It was announced today. The reasoning doesn't make sense but whatever. Show up before sunrise and hang around for 3 hours? Before the game even starts? So you can hold up a sign? Whatever dude.

But the gameday guys are like rock stars. Whenever they're in town there's always a Desmond Howard sighting, a Herbstreit sighting, my goodness there's even a Fowler sighting hard is that is for me to believe. You know ESPN started in 1979 but in 1994 gameday premiered and that is what really put them on the map and now it's got to be their cash cow. I just don't understand the hype around it. I mean IA and PS fans went on Twitter and we're really upset that gameday is not going there. Seriously.

I said earlier that I like it when our game is on at 9am CA time. The game ends it's only 12:30 and I can get on with the rest of the day. Even the night games are over by 8.

But @outhereincali is not going to get up at 5am to shower, shave, put on my Justin Tucker jersey ( I really do have one and it was only $7), UT cap and watch anything for 3 hours before the game even starts. Nope not me. And definitely not at 6am. Since it's us there might be a couple of feature stories about our guys. But inevitably they have another SEC wives feature part 443. But hey starting next year Sarkisian and Riley's wife and well know all about them. Things like who their favorite designers are, their favorite tv shows, olive garden vs buca del beppo,and tell us what their dream car is. I've actually seen a couple shows where SEC wives actually talk about these things. But hey that's really important to success on the field. Can you imagine what would happen if we found out Sarkisian's wife drives a Jaguar? Goodbye nc that's what.

And if Fowler does the game.... oh well. Maybe he'll get lockjaw right before the game and Holly Rowe will have to do the game. Heck I'd rather have Hannibal Lecter doing the play by play.

You know he'd be great motivator for our ol line this week. I can see him looking Kerstetter, Okafor, Brewer, and Jones in the eye and saying something like "I used to coach lineman who couldn't block, forgot their assignments, got called for penalties, and give up sacks. I ate their liver's and served it with fava beans and nice Chianti."

You know they'd play the best game of their life if that happened. Why not try? I mean they've been here from 4 to 6 years. Nothing else seems to work.

I hope at least some of you guys have a sense of humor.

You'll be up at 5. You'll be a half a cup into your coffee by 5:10. You'll be taking your morning glory by 5:20. You'll be in the shower by 5:35. You'll be out of the shower by 5:40. You'll be dried off and shaved by 5:47. You'll be wearing your stained $7 Justin Tucker jersey and UT cap and sitting on your couch by 5:55. You'll piss and moan for 5 more minutes because damnit, you could have SLEPT for 5 more minutes. (Fvcking alarm clock)
At 6am Reese Davis will make his annoying as fvck announcement that he always makes about where they are and how great the local food is here (bbq, lobster rolls, steaks, bratwurst, crab cakes, matzo ball soup, gumbo-- depending on the region) he'll say something stupid about Big Tex, Fletcher's corn dogs, some form of fried food (pickles, oreos, banana pudding, funnel cake probably). They'll do a drone pan over of the crowd at game day and then the fairgrounds themselves so you can see all the people. They will cut away just before you can see outside the fairgrounds as all the section 8 housing surrounding it starts to come into view-- then Big and Rich will start singing their stupid ass, tired old song again-- Cowboy Troy will remind you that he too went to Texas- and that they're "coming to your city" even though they won't actually BE in Dallas-- though Troy might make an appearance, since he did grow up "slumming" it at nearby Dallas Skyline HS- a scant 2 miles due east of the Cotton bowl. (His quote, not mine)

By the time 11:45 rolls around, either Brian Bozworth or our own minister of culture will be ferried into Dallas Executive Airfield from either OKC or Austin, on some crappy King Air 350i and then shuttled up 35 to Fair Park-- where they'll do their best "alright, alright, alright" or "the BOZ, sherrif of Fansville" impersonation, and we'll have to suffer through their egos and picks.

Then, stroke addled Lee Corso will yet again fumble his way through his picks and NOT SO FAST everyone that picks Texas, because he's "goin' with OU baby!! Gimme that hat and gun!"
And then Lee pops off and round in the air as the toothless sod theives fall to their knees to service Corso in an act of incisor-less mouth love.

Camera shot will fade away and you'll flip over to ABC.

Pretty much sums it up for you.

Maybe you should sleep in after all.

I'm thinking they'll have Barry Switzer make an appearance on the pregame but could be wrong. You are pretty spot on.

Hey @clob94 my Justin Tucker jersey had no stains. He's a kicker for goodness sakes kickers don't make tackles. And the jersey is in good shape. I bought it at Deseret which is a Mormon version of goodwill. I bought it last year.

And then there's all that advertising. Do they still walk on a stage sponsored by Home Depot? How many advertisers are on there now HD can't be the only ones.

And David Pollack reminds me of Kyrsten Sinema he'll answer a question or make statement that will last 5 minutes and not say anything at all. Desmond Howard talks cool but he's not all that. Rece Davis is an insufferable SEC cheerleader? And why do they all have to be from the Big X or SEC? Corso should have retired a long time ago.
 
Somebody kick Herbstreit in the teeth.
I can deal with Herbstreit at least he can talk football and generally does a good job of explaining his position. It’s that slap nutz partner of his that I cannot stand. He’s pretty disrectful during a broadcast with his backhanded jokes about coaches, players etc. I’ve just never gotten on board with Fowler. Oh what the heck….”F*^kFowler too!

I will not be up that early. Outside of hunting or fishing it’s a virtual impossibility for me to awake that early. I’ll be up by 8:30, shit, shower, shave and off to the game by 9:00. Will be in my seats by 10:00 (following an early morning Fletchers corn dog). Maybe see a few of you clowns there. Hook ‘em.

In your pregame itinerary above are you saying that you wake up by 8:30, take a shit THEN get out of bed? If so, I like your style

F*** Fowler? Belldozer there is hope for you after all 😅. Those annoying square suits he wears. I can think of at least 4 play by play guys better than Fowler.

Fowler is ESPN's chosen tennis guy. I've heard him talk over John McEnroe, and state that "If Nadal was smart...." Like Chris Fowler was smart. So annoying.
 
I just thought of the prefect person to represent the horns on gameday. Remember that coed who gave the finger at the end of the game? Her. Find her and get her to talk about the game and make the predictions. She's probably some sorority girl. Ask if she'd like to be on 📺.

And now that I think about it see if there's a tri delt at OK who'd like to be on tv. Sorority girls aren't known for liking fb they just want marry one if he gets drafted.

It's got to be better Matthew or Toby right?
