(Ed. note: Since "Turtle Camp" was phased out of The University of Texas budget in the mid- 1980s, it has become apparent that many Longhorns are unaware of our deep-seeded hatred for Wofford College of Spartanburg, S.C. As Texas' most-hated rival, Wofford, heretofore referred to as "wu" (tee-hee!) was the subject of an intensive, month-long orientation session in which incoming freshmen would be indoctrinated into the whys and ways of hating the Terriers. For centuries this rivalry lay dormant, but when the basketball teams squared off in December of 1999, it revived the hatred these institutions have for each other. The final score was Texas 89, "wu" (tee-hee!) 57. But that was only the half of it. Outside the Erwin Center, fisticuffs and skirmishes ensued. A group of "wu" (tee-hee!) students surrounded myself and my young children, asking if I knew what a "Wofford Pita" was? I sought the aid of the UT Police Dept., but to no avail. My son's broken nose and daughter's six-inch deep stab wound that missed her heart by the narrowest of margins have healed...my intense hatred for "wu" (tee-hee!) has not.
And still, a year after Texas ran its all-time series dominance of "wu" (tee-hee!) to 1-0, the arrogance emanating from Spartanburg, S.C., continues. Why just this past week -- and I'm totally serious about this -- I called the Hornfans.com rivalry poll to the attention of a Mr. Mark Cohen in the "wu" (tee-hee!) Sports Information Dept. His response, and I quote ...
"Very interesting. Texas did have to rally from a nine-point deficit to beat us in men's basketball last year. I'd love to play them again on our home court. Please fill me in on how the Terriers had the honor of being included in the poll. It's great exposure for us!"
Rally from a nine-point deficit??? Play them in Spartanslum??? Great exposure for them???
It's easy to see, from those five sentences alone, why "wu" (tee-hee!) represents an evil that must be eradicated from the earth. -- Swam)
I am NOT obsessed with "wu!" posted by Swam4Texas 12-14-99................................
God I hate Wofford.
Even though they prefer to be referred to as "Wofford" or "Wofford College" I will start calling them "wu" because it is a way for me to show disrepect to their school, in a juvenile kind of way.
I have also taken the liberty of changing the words to "Texas Fight" for this game, and hope we will keep them for the rest of the season...
Wofford Sucks, Wofford Sucks,
I don't like the Terriers
Wofford Sucks, Wofford Sucks,
Let's bomb them with Harriers
Wofford Sucks, Wofford Sucks,
Cause their team really sucks
Give 'em hell, Give 'em hell
Wofford Sucks
And it's goodbye to Sucky Wofford.
I also think we should make an up-and-down motion with an outstretched right arm and the fingers formed as if one were holding a scalpel, and then sing,
"Neuter Wofford's nusticles, Neuter Wofford's nusticles, Neuter Wofford's nusticles. Hey! Wofford's nusticles have been neutered."
There are actually four verses for my new version of "Texas FIght." The first is waht appears above. The second replaces the word "team" with "school." The third uses "players." The fourth is "coaches." I guess someone could make verses five or six or seven with "alumni" or "fans" or "students", but I don't have the time to do that right now. If someone else feels like doing that, please post it in a reply here and we'll try it out Saturday.
I've also spent the better part of this week putting wood in my fireplace. I plan to burn it Friday night, representing "my burning desire to beat "wu." (tee-hee!) I have to giggle when I say "wu."
I also think I'll start calling "wu" (tee-hee!) fans and students something that makes no sense like "snips." Maybe we can tie it into the aforementioned neutering motion.
Anyhoo, it's only 101 hours until tipoff, so I think I'll go spend the rest of the week on the "wu" (tee-hee!) board, even though I'm not obsessed with "wu." (tee-hee!)
Beat the hell outta "wu" (tee-hee!)
God I hate Wofford.

Thank goodness I am not the only one. I have always viewed the terriers as a hated rival to be loathed and despised. If you find out where they are staying please post the numbers, so we can call the coach and players all night. Hopefully, the will stay in a UT firendly chain hotel that will collaborate to botch their meal. There is no way they can play with the Horns without a good meal.
Hook 'em Horns and beat the dog sh## out of the terriers. From the president of the Horns who hate wu foundation.

