I can tell you that Georgia fans are much more concerned about playing @ Alabama than playing texas, and we aren't even too concerned about Alabama.

Only a few more months until it all blows up and they start talking about their rowing trophies.

Lets give them some credit. They have been very good at the olympic sports, just not the big 3 sports.

Who celebrates their entrance into the SEC with a massive 4th of July celebration? Do they not realize what is coming? Too funny..clueless as to what Big 12 was vs SEC. Not gonna be pretty

What a cocky SOB - he is right about one thing though, it is Arkansas Super Bowl. It'll be an awesome atmosphere every year when y'all come to Fayetteville. If y'all are wusses enough to get the horns down "banned" it'll be even more contentious from our point of view, I still wonder where that originated, either Arkansas, A&M or OU. Heck, we come out of the womb arm first with a horn's down sign.

Even if we lose, you'll go home with a few more broken noses, bruises and "danm that guy is small but he hits like a truck"s

WPS!

From what I heard, that dude was intoxicated during the SEC Network broadcast earlier this week.

Eh. Texas will be a fun game this year, but no different than Bama, Clemson or LSU this upcoming season. A good opponent with history who is not a rival. It would be the same if we played OU instead of Texas this season.

Texas is a brand, but they're not Bama (who's a brand at the top of their game) or even ND (who's not at the top of their game but is a much bigger brand).

Well for Florida this year, that's true, right after...

Georgia and FSU and Tennessee and Miami and LSU.

Definitely above UCF and Samford though.

About even with Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Kentucky and Texas A&M.

frick me, what a schedule.

He doesn’t know shite. For A&M this year and possibly the Hogs it might be true.

For Bama, UGA, Tenner, and LSU this is definitely not true. They all want to beat Texas but not their superbowl. There is a lot of long standing hate in the SEC. CDC has no idea.

'Super Bowl' isn’t an important game on the schedule of any NCAA football team

They are trying really hard to fit in, its kind of hilarious. Pretty damn delusional statement.

Everyone will soon understand what Texas is and the mistake that has been made. Unfortunately, it will be too late.

Texas has no desire to “fit in”.
