Big 12 Memories

1. isn’t a Big 12 game, and it’s not a positive. Fresno State in 2001. What a terrible, terrible coaching job. After that is the Big 12 Championship game vs. UT. Thanks for handing us the title, Chris Simms. Finally, another negative- I will never forgive Mack Brown for concussing Joel Klatt back into the stone age in the 70-3 game.

This is not done in any specific order

Nebraska: I will always remember in the late 80’s early 90’s how big of a hurdle they were and how good they were. I remember the disappointment when Stewart took us down there in 94 and we lost 24-7. I was 14 and very excited for this game.

I did go to the Nebraska game the year before last. That was fun. Alot of huskers fans in the crowd, but we played pretty hard and had a shot.

62-36 of course. that was a fun game.

Oklahoma: I remember 95 when Schnellenberger was talkin and talkin. We beat them 38-17 and it was never close. I always respected Oklahoma and still do. I also think of the game when they were ranked third a copuple years ago and we beat’em

Iowa State: I think of Iowa state more about basketball. They have had some good teams in both sports. I always liked darren davis. He was a good back. The game last year was enjoyable on our part against them, because we started to have something to play for.

Oklahoma State: I always like Okie State. They had some good teams. Still do. I remember a game where Dwayne Cherrington ran or caught a touchdown with very little time left and we won. This was in the Ricky Rickl era. I don’t remember what year.

Kansas State: When Kansas State started to become a good team I really liked them. I even rooted for them against Nebraska. I didn’t like how I felt they started to act. The whole football started when we got good attitude. No fan base including our are angels. This was just something that rubbed me the wrong way and I am sure we rubbed people the wrong way.

KansasFootball-wise, not alot. I remember that they have had an amazing basketball team. Always a great basketball team that had alot of traveling fans. I went and watched the game against Kansas in boulder where Billups carried us, but we fell short.

Mizzou5th down obviously. I will always remember their old ugly field. They have had some really really good teams. Last year was disappointing. I been have in colombia and I enjoyed it. It seems like a nice town with good people. They have an excellent b-ball team

Texas TechTheir offense. They threw the ball so much that too this day that is the strongest memory that comes up when I think about them. I also like the black and red colors.

aTmI loved Texas A&M before the big XII and I still like them. They were such a strong team had a couple ok years and now look primed to be back. The days when R.C. was there are very memorable and we had some quality football games.

BaylorNot alot about baylor. I think they are an underrated school. I think they have a good chance of continuing to built a good team. I thought last year they were going to do better than they did. They still did well.

Texas couple things. The game Salaam tore them up. Ran for over 300. Both title games. The good one and the bad one. I don’t have anything bad to say about the longhorns. They got what they wanted and who can fault them. They are a big brand and will continue to be a strong force in college football.

Nebraska – the beat down in Boulder, had to be at work that day but went down to the conference room and watched the game, was screaming in the office the whole time.

Oklahoma – I will remember Hawkins one memorable win as a Buffs coach, was shocked and thought we got a great coach and here we go…ohh to be so dissapponted.

Iowa State – Again, Hawkins losing to these chumps sticks in my craw, there is no reason CU should have ever lost to Iowa State

OK State – They are a school I respect somewhat, I am not sure I have a memorable game against CU, I remember back to the late 80’s (Big 8 time) with Barry Sanders and Thurman Thomas and those were some tough teams, what I remember and love most about them was they had a run here where they would ruin OU season, loved watching that.

K-State – Can’t stand them, never have, a bunch of JUCO flunkies who probably can’t spell cat if you spotted them the C and T, I had no respect for that team when they were good and loved how CU would still beat their punk asses because they did the typical Nebraska scheduling of lining up crap teams for their out of conference schedule to make themsleves seem better

Kansas – Not much except last year losing that game, thankfully that relieved Hawkins of his duties, the only positive that came from that game, great Bball school obviously, I had hoped they would of jumped to maybe the Big East to destroy the Big 12 and make the Big East the most dominate bb conference in the land.

Mizzou – 5th down obviously, but other than them beating us like rented mules the past few years, not much sticks out.

TT – I seem to have more memories of them playing UNM in the early 90’s than CU, having spent more time in Lubbock than I should, I can say their school is by far one of the ugliest I have ever seen

Texas A&M – I always was jazzed when we played them, especially in college station, always seemed like great games and we useally came out on top.

Baylor – Meh, not much I will remember about them.

Texas – Obviously beating them in the Big 12 championship game after whipping Nebraska was awesome, especially sitting down in a bar with a bunch of Texas fans in Albuquerque at the time, the 70 point smack down we got later was digusting. I respect Texas by the fact that Austin is about the only livable place in Texas and the school is very similar to CU as far as culture and acedemics and it is a fun place to go, but can’t stand how they want to screw over everyone else in the Big 12.
