There's nothing like the RRR but it is played every year and more than likely the 2 teams will meet twice in the same year. I've been to a few TX/Ho-U games and there's definitely nothing else like it. And I was at the Cotton Bowl for TX/Loser State in 01 and it was bananas. But this year's TX/Loser State game is in Austin, which won't happen again possibly in our lifetime. I remember that game well. LSU wasn't near the program/team they are now. 1 DBut82 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven’t seen Bevo blvd tailgate yet and it’s probably a espn game day night game. But I have never been to an OU game. money isn’t an issue, which one would y’all recommend? Texas OU at the Cotton Bowl is a bucket list item. I’d go that route. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We need to take 3 this year, in a small class and 5 next year in a big class. (there are already 5-6 guys in '21 that are as good as PU) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bevotee 27 Report post Posted July 23 Jumping back in time a bit here, but does it seem likely that Ja'Quinden Jackson was a silent commit for a while, and the coaches waited for an opportune time for him to go public? If so that proved to be a genius move, as it reversed a bunch of bad press at the time. 2 hornag and Sirhornsalot reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately, even though we were ranked #4, we got shutout 13-0 Probably the most notable thing was that Lynn Amadee kicked a 23 yard field goal in the first half that was the first field goal in the Cotton Bowl game since 1942. 3 UTfish, 63_Texas_1 and DBut82 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
