Will Texas vs. Texas Tech be the gameday site?

Just wondering if it will be. I'm going down for the game, and was just curious what you guys thought.

Oklahoma St. Vs. Georgia

Why not OSU vs. Georgia for the first week?

Much better than Bama v. Va Tech

by aorist9 on Jul 24, 2009 4:55 PM CDT up reply actions  

Bama and VA tech will be top 10 vs top 10, not top 20 vs top 20

by MJY6087 on Jul 24, 2009 5:36 PM CDT up reply actions  

You really think so?

Bama is a better draw than Georgia. And VaTech ended their year winning a BCS bowl while OK. State got plastered against Oregon.

I think OK st vs Georgia is a better game too, but Bama and VA tech is just a matchup of higher ranked teams

by MJY6087 on Jul 24, 2009 10:06 PM CDT up reply actions  

agree

I have a feeling that OSU will choke again though under the national spot-light!

by Longhorns84 on Jul 24, 2009 10:40 PM CDT up reply actions  

Easy trigger...

At the 3 offensive positions, they may be the best in the country…

Robinson
Hunter
Bryant

That is potentially 3 first round picks starting together. I wish the Horns had Hunter and Bryant.

I am missing what you mean with 3=22...

I believe what Vy means

is that they may have 3 talented players at the skill positions, but they still need 19 more to go along with them.

by NeTexHorn on Jul 26, 2009 8:48 PM CDT up reply actions  

Im not so sure about that. They have some ?s on Defense, but I think this OK St squad can pull out a win against UGA, especially at home. Dont forget. They played us down to the wire last year

by MJY6087 on Jul 25, 2009 3:34 PM CDT up reply actions  

I suppose...

Not sure why it matters though. This seems to have sparked discussion, isn’t that what fanposts are for?

Plus, it’s a slow offseason.

by Longhorn11 on Jul 24, 2009 6:04 PM CDT up reply actions  

This is just one of those things

that once the school year (and mostly football season) rolls around gets really frustrating. When there are 23 Fan Posts a day and three forths of them are like this it drives us crazy.

Fan Shots or comments to a larger post are designed for quick questions like this. Fan Posts are generally used to give larger amounts of information/opinions.

If you had written 100 words about the possibility of gameday coming and talked about the other games that day that they might have to pass on, that would have been a good read and made this a good post, instead of just an interesting question.

If Gameday comes to Austin then

It’s probably because there’s nothing else better out there. I don’t think Tech will be terrible, but they did lose a few players and they’re coming to Austin. Their best hope is if they catch us unprepared early in the season, but the early game arguably affects them more than it affects us, since they’re breaking in a new QB.

REVENGE

its a big story line for ESPN, and its a pretty big conference game for September. I’m not sure what other games are on this week, but I doubt there is anything with the same storylines.

by Longhorns84 on Jul 24, 2009 10:42 PM CDT up reply actions  

The crowd that day in Austin will be ballistic

I haven’t wanted to put the hurt on a team so bad since this:

And I wouldn’t mind if the score was similar.

by notsofst on Jul 24, 2009 3:56 PM CDT reply actions  

Wow.

10:13 left in the second quarter and we’re up 42-0.

Disgusting.

by pleaseplaykindle on Jul 24, 2009 5:19 PM CDT up reply actions  

That game

Was arguably a larger dismantling than the famous Colorado thumping in the Big 12 championship game. 52-0 at the half? And the crowd was mad we kicked the field goal except score another TD to go up 56-0.

by TheElusiveShadow on Jul 27, 2009 12:33 PM CDT up reply actions  

Considering this game was moved so ESPN would have something to be excited about. Chances are it’ll be the best game on.

One might even argue that we don’t know what teams will become surprises. Unfortunately, by this point in the season no one will.

by Longhorn@Berkeley on Jul 24, 2009 4:15 PM CDT reply actions  

Would we have been able to pick up Wiscosin this year if we hadn’t moved TTech to that weekend? I notice that is the weekend they play Wofford.

by UT_BKC on Jul 24, 2009 4:58 PM CDT reply actions  

No, we switched UCF and TT dates I believe

by MJY6087 on Jul 24, 2009 5:36 PM CDT up reply actions  

tech game

the atmosphere at 7pm september 17th will be incredible. too bad we will have to
listen to brent musburger. maybe he’ll have a sore throat that day.
100,000 plus seeking revenge like never before and a night game. there will be carnage!! i will be sober so as not to miss 1 play going to the restroom!!!lol

52-10

ut1ou2 for texas-ou weekend

by ut1ou2 on Jul 24, 2009 7:08 PM CDT reply actions  

BS

Tech won’t score close to 10

by SuperBentley on Jul 25, 2009 9:13 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions  

Youre right. Im gonna guess than they score about 21-28 ponts and we put up 45-52 points

by MJY6087 on Jul 25, 2009 10:40 PM CDT up reply actions  

It should be the gameday site

As mentioned many times before, they reshuffled the season to make it primetime, so Gameday should be there. If it’s not here, then I wasted 30 minutes of my life making my “REVENGE lives here” sign to hoist up at gameday.

Another possibility

Tennessee plays at Florida on the 19th also. With all the Lane Kiffen – Urban Meyer smack talk, it may be at the swamp.

by Rosey on Jul 27, 2009 11:06 AM CDT reply actions  

Wow, that is a tossup

But with the SEC/ESPN love-fest, I would bet on Tenn vs Florida.

I imagine that if Gameday is in Austin that weekend

the crew will make every reference possible to the Flo-Tenn game
