I’m not sure why we do this since 2nd and short is the freest of all downs, but that’s how we’re rolling. Have fun with it and win some bar bets.

Taking a guess here —- the coaches see it as a way to get the running game fired up after a slow first month of rushing (other than McCoy).

GC, you need to attend an Aggie game.

Gene, you start getting into the Spurs fans the further you go. They seem to attract the same fan base.

Funny, we commented on the Orwellian nature of the entire stadium. Don’t get me wrong, it is impressive, but with everyone wearing the same thing, doing the same thing, and that jumbotron, it got a little unnerving. And that’s why I just had to leave.

We also noticed that the civility of Texas fans is inversely proportional to their distance from the stadium.

At one point I put on my sunglasses, and I swear this was on the jumbotron:

you are correct. 1990. That was an angry crowd.

Godzillamatron is starting to beat me down. Everyone is hypnotized by it and commercials are getting larger applause than game action. It’s almost Orwellian.

Art:

1. ‘90, right? Awesome to hear.
2. Yes. Sad for Irby though.
3. I tend to ignore the band.
4. Godzillatron should show Winger videos during timeouts

Yeah, down and distance was nowhere to be found. And I spent most of the small amount of time I was there staring at the videboard with my mouth agape.
