PB, your countdown clock is an hour slow.

I tuned in to 98.1 for the pregame and they led with a rousing version of Wabash Cannonball and I could see txtwtr7 dancing, at least in my mind’s eye. Damn good start.

You sure about that?

Countdown clock looks right on to me. 1 hour 13 minutes to kickoff…

How odd

It’s correct for me, with 20 minutes to KO.

No idea; maybe some bug in the code. I’ll look into it… later.

Now: BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!! HIT! HARD HAT HELMET KILL KINDLE RABIES DEATH!!!! WOOOOOOO!!!

Not really. I'm going to listen, also.

Nope.

It’ll be a BOOM MOTHER FUCKER! hit on Rusty Smith, leading to a fumble and returned TD.

Strangely enough, I've been thinking that, too.

I was seeing one of those puny out passes and a double hit on the receiver, with the ball going into the air and one of the DBs hustling it in. A great Boom Motherfucker and a general Fuck you, welcome to Texas.

So

I just ordered the game. I freaking hate PPV. I’m unable to watch the pre-game activities because TW’s digital guide won’t let me switch to the game until it “starts”, because of the guide’s schedules.

Lame.

Radio says they're showing VY video stuff now.

{I’m hearing a lot of thunder right now so I may have to shut down at any time.}

Vince is holding aloft his jersey right

VY:
Hey Longhorns. First of all I want to thank God and to thank my coach Coach Brown for coming to get me in Houston and bringing me to Austin. I want to thank Coach Roy and the UT band.

I want to say y’all’s love…the way you carry yourself across the nation…I’m going to keep loving UT until I die.

(I may have missed a few words and phrases but this is the gist.)

I'm far from an astute football mind,

but it looks to me like we are getting a good upfield rush. Smith is too good to hang on to the ball for very long. Multiple guys getting near him.
