That's the thing about these rivalry games, they can (and have in the past) been huge upsets, since A&M has nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Here's an email forward some of you Big XII folks might enjoy:

The Big 12 teams as the Middle East:

TEXAS: Iran. Somewhat of a controlling power in the region but it will all come crashing down because they have a highly functioning retard as a leader.

KANSAS: Kuwait. Tons of riches and unrealized potential, but still vulnerable to Iran.

NEBRASKA: Iraq. A wealth of history but the country as a whole is going in the tank and they will kill themselves off before it's all over.

OKLAHOMA: Saudi Arabia. A proud kingdom, once torn up by fighting but known for historic past and prosperous future, surrounded by Iran and Iraq, with fanatics in Al-Qaeda (see below) who'll stop at nothing to bring them down.

MISSOURI: Syria. Evil schemers who will stoop to whatever level they need to win. No real history to speak of but thinks they are the cradle of civilization.

OKLAHOMA STATE: Al Qaeda. No real country, just a movement of disgruntled fanatics who live to destroy the hope of those more fortunate. No other goal in life than to bring down the House of Saudi Arabia. Terrorizing that country in the late 90's and early 2000 years is the crowning achievement in their history. Signing day was a major setback to the movement. They are fanatically loyal to their new leader.

KANSAS STATE: Palestinian territories. No one really cares or worries about them unless they can be of some use (i.e. winning a battle once in a while against Iran that causes a bit of shake up in rankings)

IOWA STATE: Qatar. Where is Qatar? Is it in our area?

Texas A&M: Afghanistan. Not much going for it other than the crazy commoners.

BAYLOR: Israel. None of the others understand why they're in the area. Just leave them alone. What did they ever do to you?

COLORADO: Morocco. Not really part of the Middle East. Has other things to do than fight (or play football). Rumor is you can always go there for a good time.

TEXAS TECH: Libya. Has a charismatic leader in a land of nothingness who will rattle his sword but knows he doesn't have a whole heck of a lot to back it up. Pulls the occasional sneak-attack and cries "Victory!"

I meant beating OSU and losing to OU, i had them switched up in my post.
As for rushing the field, it was a MAJOR game, our 500th win, and we beat Texas. It wasa big enough game to where i think rushing the field was appropriate, but i don't think we should rush this week [actually anyone that does is a moron]. I do think people sould have waited until the END of the quarter to rush but, i didn't sit in that section [thats were all the rude students notoriously sit], and i hate them.

You've led the series for a while, but that hasn't stopped them from beating you in the past 2 years. Don't get me wrong the only time i root UT is A&M and this year against OSU, but last two years have been dissapointing. But the fact is true that A&M is doing horribly this year.

well, i have to go to my engineering advising session so i don't know if i missed anything...

Kevin, that's pretty funny, although clearly biased towards OU.

Iowa State as Qatar though? Isn't Qatar one of the richest countries in the middle east?

Clearly, this wasn't written by a geography major.

Or even by someone who has had a geography class.

ETA: But you deny that allegation about Mack Brown? There goes your objectivity

Why do I think this is so funny? I have a very racist aunt whose three children all went to UT. She hate arabs, particularly Iranians. I'm half tempted to send this to her, but am afraid she will not take it as a joke.

Good luck to Iowa and OSU tomorrow. Clear the way for a Texas/SEC Champ BCS title game. That will be the best game.

I heart the Bears but I'm afraid a win wasn't meant to be.

Glad to see another MSU win. Next week against PSU will be interesting!!

Thanks Michigan. At least you got the Little Brown Jug this year again. I'm so glad they won since my brother traveled from Alabama to Minnesota for the game!
