I'm going with a party of 9. I think it'll be like UGA in Tiger Stadium last year, more like 20,000 or so. But Tiger fans will be in a mix of purple and gold, so it won't stand out like the red did last year.

I'm betting for at least 30,000 traveling to the Rose Bowl in 2021. Similar to the crew that traveled to Green Bay.

My prediction is about 85% Texas and 15% Tiger fans in the stadium which would mean that a ton of Tiger fans actually getting tickets for the game. The UT people are more jacked up for this game and pumped about this years team than they have been in decades. If we have 15,000 of our guys in the stadium that means that 12,000 got tix in the open market since we were only allocated 3,000. We could probably sell 40,000 if they were available which is not the case. See you in Austin.

You are delusional about 60k in the stadium. Not happening. I guess 15k actually make it into the stadium.

Not happening, may have more Tiger fans outside. Home teams would never allow that to happen. Only way that would ever happen is if home fans sold their tickets to visiting fans,. Being that it’s LSU that Texas is playing I don’t see that. LSU is big draw especially in that area of the country. And

I do think that there will be enough LSU fans in the stands to be heard during game.

You are correct and I think that we will make some noise. The Horn fans are as pumped for this game as are we, and are not giving up their tickets which is the only way that we can get more than our paltry 3k allotment of fans into the seats.

There will be a lot of LSU fans, many who live in Texas. There will be a strong presence in the stadium, but Texas fans will still outnumber them bigly. Why can’t yall just go have fun instead of trying to make it a takeover? Go enjoy Texas and support LSU, stop trying to dominate and show off.

I agree. I think we will have somewhere between 3K and 10K fans inside the stadium, but many more outside. The Texas AD is actively asking Horn fans not to sell their tickets to LSU fans. Hopefully, our fans will remember this when the time comes for the game in 2020.

Is that supposed to be him crying? Tears of joy I guess. I could understand being emotional when you get to coach where you always wanted to coach and you're having success. I mean he couldn't be crying because he sad ,they were winning the game


No he was crying like the little bitch he is.



"Tom Herman complaining about Will Grier running it in on the 2-pt conversion to win the game is fantastic."


Some comments to tweet:
Is sticking out the ball to cross the goal line now a celebration? Ridiculous!

Last year, the Horns down was an unsportsmanlike penalty on Tech, so it is easy to see why Herman felt entitled to a penalty in that situation.

David sills got an unsportsmanlike penalty yesterday for the horns down. If you have to rely on penalties to win. Your not a good coach. Man up!

They called that ridiculous horns down penalty. He wanted the taunting call for sticking the ball across the line. Lol in other words he mad they lost.

Tom Herman is quite the P.O.S.... how anyone wants their kid to play for this guy I will never understand

This grown man that was taunting a kid is complaining about someone taunting?


AND THE BEST:
He's just mad because it robbed him of a chance to kiss his players after the game


Tom Herman complaining about Will Grier running it in on the 2-pt conversion to win the game is fantastic.





There is a video of the whole thing including the beautiful TD pass and the 2-point conversion in this article.

In his postgame press conference, Herman whined that Grier’s score was allowed to count after Grier pointed the ball across the goal line on the play. Since, you know, apparently he thinks that’s taunting:

Grier and his teammates were flagged for their celebration after he scored, but he wasn’t penalized before he crossed the goal line because that would have been absurd.

Here’s video of the play:
Tom Herman Is The Biggest Jackass In College Football





It’s pretty rich for Herman to complain about anyone taunting or celebrating, when he mocked Missouri quarterback Drew Lock on the sidelines of the Texas Bowl last year:






That's your boy, you should feel VERY proud.

I'm headed there to tailgate before the game and walk around. Don't have tickets, but if I can find some at a good price I'll go in.

WV won that game with a two point conversion. They scored 2. Got flagged. Then did it over again.

And Herman doesn't need a REASON to cry. He gets emotional periodically.
