    That's funny, I've always thought the "Tell me about ...." threads were about Texas fans shit talking specifically about the subject school and not a thread on the Texas board for the fans of that sub

  • Keep ‘em coming - the Yormark and McGuire memes and vids - not only are they well deserved, most of them are hilarious. 🤣   Now that the Tech/UT series is officially over - or at least pause

IDGAF about preseason polls or hype.

Just want to see it on the field.

Just want to see the baby.  Nothing else matters.

Agreed. Preseason polls literally don't mean shit. College football needs to do away with them.

tech fan still butthurt... must have "raider rash"

 

Kyle Umlang had the best response to this silliness...

 

If brand value meant diddly shit y'all wouldn't have averaged 5.5 losses per season since 2010.

At least we have an excuse!

Edited by Brian Fantana

Texas is fucking rich.

Yep.  It is known.

You geniuses do realize that a big contributor to brand value is past success, don't you?

Or, maybe you didn't.

Fan.  Singular.

I know no other Tech fan that would do something like that, whereas every single Sooner I know would do that in a heartbeat if it didn't eat into their meth budget.

Ask Jerry Jones…

nobody with a brain doubts the brand equity of the Dallas franchise.

They haven’t won anything of significance in 27 years.  People laugh at the Cowboys.

The UT kiss the ring routine makes people giggle.

Lets be real...theres gotta be at least 2 Tech fans that have Horns Down ink, already halfway there with this guy just hope the other one wasn't dumb enough to put it somewhere he's gonna have to stare at upside down every day for the rest of his life...and its still a stupid thing to get inked up.

What an eclectic set of logos, it really is odd to see these conference mates. I suppose this is exactly what you'd expect from a bunch of schools with no place to go.

I mean, in August of 2023, every single college football team’s on-field success occurred in the past.

Wait. A TT fan is lecturing us about our team not accomplishing anything recently? 
 

Does that make sense to anyone?

1. It's a Texas Tech thread.  If you expected ring kissing behavior, you fucked up.

2. We didn't start the shit talking.

3. If you can't handle a dialogue then kindly go fuck yourself.

Edited by slorch

accurate.

 

we'll be shooting the shit and UT fan has to chime in, "yeah, but without us..."

 

Nobody gives a flying fuck.  Good luck getting your ass kicked.

 

We all agree Jeff Fisher sucks ass, but so what?

Maybe I should feel offended, but…a fan of a program with exactly one (shared) conference title in over 60 years, that has never played in the B12 CG, that has played in (and lost) only one major bowl game, ever, that has never finished in the top 5…is lecturing me about underperformance. 
 
one has to laugh

Then why are you here in the tech thread huh? Why not find your own thread?

Meh.  The surly way is that all( most) are welcome.  I'm down for the conversation.

If UT fan can't recognize the correlation with the Cowboys when it comes to brand equity/ results, I thought it was a great analogy.  A few posters try to do the big-brother moves and nobody here really feels that way.  If you're gonna engage, then don't get uppity when there is a response.

Wreck Em!!!

Makes more sense now why tech is last game...

No reason Tech shouldn't run away with the conference now that they got Yormark openly rooting for them against other conference members right? Must be nice to have that kind of pull at the league office from all the way at the top...

That 1956 Border Conference championship flag flies forever.  It was a hard fought win against conference mate Hardin Simmons to seal the deal

No polls until everyone has at least one conference game under their belt.

I would be in favor of this 100%. The shitty sports media wouldn't get their free content though.

Oh you wouldn't know me here, I'm some unaware dipshit loser UT fan with seventeen thousand posts on a texas tech board where I think I'm "one of the guys."

fify

It’s always awkward when the neighborhood dipshit reaches puberty.

The crash and burn will be hilarious

Crash and burn would imply first achieving flight.

That in and of itself would be an improvement.

You can't big brother a fanbase that has repeatedly been kicked in the nuts by its own football program.

That bullshit by the commish is interesting.   

1) we expected to get fucked by the refs but the commish is openly rooting against texas is a new low.  Fuck this conference.   I say we run it up anytime we can and publicly throw the bush league under the bus every chance we get.  When they start throwing out fines,  tell them to go fuck themselves.  When they threaten to withhold distributions bury their ass in law suits for fiduciary breach,  tortious interference and whatever else the boys can come up with.  
 

2) Whatever chance Tech had in the Horns looking past that game is gone.   Undefeated or .500,  belmont is going to want an ass beating.  

We have a good team this year.  Tech never beats a good Texas team in Austin.  And odds are their QB will be hurt by then.

C”mon. You can’t be serious. Not too long ago, we had the presidents of UT and OU attending Big 12 executive sessions while secretly colluding with the SEC commissioner against the conference in which they held membership. Besides, since when has any Texas fan given a rats ass about anything a Big 12 commissioner says?

Since the commissioner publicly stated he and the league office were blatantly biased.  He put the integrity of the league in question and made fair competition among league members suspect.  We can all suspect the fix is in - it’s another thing to say it and not expect consequences

"Why would you care that the guy who could possible fix games is speaking out loud about how much he dislikes your school and hopes they lose? You guys are just as bad because you made plans to get away from this group."

Chuckle, you believe a conference commissioner would be dumb enough to try to fix games undetected against an outgoing member, and you think my post is low IQ.
