Oklahoma putting it to the horns......

I may be a bad Aggie/Bearkat/Coog but the one and only time I ever pull for TU is against OU.... I ****ing hate "Boomer Sooner"!! Everytime I hear that, I want to vomit blood all over my patio....
 
Ya know, the more I think about it, I would rather have syringes full of bleach injected into my eyeballs than to hear Boomer Sooner!
 
Wow, I guess TU is really OUs' "female dog" I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!!!!! :redtowel: This is starting to be a weekly thread! :jam:

Um.

You should really use facts to back up your posts. Otherwise you can look mighty foolish, as you do with this post.

1)Prior to today, Texas had won 3 of the last 4 games.

2)Including today's game Texas leads the overall series 59-41-5.

3) A bounce of the ball in another direction and UT could have scored on the fumble recovery and possibly stolen the game.

Don't feel too bad about getting completely pwned, it happens!

Just when I think I know what "pwned" means, someone posts something like this, that doesn't really fit the definition.

So now, I assume, pwned means regurgitating a lot of koolaide.... ?

Nope.

In this case I used pwned to mean that OrangeLotPole8's point was soundly defeated. OrangeLotPole8 has no possible response to refute my stats. In essence I put OrangeLotPole8 in a virtual checkmate. He stepped up with emotion base drivel and I destroyed his premise with cool headed facts and statistics. I utterly humiliated him. There is nothing he can say which can refute.

In this discussion point, OrangeLotPole8 has been PWNED by awtysst!

He's not talking about history, he's referring to a thread from last week entitled, "UCLA Putting it to the horns". That's the weekly theme, not OU beating them every year.

Might I add since the year 2000.......OU 7 TU 4!!!!!!!!!!!! so STFU!

7 of the last 13

7 of the last 11

Why are you picking random numbers like that? Is it so you can continue to make your point? I chose a 4 year cycle becuase that is the amount of time a player can participate in college football. Oklahoma has gotten more wins in the last 13 years, but still trail the overall record by 18. More recent history (last 4 years) has UT winning 3 of 4. Point being, the teams are pretty evenly matched.

I get that you don't like UT and that's fine. But you look really foolish when you try to make the claim that UT is Oklahoma's *****. Save yourself further embarrassment and humiliation and switch to another topic area.
 
LOL, I was trying to not make you feel so bad with 7 of 13, but it is 7 out of 11, (go look it up smarty pants) lets do RECENT history as you say and take the last decade...... OU WINS, TU LOSES! NUFF SAID! Cant wait till the horns go into Lincoln...... hehe :whip:

Again, taking a decade is a arbitrary number. As you know(or should) players come and go and coaching philosophies change over that much time. My choice of 4 years is also an arbitrary choice.

In all seriousness, I really do feel bad for you. You do not have a lot of posts on here, yet you have spent a decent percentage of them talking about how glad you are UT lost. That is, of course your prerogative, but I feel bad for the person who derives joy from the failures of others. It sad to see someone revel not in accomplishments but failures.

Sure, Texas is having a down year. They have won 9 consecutive 10 win seasons and have the second most amount of wins in the history of college football. They are clearly a powerhouse in college football. And guess what, every program has peaks and valleys. This is clearly a down year.

Who knows what happens in Nebraska. Maybe Texas wins, maybe they do not. At the end of the day, I will support UT. Its too bad you have not spent as much energy extolling the virtues of a team as much as you have tried to point out flaws.

Perhaps, one day, you will grow up and find a way to celebrate positives rather than revel in negatives.
 
The point I am getting is that UT has EVERYTHING to be successful. They have the location, the history, 5 star recruits 3 deep on the depth chart, very deep pockets, the "best" coaches money can buy, the best facilities, the "best" university, they are the "New York Yankees" of college fotball. Why do you think TCU, Boise State, and the University of Houston is not in the Big "12" minus 2? Because TU says they can't be. That would create more competition on the field and the recruiting trail. TU likes to do their relatively easy non-conference schedule (UCLA is not supposed to go into TU and win, Wyoming, Rice, the free recruiting trip home game), and then beat up on the conference schedule and play one huge game a year in OU and then take care of the weaker Big 12 opponent in the Big "12" minus 2 championship game and win or lose that game they are still in a BCS game. All the "T-sips" beat their chest each and every week talking about how they are better than everybody else..... hell TU SHOULD BE BETTER than everybody else. I just love it at work how they NEVER talk about TU football on the week after they get beat! With that being said, I HOPE THE TEXANS WIN TODAY (That's a positive note sir). Next time you are in Houston to attend a game, let me know and I will buy you a beer.

