Our daily countdown to the return of Texas football continues with yet another reason to love the fall in Austin.

Your fun fact for the day: Nebraska hasn't defeated the Longhorns in Lincoln since 1933.

we find interesting way to win in Lincoln...
that Vasher interception at the goal line in 2002 in the classic "let's go for the endzone on 3rd down and if we don't get it kick a field goal" move.
and then the terrence nunn fumble caused by aaron ross last year as he was diving for the first down that would have ended the game, followed by the ryan bailey kick...
good stuff.

that's a pretty interesting stat. I'm assuming that means that nebraska has most of it's wins against texas in austin. Which is very weird...interesting

not really...
Texas has only lost to Nebraska 4 times ever: in Lincoln in 1933, at home in 1960, at the cotton bowl in 1973, and at the Big 12 championship in 1999. Of Texas' 7 wins against Nebraska, 4 have come in Lincoln, 2 in Austin and 1 in the 1996 Big 12 championship game.
4-1 in Lincoln
2-1 in Austin
1-1 in Big 12 championship
0-1 in bowl games

Overall record...?
Anyone know what our overall record against Nebraska is? I don't have the ESPN College Football Encylopedia with me at work.

I'm guessing the banned supplements contained Ephedra.

Interesting question
I always sort of assumed that even Aggies aren't dumb enough to ever root for OU. Then again, it's probably a poor idea to underestimate the Aggie propensity for mind-boggling idiocy...

O who?
I'd say ags root for whoever to win thats in their favor. Sure we hate ut the most, but if ut winning helps our chances, we'll probably root for them. but really, we don't root for anyone in that game. we don't really care.

Just because it's too easy
How does anyone else winning any game help the ags? Don't you have to win games to be in a position to care?

Yes..
But did you know that going into the Texas/OU game? Since it is so early in the season it is difficult to tell who would benefit you, so then who do you root for?
