ahh another good weekend - Auburn wins and Alabama LOSES war damn eagle baby!

I watched the Arkansas and Florida game - that shot by Bua was a cheap shot. We then got to see his belly aching the rest of the time, what a baby.

Hmmm.... I left the game early, but what was the score of the Michigan/Illinois game? 56-14? or something.

Damn.

And note to others-- I've never been to an away game but I'm assuming to save myself the trouble, I would NEVER sit in an opposing student section with my team colors or anything of my team on. I would just enjoy the game and pretend like I'm one of them.

That was bad for A&M. I hope Fran gets their stuff together.. He hopefully get started sometime AFTER the Oklahoma game

If he continues like this, maybe TCU would have him back?

Probably not... Maybe Fox Sports SW needs another color commentator

Slocum needs to be given some credit for being a good coach. Maybe the whorns will hire him into their soon to be vacated HC position.

Hmm...I didn't know that not going to the UW prevented me from cheering for them. Does that also mean that I can't cheer for the Packers because I don't live in Green Bay?

It doesn't prevent you from cheering for UW. But, if you didn't go to UW, you've got no place to talk trash, taunt, or rub losses in the face of people that UW beats.

I'm not saying you should have picked your college by their football team, but in MY eyes, if you are not an alum or spent time or money at that particular institution, your affiliation with that school is substantially less than mine with A&M. I toughed it out, spent a lot of money, attended a world class institution, and graduated with a degree. I am an Aggie. Same for those that attend NU, Oklahoma, Notre Dame, and even <shudder> Texas. If not, you're just a fan. And a classless fan if you talk trash about another school without a degree to back you up.

As far as the Packers, who cares? it's pro football. All you're doing is basically rooting for one uniform design over another, the players have no loyalty to their cities or fans anymore.

As a UW student, I give Kath permission to talk trash to anyone about UW football. I was talking trash about teams that played Wisconsin long before I was old enough to be in college. And I cheered for my UW boys while I was at the University of Minnesota too.

Unlike you trash-talking Texans, we Wisconsinites have enough class to love all the schools in our state, not just the ones we go to.

Yes, my team won. AND, all of the teams I don't really like (which are few) lost... except one. It was a good day.

Except for maybe Platteville, because their football team could get beat by Marquette's.

*For those of you not from Wisconsin, Marquette does not have a football team and hasn't for quite some time.

fine.

then i reserve the right to call you both bandwagon and classless fans. Yes, it must be easy for those in wisconsin to love all wisconsin teams, you have what, one Div 1 football program? just like nebraska, except of course for the success.

Because the quality of a state's higher educational system is proportional to the number of Div 1 football teams.

Inversely proportional.

Get your Texas ass out of your Texas head.

Soooo since I go to a "satellite" school of University of Michigan Ann Arbor, does that mean I can't go to Michigan games or cheer for Michigan?

Phildo
PM 361 times I'll cheer for ANY team against Michigan State.

please re-read my post and show me where I equated the QUALITY of the educational system to it's number of D1 teams.

I merely said that it's easy for y'all to preach "wisconsin love" because Wisconsin has no major instate rival. It's also easy to say you root for all the Wisconsin teams as the majority of the schools fall under the UW system. Pretty similar to Nebraska, where the U has branches in different cities but only one flagship institution.

In comparison, Texas has 3 major educational systems, Texas A&M, UT and the Texas State System. Aggies like myself don't feel the need to bash on the 'lower' branches of our system or the UT system, as A&M and UT are the 2 flagship institutions in the state. They are our equals, but also our RIVALS.

If you put aside your dislike for my politics and actually read and comprehend this post, you will see that you took my last post completely out of context. Thanks for playing though.
