Since the last UTSA baseball thread is at 20+ pages i figured i should start this thread due to the large demand.

I think ULL would be a solid add to CUSA. I understand why La Tech fans would not want ULL brought up to their level, but it would make a great rival for them.

Please don't egg on the Cajuns. I don't think I could stomach any of the merits or demerits of their respective schools.

UTSA is up 8-3 in the 6th going for the sweep.

UTSA completed the sweep today with a 10-4 win. I enjoyed seeing the brooms at the game.

Boom goes the dynamite.

Congratulations to the Texas Roadrunners on the sweep!

No. I get the joke, but no.

That being said, have you noticed that's a very real thing they've been trying to push at Texas A&M? "Texas Aggies"?

Yeah, I used to see/hear that usage some back in the day, and originally found it confusing/weird.
It's started to grow on me, though, which I guess is what some folks in that unnamed neighboring state to the east are hoping for with their rebranding efforts.

That's been around forever though. In fact, the Aggie War Hymn's own lyrics proclaim, "Good luck to dear old Texas Aggies", and those lyrics were written in 1918. I also can't remember a time their band wasn't called the Fightin' Texas Aggie Band. And as most in Texas know, they refer to UT as t.u. because they proclaim the Longhorns aren't the true University of Texas, but rather that A&M is, and that the Longhorns are just a Texas university, hence t.u.

So it all started as a way to spite the Longhorns, and isn't something they've been trying to push. It's just always been that way, for nearly a hundred years now, and it all relates to the rivalry between the schools.

Go 'Runners! Btw, A&M is also the oldest public university in Texas, opening its doors in 1876, while UT opened its doors in 1883, so that's another reason for the "Texas Aggies" reference.
