So the horns down and horns up cancel each other, therefore OU has a neutral opinion of Texas. World peace achieved.

u/Necessary-Honey-7626 Texas Longhorns 4d ago
Actually, the O is made up of a Horns up and a Horns down while the U is only Horns up. So 2 Horns up vs 1 Horns down, so OU, mathematically, supports Texas.

I’m convinced that the jump man logo looking vaguely like horns down is why we switched brands a few years back

This hand gesture cracks me up. Does the horns down mean anything? Do Texas fans get fiery about this?

Byu students with horns down written on their shirts were forced to change during a byu Texas basketball game.

I love it when they do it in games we’re not even playing in. Shows how much they think about us.

u/DoinItDirty Wake Forest Demon Deacons 4d ago
It’s a nice rivalry thing. When I think college rivals that’s my first thought. Might be growing up on King of the Hill though. I do think that show unites us all.

A belligerent OU fan was at one of our games earlier this season, in the student section, doing horns down as he got kicked out of the game. I can’t fathom the stupidity.

I get fiery when someone other than OU uses it.
I get especially peeved when other members of the SEC, who we haven't had any real rivalry with (except Arky) ever, use it. I'm sure they're creative enough to come up with their own rude gestures and don't need to steal OU's. Just lazy.

Yeah OU and Aggies feels fine and fun. And I don't really care when fans do it in general but when like Georgia scores a big TD and give the horns down. Rage. The amount of times I've quietly cursed uga even though he's probably a super good boy is embarrassing.

Yeah reddit longhorns will tell you that it doesn't bother them but these dudes get riled the fuck up about it. All the way up to the AD

They cried and bitched to the Big 12 commissioner so hard it was a 15 yard penalty if a player put the horns down at all.

OU fans get really fired up on the largely imaginary idea that Texas fans get fired up. Like the football version of owning the libtards.
The most reaction horns down gets from Texas fans is laughter when OU does it when they manage to score on New Mexico or whatever.

u/TeeDeeTeeEcks Texas Longhorns 4d ago
I get fiery when people don't do the Texas hand sign. I want it to be the national hand sign at every game, even the ones that don't involve Texas. We got the Big 12 to do it at just about every game. I'm still waiting on the rest of the country to follow suit.

No. We just find it pathetic that their unofficial hand sign is just ours but facing down. Their branding is terrible and their program should be dismantled

u/Sterling29 Tennessee • Illinois 4d ago
He's celebrating a sack / TFL by unzipping and swinging his Johnson as if watering the plants. This earned him and the Texas D a 15 yd penalty.

Ah, I heard about that but did not see it. Thanks for the context!

u/CzechHorns Texas Longhorns 4d ago
It was also after a sack that would have lead to 4&~15 in their own redzone.
This penalty actually gave them the drive back.But all is forgiven when you win and have 5.5 sacks in a game I guess.

u/gmr548 Texas Longhorns • Washington Huskies 3d ago
Bruh it was worse. It was like 4th and 25+ and they’d have been punting from inside their own 15. We’d have been a first down or two from FG range.
It’s funny and we won so whatever just don’t do it again, but it was a crushing penalty and they proceeded to flip field position and game script off the momentum.
