Agree. After I said what I said, I thought about what it would be like if both fan bases had an entire day to drink before the game. lol

And do any if us really want to be in fair park when the sun goes down? And even tho it's Oct, it's still pretty hot at 2:30pm. I think there are plenty of valid reasons for this game to be at 11am

I don't care at all for the 11 am kick off.

Try living in Australia. 3am kick off for me

And more importantly, what would happen to the state fair?! Lol

Valid points, but several stadiums around the Country are in less than desirable neighborhoods and night games are still played there.

Less desirable places??...like Lubbock or Waco?....or ....CS?

Ding! Ding! Ding!....we have a winner! These days a kid(not named Whittington) is going to the draft as soon as they are eligible. It doesnt matter how many draft services tell them they should stay another year  (I am not mentioning names and Lil Jordon Humphery is grateful). Hell, I remember that fans were howling that Swoops had burned his shirt....Swoops! 

I say use em....use em early

Man have we benefitted from this freshman class !

We have, but the biggest thing for me is next year when we will have to replace some starters. This class will be the next man up.
