Bobby Burton Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 that is scheduled for next week. I do not know what the announcement will be. But I have confirmed with a high-ranking official at the University what it will not be — any sort of neutral site arrangement. Beyond that, you’ll have to stay tuned for what CDC and Trev Alberts have to say. 8 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators CJ Vogel Posted August 15 Moderators Share Posted August 15 Good. A neutral site game for this rivalry would be horrible for CFB. Glad it will remain a home & home. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokeyiii Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 Has to be a sponsorship. Trev looking in the couch cushions for cash and we need to keep filling up the vault to Scrooge McDuck that thing. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syracusehorn Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 (edited) Trev's gonna hit CDC with the pie-to-the-face trick and Ags will laugh themselves silly for the next decade about how they pwn Texas. Edited August 15 by syracusehorn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up with this game on Thanksgiving and we still don't really know what to do with ourselves on Thanksgiving afternoon. The Cowboys just don't cut it but it will be hard to go head to head with the NFL. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cowboys are what they are….a rich, underachieving, overpromising, uberhyping, always disappointing team with glitz, glamour, and zero to show for it.

That is history reinvented. The last 38 times (1974-2011) Texas played the ags only 14 times on Thanksgiving night. The other 24 times was the Friday or Saturday after Thanksgiving. As a UT student, I still remember driving down to College Station in 1977 on the Saturday after Thanksgiving to watch Texas and Earl Campbell beat the ags 57-28.

Tuco Ramirez Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 I’m not sure what I’d prefer. A 57-28 thrashing in college station or a Justin Tucker last second FG to crush aggy spirits. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
