TEXAS v OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY...1 v 2

Tomorrow, we will see what has to be the biggest game Austin, has hosted in many years. Ohio State comes to town. Actually, I think about 30,000 of them. They only have tickets for 5,000 to see the game in person. They have rented the Erwin Center for the weekend. They will watch a big screen TV and be very sad when we beat them.

I have a prediction. Texas will win 35 – 21. I will either look wonderful..or not so wonderful tomorrow night about 10:30. I think Texas will win. We are at home. We have a great defense, and we have a wonderful Offense. Our Quarterback is an unknown to most, but we have seen a young man who is a coach’s son, mature, and seem ready for the Big Time! He is from a little town that has, um..maybe 700 people. Our stadium will seat 10x that many! It will be a wonderful evening, I am sure. I think football is so much fun. Fall used to be my most “unfavorite” time of the year. School would start, and that meant summer was over, and I really didn’t like it much.

As I have gotten older, and am not going to any classes, Fall means FOOTBALL! The University of Texas is the greatest place to go, and the greatest team to cheer for. We are National Champions, until next January…and believe me, we feel it.

I went to a meeting over at the University this morning, and walking from my parking place to Belmont Hall, I could feel a buz in the air! After the meeting was over, and as I was walking to my car, I could feel the electricity. Tomorrow will be absolutely exciting!

Well, here’s to the Horns. May they make us proud. Here’s to the fans, let’s show our class tomorrow! Hook ‘em Horns, \m/ \m/ Hook ‘em!

P. S. It is Sunday morning, and we sure got whipped up on last night. Ohio State is good, and we were not playing like we can. I was disappointed, of course, but we will get better. I hope all the distractions this past week had something to do with that, as I would hate to think of the rest of the season with a "no pass" defense. Texas Tech is probably salivating at this point, and Nebraska, also. We will do fine..we have to forget last year, and get focused on our schedule. It is a tough one..but heck, "We are Texas", and let the games begin. Congratulations to Ohio State, and their fans. I know this is sweet after what happened at their campus last year. So...with that...win the rest of the games, and perhaps we will meet again, soon!!!!!! Hook 'em Horns!
