I swear, a stranger watching the Jumbotron at the games would think we're all attending the University of Horns Down. How about showing a little support for YOUR school instead of proving your obsession with someone else's?


Then should we start singing the Spirit of Aggieland 4 times a game instead of the Aggie War Hymn? One is pro A&M and the other is anti tu. How are we supporting our school when singing goodbye to texas university?

For the record, I love the Aggie War Hymn. I just get a kick out seeing horns down too.


Does ANYONE know the real lyrics to Texas Fight? Not the version of it we sing.

The history of Texas Fight, from its composer.

From the website:

"I wrote 'Texas Fight' ... in an attempt to counteract the songs and yells of the Texas Aggies, which were not too complimentary to our Student Body and some of which tended to ridicule 'The Eyes of Texas'.

I love that he refers to us as Texas Aggies.

To be honest, this is one of several examples where A&M did something first, then tu follows suit.

I love it. And I hope esipn keeps complaining about it. Just about every school in the nation uses it because they hate tu.


It's gone universal now. Everybody does it. Everyone.

Poor tea sips.

Nope. They may SAY that to spin it, however

15 yard penalty says otherwise

Lawsuit against Aggieland Outfitters regarding Saw'em Off shirts says otherwise

Again, I challenge you to provide screen shots from this coming weekend's games of horns down. I'll open it up to games from the last several weeks to give you plenty to choose from in which horns down can be demonstrated as "universal". The caveat is that it's a game in which the longhorns were NOT playing.

For the record, Aggieland Outfitters prevailed. It's a great story. Ask Fadi to tell it sometime.

And if you think that'll be a penalty in the SEC, think again.

Yeah I remember that AO came out on top. They just had to make a minor change on the logo. Good for them.

And I hope the SEC doesn't give in to that penalty nonsense.

Obviously sips DON'T love it. So I say keep making shirts and doing horns down. We only have one rival. Treat them like one.

So much of today's new Army would have been yesterday's Sam Houston State and SFA students. I guess that's what 70k did for us.

Go do your horns down kiddies.

Well. 8 quarters and an overtime in this weekend (including the sips CCG) and nary a single horns down.

Which is shocking because everybody does it. Everyone.

All I've seen so far is a bunch of purple people doing their little two finger frog thing. Imagine that. Doing something to support your own school.

Strangely enough I DID see one Utah player give a thumbs down last night. Yet for some weird reason it didn't piss me off or bother me.

Will we see horns down in today's SEC Championship?

Yes, then we storm the field to piss off the sticks in the mud.

That's a negative, ghost rider. But stay tuned. It's bound to happen here in the next few minutes in the ACC or B1G games.

Because everyone does it.

Good lord y'all are dumb. I've seen it several times from other schools that weren't playing the Austin idiots. Sorry facts hurt you so much but y'all are dead ass wrong. Not today but all throughout the year… yes

B. S.

You are more than welcome to offer up proof.

The only times the horns down are shown by fans in games the sips arent playing in are from Aggies (and maybe Oklahoma or Arkansas).
Why?
Because some Aggies can't keep calling their ex girlfriend at 2 am in the rain outside the bar. It's a bad look and one that only solicits chuckles from sips when they see it.
