Friday, October 10, 2014 – Hotty Toddy and BTHO Ole Miss!
BTHO Ole Miss!!! The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down was sung by whom? Please forgive me, Mr. Faulkner. As I Lay Dying, I will not support the Ole Miss Rebels against the Fightin’ Texas Aggies. It is a series of firsts for the Saturday evening, early morning game. It is the first time Ole Miss has visited Kyle Field since the Aggies joined the SEC. It is a great time to pay a visit, because it is the first time the Aggies have played a ranked Rebel team. It is the first sell-out of Kyle Field since the remodel. The expectations are for a 106,000 attendance. This assumes there is no lightening, which could delay kickoff, making every one go home or to the bars and cause this prime-time televised game to run way past my bed time. It will also be a first for the new grass on the Aggie Field. Yes, we are an agricultural school, but the grass on the field just did not hold up. During the Rice game large holes were created when players made a cut, thus creating very large and dangerous divots. During the away games, the field was replaced with, new, better, greener grass for $300,000. Let’s hope that keeps the grounds crews from running on the field to repair it.
The Bars of Northgate are scheduled to open as early as 10:00 AM tomorrow. Well Hotty Toddy. I read where Hotty Toddy is the equivalent of Howdy.
Are You Ready?
Hell Yeah! Damn Right!
Hotty Toddy, Gosh Almighty,
Who The Hell Are We? Hey!
Flim Flam, Bim Bam
Ole Miss By Damn!
Well, Hotty Toddy yourself. Howdy! And Gig ‘Em Aggies. Bleacher Report picks the Aggies by four. I believe that would be The Twelfth Man phenomena. Speaking of Bleacher Report, did you really pick OU to win by only a touchdown against Texas? For the possible Big 12 Title, you picked Baylor, but “Bearly.” Let’s hope it is not raining at 2:30 for kickoff in Waco. Three of you picked Auburn over Mississippi State. Of course you are the same bunch of guessers who picked Alabama over Ole Miss last weekend.
Joan Baez (and others) sang The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down. Let’s hope the Aggies can have such a night. BTHO Ole Miss!!!
And a passing final note. Harley Clark, the state judge and former UT cheerleader credited with creating the “Hook ‘em Horns!” hand signal died. It’s just another Corps Trip. You can march in behind The Band, Judge Clark.
Here's What I'm Thinking
