Big thanks to West Virginia for making sure none of our sports go winless in their first big 12 season. We appreciate ya!

Just got back from the game and WOW THAT WAS AWESOME!!!


Sent from The Warp via The Ruinous Powers of Chaos!

Still in the parking lot, our attendance sucks but we got the first win over a hateful 8 member.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't know how i feel about this but I'll take a win any day lol

What a ******* game! That was a blast.

and of course a former Cowboy makes the play of the game....

we should be due royalties...

what an exciting 4th quarter of college football

it was also fun watching Holgy go from a hari-kari foot dragging walk to strutting like a rooster in the span of 12 seconds

That was worth staying up for.

So. More chaos. Does anyone not named Oklahoma or Texas finish above .500 in league play?

Congrats Houston - amazing finish.

Whew!!!

I haven't felt this good after a COOG win since... UH stormed back to beat Pitt in the 2015 Armed Forces bowl!

I mean the 2016 Peach Bowl was awesome, but we led wire to wire in that game. Snatching victory from the jaws of defeat?? Nothing comes close to that!

COOGS are learning how to win in the XII! The first "newbie" XII team to beat one of the H8ful8 XII member this season!

I'll NEVER wish the team to do bad, no matter who's the coach, no matter what circumstances, and I'll celebrate every win, especially in person if I can!

GO COOGS!!

When will players learn to stop being selfish? The celebration penalty was the difference.

Celebrate once the final whistle blow.

what's with all the hatefuleight comments recently?

I haven't seen anybody make hateful comments about any of the freshman 4.

I think the Kansas schools probably will

Meant no disrespect, I got the feeling that the remaining 8 XII teams took on that nickname as a badge of honor and pride.

But it's been bandied about in NUMEROUS online message boards, so thats where I got it from.

No offense intended, but just for future reference, what do y'all prefer to be called then? The Warm Leftovers? LOL j/k!

GO COOGS!!!!

Edit: - From CBS Article dated Aug 2021: Big 12 vs the world

Quote:With the news of the week -- alliance formation, Pac-12 standing pat -- there may some certainty. With no additional movement coming at the top, the Big 12 suddenly has expansion leverage over Group of Five conferences. That means the eight remaining schools, nicknamed "The Hateful Eight", just might stay together after all.

Exactly. WVU isn’t good enough to play dumb and win. Congrats to all you Houston fans on your first Big 12 win. It was a memorable one, unfortunately.

The B12 would do, which would also be inclusive of you folks and the to be newly minted freshman 4. (4 corners)

I mean, that term is totally disrespectful - band of brothers if you must designate the original 8 for clarity purposes.

Hosts might be nice. Yeah, I like hosts.

Meh... "Hosts" makes it sound like us newbies are only here temporarily. And btw, you may have noticed I don't care if your refer to us as "newbies" so I think it's fair you can reciprocate and not get so ruffled at the term Hateful 8, as I showed, the media has labeled y'all that since 2021.

But if you insist, I have no problem calling y'all the Bandaid Brothers. or something like that...

hehehe

newbie is a factual term, with no ill-intent. (easier than listing all 4 teams every time). The terms that you're throwing out are hurtful and demeaning.

Show me again where the "media" used that label for the remaining 8, and 2021 would have been before you joined the league, so the reference would have been to the league attitude towards the two turn-coats. (EDIT: I just read the link, that the idiot Dennis Dodd the most spiteful hack in the business - and I was correct it was before the expansion)

Hateful8 makes it sound like it's PERMANENTLY part of the league, when if any hate was shown, it was temporary towards the two sell-outs whom every team in the league had bent over backwards for in appeasements and supplemental funding.

I think you are now using that term out of context, if it was ever actually a frequently used term

Leftovers is a factual term too. You good with that? Does this guy go on every thread to derail it?

Yes

does anyone know the attendance? I cannot find it online. Likely want to keep it a secret.

Next week will be a sellout because TX fans will stage a takeover.
