Inviting Horns is like having the shitty uncle at Thanksgiving. He won’t dominate the meal, but he sure could ruin it for everyone.

It’s embarrassing to see the long time SEC fanbases be so willfully naive. You know nothing about conference strife……yet.

Posters are purposely misconstruing “they are terrible conference mates with “we’re scared of losing to them.”

And once Texas stars their shite here, and they will, these knuckleheads who are in full support will be the first to be all indignant and yell "throw them out"!

Perhaps you use more hand gestures to say the same thing

It's pretty pathetic.

SEC teams (especially the top tier) had routinely handled Texas and Oklahoma in the last 20 years

You can expect aTm fans to show fear. They go from being only-brother to little bro again. But the Bama, LSU, UGA, Fl fans fearing that big bad Texas will control the SEC is pathetic

Don’t take 10 percent of the posters and broadcast them as 100.




Damn you’re dumb.

Arkansas came to the SEC because of Texas. So did Missouri and A&M. I don't think you understand how shitty it is to share a conference with them.

I don’t want UT and OU so bama and auburn can move to the east, I want them so that the SEC can move to 4, 4 team pods and a 9 game conference schedule. That way we can play every team in the SEC every 2 years and go to every away stadium every 4 years as opposed to what we have now where you play every team every 6 years and away games every 12 years.

This doesn’t address his point. Texas didn’t kill either of these conferences because they won too much. They killed it because they used their money to throw their weight around, get what they want, and royally frick up everything for everyone else, and ultimately themselves. That’s what he’s getting at.

It takes a strong commissioner to keep all these AD’s and presidents in line. I think the SEC has that currently and has had it in the past. One thing that may help keep Texas in check is that aTm, Arkansas, and Missouri will vote against Texas in everything almost reflexively. I bet LSU falls in line with them pretty closely as does MSU.

I’m not at all scared of Texas, I just don’t want a flood of their annoying, entitled fans posting on this forum.

Fear is not the appropriate description, at all.

Fans are leery of Texas because of their reputation, which they have rightly earned according to former members of the big 12/SWC.

Are you crazy? Nobody's scared of TX. Most of us don't like Pricks!

I am not afraid of Texas one bit. They are a cancer where they are and will be here too.
