Question (too lazy to look up): win tonight clinches SOLO title or a still a share?
Not a fan of sharing titles here either, Big g.

I'm all for celebrating it in AFH, unfair to the home crowd not to after all the fantastic support it has provided over the decades.
And given the way he came into the conference, it would be sweet to clinch sole ownership against Shaka in Austin.
As for court storming, save it for #14 if it must be done, but I would prefer not. After all, we're talkin' 'bout Phog... The Phog. (Can ya dig it?)

I was wondering if we'd celebrate. Since we'd clinch a tie tonight and potentially a solo win on Saturday at Texas on Saturday, I'd think it would be classier to celebrate at home, cut down our own nets, etc. It's not always possible to do it, but I'm glad they'll do it that way (assuming we win of course).
Cool that B Rush and Mario will be in the house tonight, for Rush's jersey retirement. Should be a fun night in the old barn.
Unfortunately, I've got a school board meeting at the same time, so I'll be watching via DVR.
The real mystery on everyone's mind is whether or not NotOstertag will change his signature tonight....

The lone occasion. And note that it's not after a live win at AFH.

Seems to be an opportunity for a thug-fest. (recalling the guano-show from the Octagon of Dumb, when (was it Jamari?) got sideswiped intentionally? And our COACH (and team?) getting dangerously slammed into the scorer's table in the handshake line?)
Thanks for the clarification on the shared title implications for tonight.....Rock Chalk, Baby.
I CAN dig it!
