Open GameDay Thread: Texas vs Alabama
Kickoff at 10:00 p.m. CT. Texas, represented by BON'er Chase Dunegan, versus Alabama, represented by some dude who owns world records in video games. Playing NCAA Football 2009 on its release day, courtesy of Bush League TV.
I'm just thrilled that we're at a point where we're gonna have embeddable live video of this thing. A live Open (Video)GameDay Thread.

TEXAS 28 ALABAMA 7
I hadn't quite realized how desperate for football I was until I watched this entire game, start to finish, living and dying with each play.
Great job, Chase... Repping UT and BON exceptionally well... Enjoyed it immensely.
