Back in the day, Oklahoma's most important games were played against Nebraska.
The self-importance of the Texas mindset is noted.
Clearly Texas and OU have upgraded and left the has-beens behind

Our biggest game was and is the texas games. But, like all other games mentioned, outside our fanbase no one gives a crap. I can’t speak for anyone else but I don’t circle other team’s big games to watch. It’s no big deal and nothing to get stirred up about.

The poster i was replying to said Texas has a self-importance mindset
Meanwhile impartial commentators like Josh Pate are literally on record saying the Texas OU game is the single best atmosphere in college football
So Texas has a self-importance mindset when impartial people also agree with us that it might be the best game?
The jealousy / insecurity on this board can be palpable at times

Josh Pate is a moron. He was probably paid to say that.
ETA- Doesn't he still work for 247? The 247 started by Utx alumni? Makes sense now. Yes, some Utx fig paid him to say that.

What did I day that wasn't true?
He's a moron- True
He works/worked for 247-True
247 was started and run by Utx alumni- True
Someone paid him to make that statement and that someone most likely had ties to Utx- True.
What's your problem with the truth? If it was some random reporter from Idaho who put that statement out then I wouldn't have said anything. But, Josh Pate has ties to Utx alumni and they help pay his bills. So, his opinion isn't really objective. And certainly not impartial......

My oldest goes to A&M. Just finished up freshman year. I've been open about that. I've also lived and worked in Texas since I graduated college in the late 90s. So, I'm aware of some of the bullshite you guys try to pull. Heard plenty about Utx at work over the years from co-workers that are alumni of other Big 12 schools.

The AD and shorthorn fans will soon realize that Arkansas isn't all you have to worry about now. Even great rivalries come and go as conferences get blown up.
There's no reason to think that the shorthorns and sooner wouldn't continue to be a thing since you both left for greener pastures and the SEC will schedule this rivalry every year. But your attention soon will be taken to brand new rivals and you will learn that the attrition level is different as they all are going to be more than happy to give you their best shot. Every week. That's the SEC, not Arkansas.

OK, I'm in a helping mode this morning. The shorthorn brought up Arkansas as a main rival. I merely pointed out that many new and interesting SEC rivals await the shorthorns.

As everyone knows, the Egg Bowl and LSU vs Alabama is right up there and Arkansas vs Texas will be once the Horns come over. Similarly, Texas vs A&M will be significant.

Bragging about having the best rivalry is nothing new. It’s like bragging about having the best BBQ. It’s all good.

They honestly have no idea what they have entered. Arkansas and ta&m have yet to understand what has hit them. UTexas and ou will be no different
