Plus: Anthony Hill lands on prestigious watch list
Texas Longhorns minister of culture Matthew McConaughey chimed in this week to add his two cents to the conversation surrounding fans throwing trash on the field after a bad call in the Georgia game.
“First off, you were electric Saturday night when we hosted Georgia. Bravo. Let’s continue to bring it. Even though our Horns didn’t get the W, you created a measurable home-field advantage,” wrote McConaughey. “But let’s get real about the bottle bombing the field glitch we had. Not cool. Bogey move. Yeah, that call was BS, but we’re better than that. Longhorn Nation knows how to show up, show out like no other, and still keep our class. So, going forward, let’s clean that kind of BS up and leave that behind us for good. We have to shake hands on that.”
Alright, alright, alright. Point taken.