Yeah, by the same token I just love how you only talk about about UT in the weeks they lose a game. NOW you have smack to talk... All of a sudden for some reason you decide to talk about UT football because once a decade they have a rebuilding year.

Psst... look up UT's future non conf schedule before you sound even sillier. They are playing USC, Cal, ND, BYU, and Arkansas in the next few years.
 
Between UT and UGA, this is adding up to a pretty sucky college football year. :(
 
Where are you getting that UT doesn't want Houston, TCU, etc in the Big 12? As a fan I would love to see that. Heck I would love to see them in the SEC. Most of the Big 12 bores me.

Have you seen somewhere where the UT program doesn't want those teams in? I have never heard of that personally.

We don't want UH, TCU, etc in the big 12. And the reason, they bring absolutely nothing to the table. If you are a coog fan, or a horned frog fan - deal with it. Look at your stadium, and notice how it holds what, 25,000 people? 35,000 maybe? And notice how its never full?

That's why you aren't in the big 12. Get the student numbers, the fan support, the following, the reputation - and then, maybe you can join. Until then, it's all a glorified Texas 5A football game.
 
As for the thread starter - I get it, he's just trying to troll the UT fans.

What is your college football team sir?

its this arrogant attitude that makes me despise UT. Yeah, we get it, you're the ranking college football program in Texas but the truth of the matter is you guys have gotten to 10 wins every year b/c outside of OU the big 12 is hot garbage & you're non conference schedule has been a joke for the most part. At least attempt to challenge yourselves.

The only reason you guys have stepped it up for the future is b/c you know the big 12 is about to get even weaker which i didn't even know was possible to be honest.

Don't speak for me. Actually a lot of UT fans don't speak for me because I am not a VY jock sniffer / Titans "fan" but that is for another thread.

I personally wouldn't mind seeing UH and TCU in the Big 12. IF those teams were in the Big 12 they would improve in all of those areas you are speaking about. IMO their current conference is holding them back.

Houston was a power in the SWC and I see no reason why they couldn't be again in the Big 12. Plus because of who they are I would be excited to play them.

So what does Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Missouri, or even OSU bring to the table? Nothing for me personally. I never look forward to playing any of those teams even when they are decent. Maybe it is because I grew up with the SWC and enjoy the rivals I grew up with.

I agree with what your're saying. UH and UT used to play back in the early 90s and those were some fun games to watch (not for me since I was little but the one's I watched on YouTube were exciting).

Anyways, UH is a major upgrade over Iowa State and Kansas IMO.

You sir have been REPPED! Thank you for not looking through beer goggles like most TU fans.
 
When you're not busy trying to trash UT what college team do you cheer for?

Houston Cougar, at least I thought I remember that from another thread.

Honestly, this stuff doesn't bother me. If I wasn't a UT guy I would probably bash on them too because many UT fans come off real arrogant, especially on UT boards. I am often going at it with some of them myself, mainly the Titan/VY jock supporters.

I am always taking little jabs at them. One guy started a thread today about how crappy his weekend was because both the Horns and Titans lost. I replied something like this ... "Since some of you are such big fans of Tennessee football, ex Vol Arian Foster is killing it right now for the Texans!"

Excellent point Hookem. c10x brought up stadia earlier and it makes me think about my school's attendance record.

For the big games or rivalry games, which I consider any Big 12 south school, in order of importance to us UT-Austin, Tech, OU, Baylor, Okie Lite, we will have at least 95% attendance if not sold out unless we're in a 2008 year again (4-8). Also, usually season openers are fairly well sold as well.

But then teams like Iowa State, Kansas State, Colorado, Florida International, etc come to town, and we don't have any real ties to them other than some being in conference. These games usually have ~2-10,000 seats open depending on the remoteness and prestige of visiting school.

What I'm trying to say and tie back to Hookem's point is, what does UH have in common with UCF, Marshall, ECU, Memphis etc? Other than being aligned in the same conference, these schools have little history that I am aware of that therefore makes the games less intense for the fans than in-state or decades old rivals. Instead of rehashing old SWC games against A&M, UT-Austin, TCU, Arky etc, UH is stuck playing these distant 'rivals' that don't really capture the alumni and fan-bases attention.

