kewp80 Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Texas Tech will be wearing the 2014 version of their Lone Star Pride uniforms tomorrow against UT,I think I'm in the minority but I loved the original Maryland state pride uniforms with the crash dummy helmets. That being said I think state pride unis should start and end with Maryland. The state flag is part of the schools branding and it works.This? This is just simultaneously butchering the look of both the Texas flag and techs nice regular uniforms. Especially when this is the third school people think of when they think Texas (and is basically south Oklahoma). Just unnecessary from UA.Id say 4 or 5TexasTexas A&MBaylorTCUI have to admit when I think of Texas teams I generally think of them in this order: Texas A&M Texas Texas Tech Houston TCU BaylorTexas A&M over Texas? Really? I mean maybe in the past couple years, when it comes to football, but when I think of universities in the state of Texas the number one has always been the Longhorns. I can see why you put Houston over TCU and Baylor though. Historically they have been in the spotlight more when it comes to their athletics, but I feel that is quickly changing with TCU now in high prominence being successful in the Big 12 and all, Baylor is rising up there too.Quite honestly when I think of Lubbock the first thing I think of is Buddy Holly.

I believe nuordr is a UKentucky guy so I can see how he would think of A&M first since they now share a conference with UK. Ever since A&M left the Big 12 I have found myself focusing more on the SEC West than the other Texas schools. Houston always felt more like a SEC city than Big 12 anyways.

pcgd Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 I usually root for A&M over the other Texas schools and I'll even admit in terms of relavance its Texas first (even at their worst), then A&M, then the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DS729 Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Texas schools in terms of popularity outside of that region is probably something like this:1. Texas(a very large gap)2. A&M3. Tech4. TCU5. Baylor6. Houston...the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cajunaggie08 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 No doubt. There is a reason ESPN and Texas created the Longhorn Network (which ushered the collapse of the Big 12 in its original form.) They're one of the few national powers in what is the country's most regionalized sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4_tattoos Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Is anybody else watching the Cincinnati at Tulane game on ESPN2? Tulane's turf is awful. Alternating every five yards between a lush, almost Kelly green and brownish green. Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hailstateunis Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Replicas of this year's Egg Bowl jerseys have been leaked. I'm a bit disappointed; I was hoping we wouldn't do this this year, given our national success. But I guess the decision was made before the season. http://www.hailstateunis.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not green and brown I wonder if Oregon did their turf like their "Forest" basketball court what that would look like. Shades of Green instead of wood like BB.

Just unnecessary from UA.Id say 4 or 5TexasTexas A&MBaylorTCUI have to admit when I think of Texas teams I generally think of them in this order: Texas A&M Texas Texas Tech Houston TCU BaylorThat's a fluid concept though. A few years ago it was Horns first, Aggies second.Originally, when the Big 8 expanded by adding 4 former SWC teams, the first three spots were unquestioned - and given to the three "best" Texas teams - UT, A&M and Tech. The fourth spot was being considered for SMU, Houston, TCU and Baylor somewhat equally, but Texas' Lieutenant Governor was a Baylor alum and made a big stink about it, so the Bears got it.With Arkansas having defected from the SWC a few years before for the SEC, I always wondered what the Big 12 could have looked like with Arkansas as a member. The Hogs could have preserved their old SWC rivalry with A&M (although they have it again now in the SEC) and their presence could have anchored the South Division enough to possibly allow Oklahoma to flip to the North Division. While no conference will ever maintain a perfect balance between divisions, I have to wonder if preserving the Oklahoma-Nebraska rivalry might have shaped things differently.On a personal level I can't complain because I really do feel like my team fits well into the Big Ten, but I wonder if the Big 12 might not have become even more dominant. Oh well, revisionist history.so something similar toNorth:NebraskaOklahomaOklahoma StateKansasKansas StateMizzouSouth:TexasTexas A&MTexas TechArkansasBaylorTCU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lahaye7 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 A&M looks pretty darn good. ULM in all white, even Penn State thinks they look bland. I am sore,wounded, but not slainI will lay down and bleed a whileAnd then rise up to fight again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 UConn is wearing white facemasks with the white helmets. Is this new? Usually it's navy masks with the white helmets, right?Iowa has a camo logo on one side, and no logo on the left side (due to military appreciation probably). They look more like the Steelers than normal. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
