‘Tis the season to wear burnt orange, tailgate, and scream “Texas Fight!” at the top of your lungs. While it’s sad that football season is ending, there are a few more games left for us to frolick and revel. This Saturday we’ll be playing OK State. They are already playing on our turf, so we thought we would up the ante a little. We reached out to OK State’s Her Campus chapter and decided to have a social media competition, too. It’s our favorite football traditions versus theirs, and we all know there is nothing like our Longhorn spirit. Share on facebook and twitter so we can show them what we’re made of. Make sure to tag all social media posts with #HCyouinATX! Hook ’em!

The world’s largest drum, our “sweetheart of the Longhorn Band”.
9. Celeb sightings
Can you say Natalie Portman and Matthew McConsdjfsldfj?
8. The Longhorn Band
They aren’t called “The Showband of the Southwest” for nothin’.
7. Bevo
Principal Vernon in The Breakfast Club may have had a point: “Don’t mess with the bull, young man, you’ll get the horn.”
6. The Eyes of Texas
They know when you are sleeping, they know when you’re awake, they know if you’ve been bad or good…wait…wrong song, right idea.
5. Cannon blasts
Scaring people since…forever.
4. Cheers
It’s any time of any day and OU still sucks! TEXAS. FIGHT. (This guy gets it).
3. Hook ‘em hand sign
Horns up!
2. Tailgating
Does football exist without tailgating? Is the Pope Catholic?

The one and only; in all its burnt orange glory.
