I was in Forth Worth recently and saw the new stadium. It was already a great setting in the way that the campus sort of rolls into the stadium, at least the way that I have walked campus. Wow, does it look great. I really am determined to get to a game there this year and do some tailgating.
I read a comment on here about a guy who went to the BU game this past Sunday. He said everyone was very happy to see his Frogs hat and welcomed him to the game. Despite the history during conference realignment, nearly every Bear fan that I talk to could not be more jazzed. If you doubt that, think about a few facts:
Your move to the conference has helped stabilize it. I am convinced we need more (still hoping FSU in 2013) but sure glad you all are here. Punch Grambling in the mouth and rep the conference, check that, rep OUR conference. I cannot stand the SEC or Big 10 but they really do have an interesting, artful balance of hating each other but defending and pimping the conference as an entity. I hope the Big 12 can eventually get there while keeping the rivalries.
Good luck and again, congrats on that sweet stadium. Looking forward to October and now, let's return to hating.

Despite the history during conference realignment, nearly every Bear fan that I talk to could not be more jazzed. If you doubt that, think about a few facts:
- A rivalry that is perfectly tied with a long history
- TCU brings real BCS success, an upgrade over a delusional school and a dud (someone seriously wanted Missouri?)
- We have another private school in the conference, with a similar history/affiliation
- Very strong academics (someone has to offset a few of the schools you can graduate from with a fishing license)
- Great location (and very close to us, which makes the games across all sports more energized)
