Welcome back to one-on-one on one-on-one on 93-7, the Ticket, FM.com. All the words, after like 10 hours of doing this over the last two days, all the words to start blending together. Everything just becomes one. And it's interesting.

One on old school. One on old school. 402-464-5, the Honda of Lincoln Hotline, the Sartar-Hamond's text line. Join us in our conversation because I know, I know all of you have thoughts on this. Sartre Hamond drewl's video stream as well, Facebook, YouTube, Twitch, and Twitter. Come see Mark and I together. We're hanging out. Having a blast.

Hey, Mark, let's talk horns down. Okay. Okay. Big 12 media days, the Big 12 commissioner kind of made some statements on the Horns Down penalty and how they might enforce it, but at the same time, I don't understand any of it. So the Big 12 Commissioner was trying to clear things up, and this is the quote. Let me be very clear of Hornsdown. It's when you do it, who you do it to, and which manner you do it as well.

Yeah, very clear. I don't know what that means. Very clear. How are you, let me be clear? So it's when you do it. So is there like, can I do it in the first, can I do it in the first, can I do it in the second, third, can I not do it in the fourth quarter or after the game? It's like replays in basketball where in the last two minutes of the game, you can't initiate

your own horns down. It's got to be initiated on your behalf. Yes, yes, yes, yes. So if a Texas player does horns up to me, if a Texas player flashes the horns, can I then do horns down in response? Do I get in trouble? Was that disrespectful on their part to horns up? Exactly.

Yeah. Do I get in trouble for that? Like, I won't do it towards their sideline because that's disrespectful. But if I do it to my crowd, if I do it to my sideline, if I get a sack and I throw the horns, I'm not looking at the quarterback, but I throw the horns down and I'm running, you know, towards the other end zone. But their student section happens to be there. Oops. Do I get flagged? How much time's on the clock?

It's an important part of it. Like, what the manner in which I do it? How forceful are you? If it's subtly. So if you're watching on Facebook, if I slowly form my hand into the horns and the, And then slowly, as soon as it hits here, is that the flag? If I just quickly, like, just a quick flash of the horns down. Does that...

It's like the key and peel with the thrusting. Yep. Like, he's staring at him, waiting for the third thrust. And it was just like the tiny... 45, 60 degrees, 70 degrees. Oh, 90 degrees! Throw the flag! Get him 15 yards.

How dare you? Kudoba guy says all the versions of Horns Down are acceptable. And Thomas and Lincoln, who is strangely a Texas and, Nebraska fan. Not exactly sure. Said hook them horns and threw four horns up. Does Twitter have a horns down? Of the emojis.

It has one that does this. It's like the rock one. Everybody uses it, you know, Texas uses it like that. Thomas Slingon says if there's less than two minutes and you get a good stop, it should be good. Should be allowed, right? That's the rule. Should it, though?

That's the rule. If it's less than two minutes and you get a sack and you do that, is that disrespectful? Because, like, you're showing them up because you're like, yeah, I just stopped you. What's up? then you, bam. They're like, mm-mm, too much. So I don't know for sure when it started, like when... They started with their horns?

Well, when Texas started being sensitive to it. I know there was a quote from Mac Brown. I think it goes back to like 2012. They were playing Texas Tech, I believe. And afterwards, he said, you know, that's actually pretty disrespectful to our players. I think that should be considered a taunting penalty because they're directing it towards our players. It's disrespectful. And then just last month, Chris Delcante, their AD, said that Longhorn fans should take it as a compliment.

Which is absolutely true. Yeah. His quote was, when we live in the brains and minds and hearts of individuals who go horns down, that's an incredible compliment. We're glad you're thinking of us. It tells us about the reckoning of the brand. Like, yeah. If you care that much to physically do something. Like, you don't have that for Kansas.

Like there's Big 12 games where Texas is not involved at all, and you see people in the stands throwing horns down. And it's like, Texas has not been mentioned. Rent free. This is Kansas State versus Oklahoma State. And you're flashing horns down. Like, all right, well, Texas is here. There you go. You're thinking of us.

Thank you. You should take that as a compliment. But I don't understand. Is there? Is there? Like you said, they're sensitive. And what I wanted to say is they're going to get destroyed in the SEC with Hornsdown. Oh, yeah.

Like the SEC does not care. They were told they were going to get fined for storming fields and courts. And the fans and the coaches and the players were like, okay, I guess we'll pay the fine. And the university is like, yeah, it's fine. Go ahead. We want everybody to be happy and have a good time. So you're going to give a team a 5, 10, 15-yard penalty when they're destroying Texas already. They don't care.

Starkville, Mississippi does not care. They're going to be ringing their cowbells and they're going to be flashing horns down every time. I can't imagine the SEC as a conference deciding to make that a penalty. Yeah, you're right. I mean, is there- It's not a penalty. It's just a penalty in the Big 12. Right, right.

Yeah, they have chosen to define that as taunting. Oh yeah, the SEC doesn't care. The SEC's absolutely not going to do. They're going to encourage it. They're like, you know what? Everybody needs a hand sign so everybody can be disrespectful. Go. Is there another version, like a comparable version for any other school?

The you. But is there a- They do? They do, but is there a U-down? Yeah, people do it. I don't know if it's actually, I don't think Miami even considers that disrespectful. If anybody considers that just, I mean, Oregon, but it's just an O. If you turn it upside down, it's still an O.