I think given the chance to play some of their historical rivals (the schools I mentioned above plus some others) the UH football program and fan-base would latch onto the renewed rivalries and really take their program to the next level. Just look at the UH - Tech game last year when UH set attendance records and had over a couple thousand watching in the parking lot on a video screen.

They aren't Longhorn fans. They are fans of a player. They don't care about the other players on that Championship team and where they play ball these days. I think they're like teenage girls following Beckham around. Those teenyboppers don't care about soccer or what city Beckham is in. They just think he's cuuute.

I couldn't be happier the Texans skipped out on Vince if fans like that are what we passed on. I'd look at em and say "thanks, but no thanks" too.
 
I am a BIG WESTERN KENTUCKY FAN! :secret:

Sure, because most Western Kentucky Fans refer to Texas as TU.

I guess we have very different ideas of a team getting "put to". Last weeek, yeah I'd say that was what happened with UCLA.

This week a narrow win by Oklahoma, not so much.

If you want to see a team get "put on":

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgg1wuXXe8k

Anyway. I don't get why the Big 12 gets ripped for being a weaker conference because it's not like the PAC-10 has always had the parity it enjoys now with USC on the downside.

The Big 10 can be up and down, as well at the ACC.

To me that's just someone finding a reason to hate UT and that can be one of many, but that's not UT's fault despite what any conspiracy theory you cook up.
 
Wow, I guess TU is really OUs' "female dog" I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!!!!! :redtowel: This is starting to be a weekly thread! :jam:

Man, you certainly show your ignorance with this post. UT has won the last 4 out of 6 against OU. If you're going to try and troll, at least have some facts that can back stuff like this up. The inferiority complex of Aggies or whatever school you root for is really showing now. You guys have to live through other teams just to try and bash the Horns, because your pathetic school can't do it. :spit:

Man, I'd hate to be a fan like that. Lol! You go out of your way to try and hate on the Longhorns more than the time you spend to root for your own team. How sad.

The Big 12 is without a doubt better than the ACC this year. The only team in the ACC that MIGHT be capable of playing in a BCS game without getting slaughtered is Miami. That same OU team that squeaked past UT and Utah State obliterated FSU (the second best team in the ACC), and their third best team (VTech) lost to a second division program.

The Big 12 is also unquestionably better than the Big East, and currently has more ranked teams than the Pac 10. The SEC and Big 10 are the two best, no doubt. But I don't think there's some yawning chasm between the ACC/Pac 10 and Big 12 the way so many C-USA and MWC fans seem to.
 
Anybody see TU in the polls? I scanned the top 25 and they are NOWHERE TO BE FOUND! :thinking:

Funny, for as much drivel you talk about Longhorns fans and yada yada, you stick your chest out more than any I've ever seen only when they lose so the way you describe these so called UT fans you don't like, you act just like them if not worse. How does that feel to know that you act like what you loathe?

At the end of the day, Longhorns fans don't even have to worry about jealous envious fans like yourself, because UT will be right back on top by next year or the year after. That's what a dominant top school can do. You probably worry more about UT losing than your own team winning? Lol!! Again, how sad.

Good points. Same thing goes for the downward horns. Is your school that lacking in tradition that all you can come up with is UT's salute upside down?

This is just weak. When you have something that you can really bash UT on, then get back at me. This stuff is just comical from you jealous fans who live to hate on UT. Being envious like this seems like it would be miserable.

b/c every year over half the conference is irrelevant......like really irrelevant (big 12 north anyone?) every year everyone knows that the conference comes down to 1 game, & i'll give you a hint its not the Big 12 title game. & for it to be to put together mainly as a football conference, it's just too lopsided; any team that matters is in the south bracket so they beat up on each other while the north scramble for the right to get pummeled by whomever comes out of the south.

& Don't get it twisted, the pac 10 gets the same rap too it's just less of filler teams like the big 12 has.

I don't get offended by that silliness. I almost take that stuff as a compliment. When another school is so riled up about UT that they throw out Horns down when they aren't even playing Texas, you know you've really gotten in their heads.

Kinda like how you know you own a school when they are willing to torch every rivalry they've ever had to keep from playing you again.

Don't speak too soon. I think the Big 12 Champ is from the North this year, and maybe their second best team too. Right now I think Nebraska is far and away the best team in the Big 12, and they are in the North. Missouri is also a ranked team, which means half the ranked teams in the Big 12 are from the North Division (the two Oklahoma schools are also ranked). The Big 12 North is anything but irrelevant this year.

