Hell, I was on hand for the Texas loss in 2001 (14-3) and I didn't have a care in the world for bragging rights. I was just more disappointed that I finally (even if it was with the band) got to go to a Red River Shootout (when it was still called that) and then my team lost. It sucks, but the experience was still extremely awesome.
Getting to partake in some of the events at the fair was a blast
As far as this year's game goes, I expect our defense to be pretty pissed off. I have absolutely no idea what to expect from the Bad News Bear...er...Longhorns offense.
I think it'll be a good tight game. It could also be a blow out. We'll just have to tune in and watch. I'm just kinda sad that much of the media is just going to pass it off as a boring game now that Texas has a loss coming into it.