I remember when I went to freshman orientation years ago, and they told me how lucky I was to be going to Texas, instead of w.u. I mean, do you know what kind of people hang around Spartaburg? Have you ever really looked at a Boston terrier's eyes?
Can we try to get the cheers organized before the game Saturday? I think instead of everyone yelling out whatever they feel like against w.u., it would be better if we carefully plan everything, so we can all do it in unison.
"don't wanna go to old w.u., where the dogs are terriers and the team is too."

"Don't even get me started on those wine-sips. They think they're so high and mighty, the arrogance coming out of Spartanburg can be seen back here in Austin. All they do is live in the past. If you look at their official basketball page, it still has the win over Clemson as its headline. That was over three weeks ago!!!
They think they're so much smarter than everybody else just because their incoming freshman in 1999 averaged 1177 on their SAT's. Not only that, but they have a pre-veterinary program!

That coach they're going on and on about -- Richard Johnson or something -- he's never won a conference championship.
And do you know that at least 17 times as many Texas graduates wereheroes in WW2 as Wofford graduates? Didn't General Mark Clark say "Give me a Wofford Terrier, and I'll put him on KP; Give me a TEXAS LONGHORN, and we'll kick some Nazi ***!"

Damn you, Swam. I had all that antipathy for Wofford and its mange-ridden hide all bottled up till now, but no more. What sickens me is how they always buried the deceased Terriers facing the aren's scoreboard and treat the damned mutts like they're royalty. THEY'RE JUST DEAD DOGS, DAMMI!

I went to wofford games a s a small lad. my pappy worked as a forklift technician at a small fireworks manufacturer 2.7 miles away in shanksville, s.c. i can tell you going to a wofford basketball game is pure hell, they stand the whole game. and whenever they score, they turn to the fat girl next to them and spit in her face. i just hope they don't bring their damn mascots to the game, that's right, there are two of them. one's a live mutt, the other is some freshman coed who dresses in a toto-the-dog suit and chases a midget wearing a fire hydrant costume. as for the live mutt, well they have four seniors who dress as eagle scouts and carry machetes to fend off the dog's hypothetically mortal enemies (groundhogs, i think, or maybe hegehogs.) the machete doubles as a pooper scooer if the dog decides to **** on the court, which occasionally happens immediately prior to an opponent's free throw. the fake mascot is no better, frankly, she's a *****. but hey, when you're the hottest babe on campus, I guess you can be that way. anyway, we'll be lucky to make it through this game. i know coach barnes is trying to beef up the schedule for the RPI, but this one could come back to bite us in the ***.

why is it that every single wofford cheer has to be some derogatory slam on UT (and/or some other school)? the inferiority complex is obvious. if they were worth a dman, they'd have the self-esteem to focus on their own piddly little no-good school. and the terrier cheerleaders are all dogs. all you need to make the squad is two legs and a hairbrush. i haven't seen mutts like that since the rutgers game.

This is a huge game for recruiting and could sway many recruits who are undecided. For all the families that have both Wofford and UT allegiances thi sgame will provide bragging rights for decades to come. It is a successful season if we beat Wofford, and it will probably ensure that Rick Barnes keeps his job for another year. These big rivalry games are hard to call - I think this one will be close. Wofford is fired up now that they have renewed their sixth man tradition. (For those who do not know, Wofford lost to Stetson in 1904 124-33, and during the game WU was so short-handed that their legendary coach, Dick Dribble, told the fan in attendance to get ready to play. That fan never made it into the game, and had actually graduated six years earlier, but still what a great tradition. And think how great it would have been had he actually played). WU now suits up one student at random for each of its home games and this "sixth man" renews the fervor and pride that all Terriers (they do not view this trerm negatively) have in that really bad undermanned team and the fan that never played. Seems silly that we take so much pride in our players who do play - we should learn from the Terriers and embrace tradition and pride in those who do nothing. God bless WU and God bless America, and I for one can only hope that some day we are as good as our WU counterparts.