I could see Mizzou knocking off OU in Columbia. The Sooners haven't looked invincible (especially on the road) and MU has actually looked pretty good so far. Hell, OU might not even be the best team in Oklahoma -- they gotta go to Stillwater this year too.

Yeah but that's 1 year out of how many though? & just as it appears the tide might be shifting a little, Nebraska's outta here in a few. Conference's should be put together to offer some challenge to each of the members, not 1-2 teams & then everyone else way behind. It just needs to be put out of it's misery & restructured for more balance so it can start getting those benefit of the doubt nods in the BCS system like the SEC & Big 10 do.

It's going round robin when Nebraska and CU bolt.

I just don't think that the Big 12 is UT, OU, and everybody else. I think Oklahoma State has been improving for years and are on the verge of being a very good team. A&M is dangerous as hell, even if they aren't able to finish perfectly. They can hang 40 on anyone. Tech was looking like a consistent top ranked team before the Leach debacle, but they could easily come right back. Mizzou is a good program, and even if they lost to North Dakota I think Kansas will be pretty good under Gill. Sure there's absolute dead weight like Iowa State and Baylor, but even the SEC has Kentucky/Vandy. I agree that the Big 10 and SEC are better than anyone else, even if those conferences both have bottom feeders. I just don't think that the middle of the road programs in the Big 12 are that much worse than mediocre ones in the Pac 10 or ACC. I don't think that Stanford is miles better than Oklahoma State, or that Arizona beats Oklahoma handily.

So you're bashing on the BIG 12 and the Pac 10, but completely seem to ignore the fact that the BIG 10 has been total garbage if what you think is true about the Big 12 and the Pac 10. The BIG 10 has been strutting out some Ohio State teams that would run through an easy schedule for years. Michigan has been down for years over there and Penn State has had like one solid year in the last 5. So that's 3 conferences that have been pretty similar for the most part, and the year before last the Big 12 was the best conference in the country when OU, Texas, and TT were all going at it with Oklahoma State being pretty damn good and Missouri as well. It seems like you want to bash the BIG 12 just because they're not as good as the SEC. Well neither is any other conference. After the SEC, they're all very similar as far as the talent level goes and the schools that compete every year.

So you're jealous of the budget that Texas has and will continue to have? Is that what this is about? You can scream and pout all you want, but Texas isn't going away and will remain a powerhouse. Texas could probably buy out the school you root for and just close it down. :lol:

And just for your education since you're really not good at this. Texas is the 2nd most winning team in college football history in a close 2nd to Michigan, so like you mentioned about them "being a team that is supposed to win". They do.

And for this decade alone which is what matters most, Texas ranks 2nd behind Boise State for the most wins, but of course Boise State doesn't even play in a BcS conference so that would put Texas 1st actually.

So you're bashing on the BIG 12 and the Pac 10, but completely seem to ignore the fact that the BIG 10 has been total garbage if what you think is true about the Big 12 and the Pac 10. The BIG 10 has been strutting out some Ohio State teams that would run through an easy schedule for years. Michigan has been down for years over there and Penn State has had like one solid year in the last 5. So that's 3 conferences that have been pretty similar for the most part, and the year before last the Big 12 was the best conference in the country when OU, Texas, and TT were all going at it with Oklahoma State being pretty damn good and Missouri as well. It seems like you want to bash the BIG 12 just because they're not as good as the SEC. Well neither is any other conference. After the SEC, they're all very similar as far as the talent level goes and the schools that compete every year.

that's 1 year dude..

The difference is that the big 10 doesn't have over half of its teams no where close to being competitive in its conferenceevery year. Iowa & wisconsin are perenially ranked & illinois & minnesota are usually decent. the only consistent doormats are Northwestern & Indiana. Unlike in the big 12 where pretty much the whole north is usually walkthrough games for UT & OU & then you've got baylor & largely T A&M. It's a joke really.

LOLOL they DO win. More than any school other than Michigan ever has. You do know that this week is the first time since 2000 that UT hasn't been ranked -- the sixth longest streak in NCAA history? Pretty much every school on that list outside of Ohio State, OU, and Alabama would kill for UT's track record recently. Maybe LSU or Nebraska. But it's not like Penn State, A&M, Georgia, or Tennessee are ranked in the top 25 either.
