Yeah, that's one of the two reasons these OU losses just burn me up(and probably most Longhorns). It would be one thing to lose to Oklahomans, but to lose to a team that is half Texas traitors, oh my achin' head. UT-A&M is brother versus brother, but UT-OU is us versus the infidel! The other salt in the wounds is that stupid downturned hook'em signs. We have a positive hand symbol of our team and pride, all they have is a negative bash of their opponent.

But I don't want that coming off as sour grapes. Oklahoma is a great conservative state, with good values and good people. And their team has beaten our butts 3 years in a row, are better coached, and thus have been the better team for 3 years in a row, with a nat'l championship on top of that.

I think Mack is safe for another two years, unless he loses ugly in this game again next year, or the team loses 4 more games this year. He needs to show that he's learned from prior mistakes by showing more aggressivenessm, preparation, and mental toughness. I wouldn't give up on him just yet, but some offensive coaching changes are likely in order.

However, in a couple of years, with 4 or 5 OU losses in a row and no NC after 7 years, it might be the end of the line. And if OU insists on moving part of the series to Norman, I could see Texas doing whatever it takes to lure Stoops down to Austin.

Almighty G-d Forbit it!

Although I am now a OU football fan exiled to the Left Coast, there just ain't NUTHIN'
like that Red River Shootout in Dallas. I went to the State Fair on game day
and even I didn't get to go to the game...it was a great controlled riot!

And I enjoyed it this Texas-Sized Spectacle...even if Texas won that year!

Please...we've lost that annual Thanksgiving weekend bash with Nebraska...we can't
lose the Red River Shootout.
