    Not sure about the Whataburger offerings near each campus, however. I'm thinking not

    How could they fumble (real or not) at the goal line?

    Tech doesn’t stink it up at the end and B XII is perfect, so far.

    Glad to see Iowa State win. They've got a good thing going up there as long as they can hang on to Matt Campbell :hookem:

    Oops. Can’t ever remember that group on the other side of the world.
    Looks like the conference goes 5-3. I think the Bulldog “D” will be a load for even the Sooners. Or is that just wishful thinking?

    Baker, him be sick and him have a fever.

    I’m predicting a Blow U win, if BM is clicking on all cylinders. If GA brings smothering D heat & minimizes BM’s ability to extend plays, then GA probably wins. But, I don’t think GA has seen an O like this. To wit, see Auburn game 1 results. But, I hope Im wrong!!! :ousucks:

    1-3? Now who could you be referring to?
    Oh yeah, that would be the almighty, all powerful sec, sec, sec. If Georgia and Alabama both lose, the loss of suction that espn has on a certain sec body part is going cause an epic implosion.

    regardless Big 12 guaranteed a winning bowl record, which is something we can hang our hats on :smile1:

    Iowa State shut down the vaunted Memphis State offense, ranked #2 in the country. Great job, BUT Memphis was without the architect of that offense, who will be guiding the Aggie offense from here on out.

    Does Herman not have any relationship at all with Jim McIngvale?

    Sabre,

    Memphis State became Universirty of Memphis in 1994. Thus, they are referred to as “Memphis”. But, you’re showing your age!!!:lol:

    It's a "city school". I'll always call it "Memphis State", just like it will always be "North Texas State", "Southwest Texas State". "Texas A&I". et al.

    Re: the game, saw second half. Pleased ISU hung on to win. They had a good scrappy team that upset ou and TCU this season. Glad the Horns beat them before they peaked.

    Congrats to the Clones!

    Worster,

    I have a business partner in Alabama who graduated from SWT. The school called him to ask if he would like to purchase a new diploma with a new school name on it. He asked if he could put any name on it. The person said "yes". He said, "Good, I want mine to say Harvard University".

    Before they became UTEP, the college was Texas School of Mines and later Texas Western.

    Worster,

    A couple for you:

    Alabama Normal School for Women became Auburn

    Florida Normal School for Women became Florida State, thus going from a school for wayward girls to a school for delinquent boys
