Yeah it was cool to check out all the behind the scenes stuff, and to hear all the stats.

The only bad thing was that, as you can see, the turf wasnt down. They were preparing for a concert or something.

 

Ouch.... I was actually at that TX game last year.... It hurt (although the game I was at in 2003 makes up for it). I actually wish we could get TX at home this year, but we bailed on the TX game to pick up the A&M game here.

Oh, and I'll add one other thing about that TX game.... I have been to the 2 Ark games in Austin (2003 and 2008), and I have to say the games and the crowds are probably the weakest of any college game I have been to. The tailgating and outside-the-game activities were good, but the whole fan experience inside Royal stadium sucks compared to the SEC (or even old SWC games I went to). I don't know if it was the fans, the stadium, or the fact that both games were a little painful (Ark stomped the crap out of #4 TX is 03, and TX returned the favor last year). Maybe I need to go to another game, but I give a big thumbs down to the Royal stadium experience.....

Actually Ark should be much improved. They return every decent starter they had, and got a new (much better) QB. They should be really explosive on offense (one of the best in the country). They are loaded at WR and RB, and have a good line. Ryan Mallett is their QB; he transferred from Michigan when Rich R. came on, but he started for half his true freshman season at UM before transferring. Their defense will be a big question mark, and they play a tough road schedule (LSU, Alabama, Florida, and Ole Miss on the road). We'll see, but I think they can go 8-4 or 9-3. For Ark that is pretty good.... Also, B. Petrino's teams always make a big jump his second year. I know everybody hates him, but the dude can coach some offense.

 

wow. great pics... and for the eagle fan... it might be dangerous for you to enter a cowboys stadium... i suggest not wearing an eagles jersey for safety reasons... haha

 

Ahhh... I got mad-**** talking friend that is a die-hard Redskins fan, and he has gone to the last few games (both Redskin wins), and made it out alive.... barely (and once with a police escort).

 

Though we're rather rough on the Redskins and Eagles fans, I've heard that the Eagles fans in Philly are FAR more vicious to Cowboys fans.

 

Eagles got Vick... This year is going to be VERY interesting..

 

didn't know that... and agreed... quite interesting
