Jerry Jones has signed OU and BYU to play the first college football game in his new DFW stadium in Arlington on Sept. 5th. Wonder if Mack Brown feels dissed?

Mack Brown? How about the whole state of Texas? Did the taxpayers foot any of the bill for this stadium?

It was paid for the City of Arlington.

That sounds like a very good game.

If this is on Labor Day, then it would be MILES better than last year's Tennessee/UCLA game.

But you'd think it would involve a TEXAS team.
