Texas Longhorns-National Champs!(Sweep College World Series)
A beautiful mind ^ | 6/22/02 | Bevo

Posted on 06/22/2002 2:02:16 PM PDT by Diddle E. Squat

They missed a couple of extra points, but UT beats South Carolina 12-6, to take it all at the College World Series. A former Yale baseball star is probably smiling right now.

The toughest games they had in the post season were in Texas, against Baylor and Rice!

If it weren't for Oklahoma cowboys and Mexican prostitutes, there wouldn't be any Texans.

Never mind...just another disgruntled Hog fan.

Congrats! Enjoy! Have another Shiner!

Hook-em Horns!!!

What a great dominating performance by our pitching staff/whole team. The tower is lit up 100% orange tonight, with a beautiful #1. For those of you not blessed to live in Austin, here's a (blurry) webcam shot of the tower:

Now for #1 in football, then onward and upward!... Texas is the only division 1A school in the nation this year with a football team in a BCS bowl, basketball team in the sweet 16, and baseball team in the CWS. What a great time to be a Longhorn!

Hook-em, Ted

Congrats from a North of the Red River Aggie (Okla.State, formerly Okla.A&M). Good to see the Big 12 on top and hope to see OSU return to its previous form for a trip to the CWS next year. See ya there!!!

I am very proud of the way our team played today. Hook 'em Horns!!

Unfortunately they are the best baseball team (including professional) in Texas this year.

I am a RICE fan, however, I work with 2 aggies and they are convinced that the tournament was rigged, bought and paid for by the Horns.

Aggies need to wear aluminum SUITS!!!

And to think some of the posters on this thread think soccer is boring. What were the TV ratings for the College World Series? Who cares?

Oh come on now. I live in the area and spent this last week watching every game I could on TV and saw 4 games in person. You won't find baseball played anywhere with more zeal and love of the game.

Tues. afternoon game started by having a little boy (maybe 12) sing star spangled banner. He nailed it big time. Fans around me had tears in their eyes. I make no money on the series in any way shape or form, but I do recommend it to anyone who loves the game. Its still God, Baseball, Hot Dogs, Apple Pie for me. OK, the NFL comes in there somewhere.

The Longhorns were the better team yesterday....I wish we could have played a series, like they will do next years for the championship. Most Gamecocks are not really that upset about losing the game, as we were much happier to send our most hated rivals (the tigers of clemtech) back home in back to back elimination game ass whuppings. THAT is what a rivalry is all about! lol GO COCKS!!!!!!

Okie cowboys, Mexican prostitutes, pretty funny for a hillbilly!...

I'm sure you'd hate to have missed the celebration on campus last night, so here's a video clip for your viewing pleasure:

Congrats to the Gamecocks for getting that far in the CWS. Enjoy the victory over my Clemson Tigers as it will be the last one for a while. At least the coot fans will have that to look back on.

Afraid not, pal. We humiliated and demoralized you on national t.v. twice, by a combined score of 22-6. The chokin curse is really starting to effect you taters. Heck, we beat you in the major 3 this year and are 11-6 against you in all head to heads this century. Get used to the view.....you clemtechers will have it for a long, long time to come! Bwhahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
