Not everyone seems happy with Texas and Oklahoma applying to be a part of the SEC.
One Texas lawmaker used an opportunity during a session to rip on the Longhorns’ football team — which hasn’t been bad but not national championship-level good in recent years — with some shots taken at the move.
Let’s set the scene: here’s state senator Lois Kolkhorst speaking with UT president Jay Hartzell. She asked about the school’s athletic budget and then said, “without a winning football team of late.”
And then?
“Three and seven against the Horned Frogs,” she added. “Maybe your fanbase would rather lose to Alabama than TCU.”
Ouch. Wow.
Texas lawmaker wasn’t having it with University of Texas’ president and their athletic budget 🤣

Texas President: “We’ve been winning, just not like we’d like to.”
State senator responds: "3-7 against the Horned Frogs. Perhaps you’d rather lose to Alabama than TCU."

C’mon, this is just a factually incorrect statement.
Texas has only *two* wins against TCU since the Horned Frogs joined the Big 12. https://t.co/XZaXw3Pvzo
