syracusehorn Posted November 25 Share Posted November 25 It sounds like he's downplaying the rivalry aspect of the game. I hope someone has told him not to stay in college station Friday night or eat anywhere without bringing our own people/food. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syracusehorn Posted November 25 Share Posted November 25 33 minutes ago, GoHorns1 said: He didn’t downplay the rivalry. We'll have to disagree. He only talked about the game inside the stadium. Hopefully he understands that the game starts when the team arrives in CS. These folks are nutjobs and have 13 years of pent-up shenanigans to unload.
