    UT's schedule looks like they will win out. I don't see anyone beating them at home (which is their toughest opponent A&M to end the season).

    So basically we could be seeing UT vs. OSU for the title game if UT can get past Texas Tech. WVU would be the only team standing in their way. And I don't see WVU beating both Louisville and Rutgers.

    Michigan stand no chance at OSU to end the season. They have no offense to speak of.

    I can pretty well pinpoint my own. I was raised in Tiger Stadium - didn't hate tu. Went to grad school at Texas A&M - didn't hate tu. Then moved to Houston and started to live and work amonst them. I gradually started to dislike them more and more. Then, Mac Brown did my boy Major Applewhite (he went to my high school) wrong. I've hated them ever since. I feel pain every time they win, and I'm overjoyed when they lose. Neither is on the same level as I feel for LSU, but it's a close second!

    They call themselves THE university of Texas, many don't believe the THE part.

    SpringTiger, that's pretty intense feelings u got there. But I can understand having lived in Austin the past 3 1/2 years....its pretty pathetic out here.

    Whats up with the "tu", though? Explanation, please.

    Deceks, I hope this is your night (u too Spring).

    Go Red Raiders!

    I love these announcers...you can tell they want UT to lose, but they are trying not to be so obvious about it.

    The OSU/USC game was blatantly for OSU. I don't know if they were PAC-10 announcers. They definitely sounded like OSU homers or USC haters.

    It's derogatory. The sippers hate it. You should try it some time. Just be sure to duck after you say it.;)

    Oh, cool.

    Do you pronounce it "too", or do you say "tee-you"?

    And can you guess what their little saying is for LSU? Altho this may be the same derogatory thing everyone says, not sure.

    Delay of game is pretty unforgivable for a team such as Tech.
