    Which is why moving to the SEC in 24 is so important.

    They shouldn't run 20-30 minutes longer than pro games on average. The biggest culprit is the halftime show.

    I don't think anyone with even partial love for the game would be in favor of the clock starting after incomplete passes. That would screw up at least a couple outcomes per weekend.

    I've been kicking this can down the road since at least the 90s, but I don't think the clock should stop on a first down. This isn't high school where the chain gang needs to settle in before play resumes.

    Limit the d*** media time outs! And shorten time allowed for replays - my $.02.

    Texas football fans wanting to see alternate uniforms during the 2023 season will have to keep waiting. PerChip Brown of Horns247,Longhorns athletic director Chris Del Conte said Monday the iconic burnt orange and white hues will stick around for the foreseeable future and there are no plans to add a secondary look at Texas for the time bring.

    "If God wanted multicolored sunsets, He'd have made them purple and green," Del Conte said. "But He didn't. They're burnt orange. ... It's not old. It's not stuffy. It's Texas. It's the best."

    aggy finally getting the respect they’ve worked so hard for all these years. Good to see the well-earned recognition for l’il brother and they’re stick to-itivness to finally break into a Top 10 list. And this was pre-$100M Jimbo, to boot!!

    Me no likey 8 game SEC schedule ... with 12 team playoff coming, give the people what they want, more good games ... Sanky needs to give ESPN max inventory of games for more $$$ ... Tell A&M to shut up ... the November annual SEC cup cake game is an embarrassment to CFB

    Texas could face 8-game SEC schedule with one permanent rival

    The people want 9 conference games. I guess the upside is playing everyone else twice over a 4-year span, so we couldn't complain about only getting Bama or UGA once in a while.

    It seems to me that CdC kind of wants this rotation as well so that we could easily get 3 nonconference games at home every year. We don't have a problem going to Ann Arbor or Columbus, but if we're gonna get three other cupcakes, they need to come to Austin.

    I saw a projected secsecsec schedule showing tceh as our permanent ooc game. Hope it's wrong.

    Just checked tceh's 2025 schedule. We're NOT on it.

    I remember reading how mad Tech Administrators were because CDC stated we could not give them any guarantees. I hope he held firm.

    Looks like Tech went crying to the Governor to force us to play with them.
