Please excuse the Texas Hate Week interruption, but trust me when I say it's for a good cause. Take the survey, let your voice be heard, do the right thing, and all that stuff.
As an incentive to participate, the three SBN sites with the highest percentage of completed surveys, will have a $500 donation to the charity of their choosing made on their behalf by the generous folks at SBN.
So help us out and if for no other reason, do it for the universal truth that can all collectively get behind.
Because Texas sucks! (sure that made no sense, but it's Texas Hate Week baby!)

With video boards like this one providing 3,689 square feet of viewing surface the fan experience has completely changed at college stadiums.
Last week we discussed how advances in technology have changed the way the game of football is officiated and the way coaches prepare. As drastic as that has been on the game it is even more so for the fans who are experiencing it. Crystal clear high definition televisions practically put the view on the field and even the audio is broadcast in such a way that a decent set of surround sound speakers could transform your living room into a extension of the stadium, only with cheaper concessions.

When Oklahoma and Texas met in the Cotton Bowl on October 13th, 1984 the Longhorns were the nation's top ranked team and the Sooners were number three. The result of the game was a 15-15 tie that never should have been. Trailing 15-12 with time winding down the Longhorns had driven the field and were within scoring distance. When Texas Decided to take a shot at the end zone before attempting a field goal Oklahoma's Keith Stanberry clearly intercepted Todd Dodge's tipped pass in the end zone. However, the play wasn't called that way as the Southwest Conference officials calling the game called it an incomplete pass. Texas kicked a field goal and the rest is history, literally.
