Well they were a major conference team then and you know you have to play those home games against P5s wherever they tell you because its what gets you in those P5 conferences. Just look at Houston, they've never been in a power conference before and now their on the cusp of getting in the big 12 because they are playing OU at the Texans' stadium. Oh wait, you say they have been in a power conference before, have a heisman trophy in the case, and are coming off a 13 win season? I guess maybe they aren't the same as us.
  11. The second half field position of them starting on their own 42 while we started on our own 20 surely didn't help. Our 4th quarter possessions ended in fumble, punt, and interception so that didn't help either. Oh and there was the dominating 220 yards of total offense we put up that game. I think the defense got discouraged by the atrocity that was our offense and just quit giving maximum effort. If we had any degree of quarterback play, we'd have won that game easily. If you'd have put in HS senior Mason Fine, we'd have won that game. We couldn't pass, they knew it and we were screwed. 16 of 34 for 128 yards, 2 ints, 2 sacks, and no tds won't get it done, not even against a scrub team like SMUg.
  12. Except for every year before 1997 other than 1915-1919, right? You do realize that OU left the Southwest Conference in 1920 having been a member for only 5 seasons, right? Would they not also shrug if you asked them the name of our mascot, head football coach, athletic director, starting quarterback, or stadium? The OU-UT rivalry is only well-known because OU and UT are well-known. North Texas has never been well-known and SMU hasn't been well-known since 1987. The true meaning of a rivalry is the feeling of the fanbases about each other.
  13. Don't forget Cade Pearson and Ernie's grandson coming in the next few years.
