You really should just stop before you make yourself look completely ignorant.

Your statement was that there is no connection between donghorn U and A&M yet A&M is in your school fight song. How can there be “no connection “ but you include us in your official fight song?
Do you realize how stupid that makes you look? You are just digging yourself in deeper.
Do you have a problem with understanding the English language?

quote:

Hunnicut’s original motivation for the song was a counterpoint from taunts, songs and yells from the rival Texas Aggies, which he claimed ridiculed "The Eyes of Texas." "Long before I entered The University of Texas in 1909 and until about the year 1928 the Aggies had one of the most effective and awe inspiring songs used by any student body anywhere any time. ‘Farmers Fight’ at that time was their sacred College song," Hunnicut wrote in a 1952 letter. "It occurred to me that an effective way to strike back at the Aggies was to write a ‘Texas Fight’ song in answer to their(s)."

Of course there is a connection, why else would the UT Board of Regents fund TAMU to the tune of billion$ over the years?

It's this simple, OU is Texas' primary rival in football & A&M is the main rival in every other regard. It just so happens that football is the King in Texas.

There is a level of respect towards OU that A&M does not and will never receive from Texas, which may explain the denial of a rivalry among some fans.

I think maybe many of the Texas fans on here never went to school at University of Texas. Probably why they don't know the words to the Texas fight song.
