    Looks like The Big Guy won't be making the trip to Lawrence.

    Then I suggest we implement a policy that WE do not allow stupid made up mascots.

    Long road trip in a trailer for a bovine anyway.

    When Bevo XV heard the news, probably plopped out a big, wet patty in response and said "Meh" or is it "Moo"?

    Rested, yes. Ready, yes. We definitely don't want Bevo tanned, though :p

    Yeah, like warning an incorrigible brat: "I'm gonna tan your hide!" would take on quite a different meaning if shouted out to a steer. Yikes.

    In the storied history of Longhorned bovines, trips to Kansas have been best avoided.

    I, for one, am not crazy about our prized Longhorn being trailered up 35 through the middle of the Dist Bowl. I fear or his safety.

    My brother was a silver spur in the 90's. Bevo would be pissed after long roadtrips I hear. He took a swipe at me on the field before the 95' Baylor game and that was at home! I think they have made changes now. Back then they probably did not tranquilize him as much and you could walk right up to him if you had a field pass. I forget that Bevo's full name, it was Gentlemen something. He was pretty lit though! I believe he had the widest spread of all the past Bevo's, he was magnificent. Just don't stand to close, especially at a road game!

    I don't recall seeing Bevo at *any* of the Oklahoma State games when you guys played us in Stillwater.... including this year. Hell, we don't have room on the sidelines, barely enough for our players and Bullet. So, when has Bevo been on the sidelines in Stillwater??

    I don't believe Bevo has ever made an appearance in Stillwater because of safety concerns and lack of space. Unless I'm mistaken, he is subject to the 28 hour rule adopted in the 1870s.

    So why is this being made an issue with KU? The comment that the Bevo twitter page made of "Only two times in 73 years" seems a bit off unless they are talking ONLY the Thanksgiving week game?

    The article indeed says 73 years on Thanksgiving weekend because a couple of times we played aTm on Friday.

    If, however, Fenves discovers that the world's largest Confederate Flag is owned by the KU Phi Psi chapter, he may boycott the game.

    so you pooped on my answer?
    When it clearly said,"Bevo will miss the action for a Thanksgiving week game for just the second time in 73 years, according to the school.
    really?

    I did because you're being an ***. I simply asked a question. I guess I skipped reading comp when getting my masters degree.

    Ok ryno
    I will apologize for thinking it was pretty clear in the original link. Since you have a Masters you probably did do ok with reading and maybe there was something in the link that was confusing.

    Welcome to the board.

    Careful.

    Last year before the Maryland game I posted about the Twerps helmets with a link to what I thought was an informative article about the history of the Maryland flag, related to the Confederacy, and that if Fenves would find out he'd maybe ask Maryland to change their helmets if they were going to play Texas.

    And then I had the audacity to joke that Fenves well probably take down the flags around DKRTMS because of one of the Six Flags of Texas.

    And a poster jumped all over my **** saying to take it to the West Mall.

    A couple of weeks later Fenves ordered the DKRTMS flags taken down.

    Hook 'em.

    P.S., how much more "On the Field" could you be with a post than talking about an opponent's helmets and flags flown during the game?

    Remember the offseason and how bad we want some Texas football?

    Kansas on T-day is still Texas football. I’ll take it. But I get your point.

    I'm with you on that D. It's a real struggle accepting the end of the season I waited so long to start. Like someone said in a recent thread, I love every minute of every second of every game.

    Hookem :hookem::yippee:

    For the life of me, I can't recall when I've been amped up to watch a Texas-KU football game.

    No national title on the line, but conference title angle implications, Sam's injury saga, KU's lame duck coach (or is that lame jayhawk?), chance to get win number 9 for the season that could presage a bowl win to get to 10 wins (can't believe I just typed 10 wins).

    Oh, and for the rest of the day, a 3:15 #9 UCF at the USF fightin' Charlies, a 3 or 5:30 tip Texas men's BB v. either Meatchicken State or UCLA in Las Vegas, and then really kicking back at 7:00 p.m. kickoff, flipping the TV remote back and forth:

    #6 OU v. #13 WVU

    #16 UDub v. #8 Wazzu, the PIRATE!!

    With all those beers during the day, following up on the overdose of L-tryptophan infused turkey (I know, a myth) should sleep like a baby Friday night.

    To get up Saturday for Meatchicken v. tOSU and Domers v. Trojans.

    Gotta love college sports this time of year.

    Hook 'em

    (edited to correct Friday BB Horns followup on Thanksgiving Day game v. UNC)

    Have Bevo declared our official support mammal
    Application can be made online
    Then just put him on a SWA flight to Lawrence (which are nothing but cattle cars in the sky anyway. I have even been known to 'moo' while boarding)

    Fenves is the worst president in the history of this school and it should be discussed on all forums.

    The giant Six Flags of Texas at DKR was the coolest unique feature our stadium had. Then they became six tiny flags. Now they are gone completely and the DJ tries his best to drown out the band and kill any atmosphere the stadium has.
