didn't the whorns do alright for themselves in their only trip into SEC territory this season?


That’s exactly my point. You’ve gotta do that week in and week out in the SEC.

Ole Miss plays @Alabama and LSU back to back weekends. Something Texas and OU has never had to do. Winning one game versus playing a gauntlet is not even comparable.

These are exactly the things that bottom half of the pack teams' have to tell themselves just to go to sleep at night. Like Ole Miss. Stop the "gauntlet" and "meat grinder" bullshite talk and just get better. Recruit better. Play better. Stop the excuses for Christ's sake.

I see we're still pretending like we don't have a historical data-set of how BIG XII teams do joining the SEC.

Second of all, it’ll take probably less than a decade for the Whorns to impose their will on the SEC to be able to do similar things. We’re all collectively letting in a Trojan horse. When we look back at what happened to the conference years and years down the road, the first shots fired will be the day we agreed to admit them.
How is Texas currently "imposing their will" by playing @TCU and @Houston this year, which are schools located in the state of Texas.

This is just dumb

Also gotta love the pivot from the original message that “Texas has no chance vs Alabama”

They are grasping at straws and Texas has routinely played a harder schedule than most of the conference on a year in and out basis primarily because we actually schedule tough ooc matchups instead of scheduling 4 little sisters of the poor

Oh I'm aware lol. This was entirely a troll post to take a jab at my biggest rival and generate fun Friday dialogue.

Cannot wait to beat the shite out of them in a few weeks and also join the SEC next year!

x4 times. Counting isn't your thing is it? I'm sure we can crowdsource some funds and get you one of those bead counter thingys.

Question though... Can you leave your state less than a whole time? I mean, is there such a thing as a half time? Quarter time? I suppose one could get all the way there and then forget their cleats and then have to come back to get them but technically that would still be a whole time. Help me understand.

Yep, these comments are getting old... and funnier. Especially when it comes from bottom feeders of the conference.

"Rude awakenings"
"Oklahoma is teh new Nerbrasky"
"Bama by 4 TDs" - 2022
"Bama by 4TDs" - 2023
"how will texsa handle Bama Joyless murderball"
"How will OU handle Auburnz run game"
"Auburnz by 3TDs cuz theyz gon' run over OU"
"Big-boy football" - 2012
"Ervery week is like playing in Tuscaloosa in teh SEC"
"Everybody is worned down mid-season in teh SEC"

It's the same people, every time and none of this shite happened. If anything, you're looking at Bama being swept by Uterus if sEwers doesn't go down last year, and I know you see that too. Keep pretending tho...

I was obviously dumbing it down for him because he had issues counting to the number "4". We're talking literally one hand's worth a fingers!!! If I could have spelled it in crayon for him I would have done that too but this site has limitations.

You obviously have north of a +5 coefficient of inbreeding, which is rare for south of the Red River. Please take care of the majority of your people down there.
