I find it interesting that most of the Husker fan base is starting to come around to what I've known for years. Texas is the best. At everything. No really, they are. I say this because I lived in the state for 5 years, and I learned a good deal from the humble folks down there.
First of all, Texas is the biggest state. By far. Alaska? Just a myth - actually a part of Canada, and most of it is ice anyway, so how does it count as actual land?
Secondly - Texas could be it's own country if it wanted to. They don't really NEED the United States, but stick around for our sakes. They even beat the Mexicans at the Alamo to claim their own independence.
Thirdly - 'Chuck Norris', whose actual name is Walker, is from Texas.
Fourth - George Bush is from Texas. He had the most dignitude of any president.
Fifth - More people are killed by the death penalty in Texas than most other states combined. So Don't Mess with Texas, America.
6 - The Texas flag can fly at the same height as the American flag. Everyone knows this and cares about this. Because it matters.
7 - When UT fans come to Lincoln in their bright burnt orange, a lot of them like to get out their red, white, and blue Texas state flags (of the 9 FBS schools in Texas, they are the only true representative) and wave them in our faces, just to show us the 1)All those colors coordinate perfectly and 2)Nebraska was once a part of Texas, if we know our history at all.
8 - UT fans always cheer when BEVO takes a dump on the Alamodome carpet - it's a tradition.
9 - Nebraska didn't deserve their share of the 1970 National Championship, because they didn't lose the Cotton Bowl to Notre Dame. (24-11)
10 - Texas is a better state than Nebraska, and last year's Big XII Championship game proves it.
