LOL. I mean, I know they yell that all the time and isn't there some shit dressed up like a big elephant or something? But what does "roll tide" actually MEAN? Crimson tide sounds like what some stupid fat woman would call her period after she got tired of saying "Aunt Flo." NOT TONIGHT HONEY, THE CRIMSON TIDE HAS ROLLED IN. WTF. How is that appealing?

If you ask me, it's as stupid as that jacked ass dancing tree from Stanford and Kevin Pittsnogle hanging out together at a Yankees game.

Dumb ass Yankee.

Crimson Tide was coined after the Iron Bowl in like 1910 or something. It was a rainy day and a sportswriter coined the term to describe the offensive line that had dark red clay and dirt all over their uniforms.

There is no E in the south. We only have cocaine for the rich fraternity guys, meth for the white trash, crack for the inner city types, and pot for the Kavu, lets go kayaking crowd. This is a rave free zone

Good luck with what? OU is going to be slightly better than they were last year barring Peterson stays healthy. One bad turn or tackle on that shredded ankle of his and its going to be major trouble. Noboby knows what Rhett Bomar is going to do either. He was virtually untested last year and pretty much only won the games that OU should have, minus TCU.....which was a joke....and please don't say Oregon was a huge upset because they obviously cared nothing about the Holiday Bowl and pretty much sucked. I couldn't really tell anything good about him in the Texas game because he was flat on his back for most of it.

OU's defense will be good, for sure. Rufus Alexander and Latimer are good for sure at the Linebacker spots and DJ Wolfe is a solid DBack. They are also returning 5 other lettermen. We however, return our full offensive line minus one and 8 other starters on offense. Quan Cosby, Pittman, and Limas Sweed will certainly be one the best wide receivers in college football....which goes along nicely with our 1-2 running back punch of Jamaal Charles and Selvin Young....who have been rated preseason as the best backfield in the country. Our experience line will give Colt McCoy plenty of time to throw. Yes, he lacks experience, but he has a strong arm and got to learn for a year under the most prolific QB in college football history.

Nevermind the fact that our defense returns 7 which includes the full defensive line. Tim Crowder is a lock to be a top 3 draft pick, Henry Melton is replacing Rodrique Wright on the d-line....and allthough he was a consensis all-american....we all saw what Melton did to opposing defenses when he had the ball last year. The guy is a freak of nature. He will go along nicely with Brian Robison and Frank Okam. Michael Griffin is a preseason Nagurski candidate at safety. Two returnig starters at LB, allthough it will be tough to top the level that Cedric Griffin and Michael Huff set last year as the best backfield defenders in the country. Aaron Ross and Terell Brown are both badass CB's. We also have Sergio Kindle, the number 1 LB recruit in the country.

Defensively - Ive got to say we are both about even. Texas has the better line, OU has more experienced LB's.

Offensively - I just don't think OU has the personell besides Peterson....and youre offensive line is absolutely horrible. You lost everyone, face it. One returning wideout who didn't get the ball at all last year. With a good line, things will come easy to Colt McCoy, he has a cannon for an arm and is damn fast, rushed for over 1000 his senior year HS. Yes, Vince Young was a God....is Texas going to run a triple option this year....no.....which is promising becasue many areas of our game have become better even since last season.

I should also point out that we signed 11 Rivals Top 100 recruits. The rest of the Big XII signed 4 combined. To put that into perspective...the SEC signed 20 Top 100 recruits collectively.

That is not the question of the year. The question is whether Auburn or LSU will win the west.

You've never been to Kinnick, so this makes sense.

It's been consistently listed in the top 10 toughest places to play by multiple sports writers, including Ivan Maisel, the Gameday guys and Mel Kiper.

It's a very old-style stadium - holds 75k, all are right on top of the field, old brick and loud (and drunk) as fuck. It's quite comparable to the Horseshoe, and probably only behind the Big House in the Big 10 - it's a great stadium, you southern cats would dig it.

I agree with Shiner....sorry I just don't see it up there with Austin, LSU, the Swamp, Alabama, etc. etc..........


.......And please don't use "the gameday guys" as someone we should pay attention to. Those morons (besides Lee Corso) were the ones who proclaimed USC to be the best team EVER in college football last year. They also started that mindless crap about USC winning three straight championships. Kirk Herbstreet can suck my balls. Hell, it wouldn't surprise me if they ranked USC #1-8 on the upcoming preseason polls.

I like Iowa too, but they have had a tendency to choke in painful ways (painful for my Iowa alum pal valkyrie!)
