re: Texas is gonna have a real rough go of it in the SEC

It hurts their feelings to do horns down....poor babies will never survive SEC!

Texas going to learn real quick you are just 1 of 16 and nothing special. They have run the Big 12 offices for decades. We only think Alabama runs the SEC. It was written in the Big 12’s by laws that Texas, and also Oklahoma, were above everyone else.

Horns down? Much to do about nothing. Unbelievable; there’s always some idiots offended by just about anything. Get over it.

For such a holier-than-thou group, I would be surprised if A&M fans didn't almost universally condone taunting an opponent during the national anthem. Although, they seem to be incredible irrational when it comes to anything burnt orange related.

Not entirely true. Certain SEC programs have much more pull than others. Texas will have a seat at that table for sure. Too much $ to not have an opinion that matters. You’d be lying to yourself if you think South Carolina has the same weight at the table as Texas.

OU, Texas, LSU, Bama, Tennessee, Auburn, Georgia, Florida.

What's wrong with horns down?

He was hired to sing the song, not interject his position. He has every right to his freedom of expression. He used it. He does not have a right to sing the national anthem at the CWS. And they probably covered this with him before he did it. Little douchey....

Do you mean “condemn”?

I agree with you that the more successful and more affluent programs in the SEC tend to have more unofficial influence, but that ignores the absolute fact that Texas was the sacred cow of both the Big 12 and before that, the old SWC. Everything from the Longhorn Network to a larger cut of the profits were the order of the day.

T-Sippers are y’all n for a rude awakening because they were always allowed to do whatever they wanted and the good of the conference and other members didn’t matter.

But the true difference is that the days of Texas having 2 or 3 legitimately challenging games a year are over! Instead of Kansas, Iowa State, Etc. They’ll see AUBURN, LSU, A&M, BAMA, ARKANSAS, Ole Miss & State (or a similar lineup)

Finally, I remember the typical, Chicken $hit way UT handled things that n the past and the the SEC just will not allow. A great example was them refusing to provide LSU’s band or alumni any seats for the 2019 game other than 1500 seats in the corner of the upper deck.

Let the beatings begin…


GEAUX TIGERS!!!

Texas gonno get its feels hurt...
