Let the Smack Talk Begin!

The Texas Longhorns don't take the field for real until this Saturday afternoon when they face off against Rice. And it's more than a month until the big game against Oklahoma at the Cotton Bowl. But it's never too early for the loving language of rivals to start hurtling back and forth over the state line.

Bleacher Report has a slideshow detailing the top five reasons the Sooners despise the Longhorns. Within the countdown, the writer (Oklahoma Featured Columnist Billy Ray) calls Texas fans cocky, arrogant, obnoxious, and condescending. He says burnt orange isn't a real color. He calls head coach Mack Brown a whiner.

Of course, these are just the preseason ramblings of an OU fan. What do you think are some of the Sooners' less-redeeming qualities?
