Alabama vs. Oklahoma


I am SO looking forward to this one. If they can make it annual, it has the potential to become the top modern rivalry in football.




I'm hoping for this too. Hope it can be the same kind of respectful rivalry like we had with Nebraska when they were still one of the top teams back in the day. Rivalries don't always have to be based on hate.
Looking forward to playing a SEC schedule and playing great teams every Saturday.
Fall Saturdays will be Epic

Having grown up in Birmingham and after years of visiting and living in Austin, it's clear you have no clue what you're talking about.

So stupid that AU/UF ended. It was the 2nd most played series at the time and AU is the closest SEC school to UF.

Yeah. I hear Alabama is bursting with fine dining establishments. McDonalds and Waffle House really pack the place on Friday nights.

Austin used to be a great town, fun, exciting and safe.

Now it is a shitehole rivaling San Francisco with its feces filled streets, drugs, homeless and high priced everything.

I’m not old enough for that and I don’t cry thinking about the swc days but I do miss playing Texas the only team that really made us tingle with dislike.

And that said, who exactly do you think Ross Dork was talking about when he bragged on your rich boosters - 20 or 30 year olds?

I heard that austin fixed their homeless problem, they herded up all the Whornes alumni and put them under one bridge....

But let’s keep the RRSO in Dallas I don’t want to verify.....

lol and when am I saying “frick Arkansas for existing” in any of my posts since 2018? The vitriol has never been replicated. I’m not sure why it’s aimed at Texas (I’m sure there’s a bitterness for some about not getting in and having to go to Arkansas instead), but I just find it comical that y’all care so much. Especially when Arkansas is third most important on UT’s campus at best

Oh wait, aren’t you the poster that got upset over the masters and then proclaimed Jordan should quit during the same temper tantrum? Only for him to win the very next event less than a week later? No wonder you’re upset by my presence for continuing to call you out for that

You can thank the stupid fricking aggy governor of Texas Rick “the dick” Perry for giving tax breaks to all of the California Corporations (Texas Enterprise Fund) that moved into Texas which brought in thousands of idiots that voted for the same stupid shite that is destroying California.

Who the hell wouldn't enjoy a league of this:

Arkansas
Ole Miss
Mizzou
Texas
Aggy
LSU
Oklahoma
Miss State


Pretty sure LSU, Miss State, and Ole Miss fans wouldn't enjoy it. We would be giving up real traditional rivalries in the SEC for more forced rivalries in the Big12 lite.

African Americans vote Democratic at a clip of 87%. Georgia is 30-35% AA. Georgia has a much larger percentage of affluent AA than other southern states. Affluent people vote at much higher percentages. Even though affluent AA are actually starting to trend Conservative.

AL and MS are Red because your poor Caucasian’s vote at a much higher percentage than your poor AA. And you have la minimal population of affluent AA.

And I’m a pretty conservative fellow.
And what does voting realities have to do with Auburn’s mediocre football team?

It always makes me laugh when fans have such a problem with Texas just for the mere fact of existing, whereas Texas doesn't really think about any other schools like that whatsoever


Texas’ presence in the SWC and Big 12 evoked a lot of hate because UTx was a big fish in a small pond. Now they’re coming to the ocean where they’ll be swimming with sharks. I doubt there’ll be the same degree of dislike for the Longhorns that you’ve seen before, except from your traditional rivals Arkansas and A&M.

There’s only one that will flourish:

Texas vs Vanderbilt- “The Battle for the Bottom” to see which one can capture an SEC victory.

Said he would never win another major.

He won a tournament that had several Korn Ferry players after missing the cut at the masters

Poor Texas. Garbage at football and basketball and struggling in baseball right now.

You act like everyone wants in Texas. I’m sure some kids from Texas that go to Arkansas did but nobody from outside of Texas ever thinks about going to Texas. Sorry kid you need new material.

Good luck with Kansas this year.

Now get back to your PlayStation little Jimmy. Mommy need to give you more money so you can buy another game?

You said "his golf game is done." And then he went out and beat the reigning FedEx Cup Champion less than a week later. Or I forgot: is Patrick Cantlay playing Korn Ferry? Imagine having "golfer" in your name and knowing so little about golf.

Didn't Arkansas go to a bowl game for the first time in like 4 or 5 years last year? Wow, you guys are really the pinnacle of college football. I'm sure the history books show a big winning percentage for Arkansas over Texas over the years... oh wait

And LOL at your school posturing. The reason Arkansas appeals to out of state kids is because it's largely made up of kids from Texas that couldn't get into Texas OR Texas a&m (seriously... how embarrassing is that?)

Maybe it's just because Arkansas is a joke of a school in comparison and you'd have to be in a coma not to be able to enroll. Meanwhile, Texas gets their pick of the litter from out of state students that are deemed smart enough to enroll in the business or engineering school. Something Arkansas will never understand.

Wow. Either you're 12 years old or 60 years old. Either way, I hope that sounded funnier in your head, because it came across as extra cringe after being dominated on this board, yet again

Imagine being on a SEC board since 2018. Little man syndrome?

Imagine losing to Kansas in football or having a garbage basketball program.

Imagine bragging about a golfer (who didn’t win a NC at Texas) winning a tournament the week after the masters that only a handful of legit golfers played in.

I do know the field for a tournament the week after a major is nothing to brag about.

Now go study for finals little Jimmy. I don’t want you having to go to a community college in a couple years

Imagine bragging about your grandpas school not realizing kids from Arkansas business schools get just as good of job. Heak even I have a Texas grad working under me.

Poor kids