They're playing the system. I like that. I like that. What is it, Texas Tech and, like, Oklahoma State do, like, the guns up. I don't think there's a good one. Put them in your holster. You don't have guns with their holster. Boi-ya.

People walking around with their fingers on their hips. What are you going to do that? What up? I am being disrespectful. Oh, goodness. Thomas Lincoln says, SEC will do something if it gets out of hand in the form of not being sportsmanship.

There's no sportsmanship to it. There's no bad sportsmanship or good sportsmanship to flashing the horns up or the horns down. It's just a thing. I don't think it's being a bad, look, if you're running up and down their sideline in front of them doing that. Right, yeah, sure.

Define what getting out of hand mean. Because if I'm in somebody's face, literally horns downing up against their face mask, Sure, yeah, that's out of hand. But you could do any other things, and that's also a penalty. Mm-hmm. But, like, it's a hand sign. What are you doing?

If you're flipping somebody off, I understand. But it's horns down. It's not disrespectful. It's the same thing. It's basically a middle finger to my face. How dare you? That's not the way horns go. Or people are just like, I cut the horns off.

It's like, whatever. They posted a picture of like a longhorn with no horns. And they're like, yeah, take that Texas. I'm just like, why? Why? So is the hand sign for that, just a fist? Yeah, just, aha. Or like Nebraska or like corn chucked or whatever.

And it's like, cool. Got them. Oh, darn, you got us. Did you know people? Which is funny, because that's actually what we're supposed to do. Exactly. Like, you just did it for us. We are the corn huskers.

You husks our corn. Okay. I'm still going to eat it. Thank you so much. You can use it for feed? So I don't know how many people or if people actually take this as disrespectful, but when other teams get like sacks against Nebraska and they throw the bones. I've seen a couple of people like, how dare they?

That is ours. And I'm like, a lot of people do that. But it is ours. It is ours. It is, you know, throwing the bones. But at the same time, like, I've seen people who have no. No connection. I've seen people in the NFL with no connection to Nebraska do that.

Look, I am, well, that's true. That's true. I am all for whatever animosity that Nebraska can conjure up. Yeah, because the play on the field is not doing it a whole lot. So if it's got to be through some attitude or through some, some ill-advised black shirt bone throwing, I'm for it. I'm for it. I need some bad blood and some rivalry.

I need somebody get angry. Yeah, somebody get mad. Yeah, yeah. It makes more fun for me. So if that takes, you know, Iowa, because, was, I don't remember his first name. His last name was Ott. He ended up playing for Iowa. He was a defensive lineman. Drew? And it might have been Drew Ott. That's a baseball player. Yeah. No. It might have been. But he got a sack against Nebraska. It was his senior year. And it was in Memorial Stadium. Got a sack through the bones. And people were upset and mad at him. And I was like, I mean, I kind of get it because he plays for Iowa. But at the same time, like, he's from Nebraska. He knew exactly what he was doing. Don't give in.

Don't get mad. That's what he wants. Right, right. That's one of the things where it's like, don't get mad. That's what they want you to get mad. Just leave it and just be like, oh, yeah, good play. Oh, yeah, congratulations. Don't yell. They feed off your anger.

But it's more fun if you yell, too. It is a lot more fun. Just from where I'm sitting, do the thing to make us mad and then get mad about the thing that they did. I'm for it all. I am here for it all. Ryan from Nashville has a point. Can we talk about how Blake Quorum from Michigan had the best celebration against us when he scored a touchdown.

He pretended to eat corn. It's pretty good. That was a good one. Because that is the goal of the husking of the corn is you get to eat it at the end, right? That's the gold at the end of the rainbow. He didn't throw the bones. He didn't do that. He didn't do the, oh, you hear me not the she.

He was just like, ah, and I was like, you got us. Flag though. Flag. But yeah, flag. Taunting. If anybody pretends, that's it. If anybody pretends to eat corn in Memorial Stadium that is not a husker, 15 yards.

Big 10. Write that in the rules. Please and thank you. They would never do that. They would never do that for Nebraska. Once Nebraska starts winning again, it gets their power back. We're getting that in there. We're writing it in the rule book.

What do you do with a Buckeye? It's a seed, right? If you eat, it's poisonous. Okay, so don't eat the Buckeye. So don't eat it. Don't eat it. You just crush it? You plant it?

So, I don't know, take it out of the ground. Don't plant it. You're going to get in trouble with your coach. and I don't recommend this, hint, hint, wink, wink, wink, but find one of those Buckeye stickers. Have it in your sock. Put it on your helmet. Oh, man, how great. How great with it.

Like, you're going to get in trouble. Earned that one. You're going to get in trouble. But my goodness, how funny would that be? Oh, you'd be a legend. You'd be a legend. I assume you'd just get those, right? I'm sure you can buy it.

Yeah, like I could go to. Like, maybe it won't be the same, but just like a sticker. Same enough. Same enough. Or do you do your school. Legendary. Do a little skinny in. A little bone, a little, a skull and crossbones.

A little horseshoe. Something. Yeah. I'm in. A little herbie head? Yeah. Perfect. That would be just in your sock.

You score a touchdown. You just take it out. Boop. Yes. Sign me up. I need more. These are free ideas. Yeah.

You're welcome. We need to think of like disrespectful celebrations for other schools. Okay. I want. I want Brant and Norrie to weigh in on this on Sunday morning pancakes. Because something here has to happen for real. I need this to turn into some sort of action. I love that helmet idea.

I love that idea. I just thought of that. I never thought of that before. Yes. Yes. So we need more ideas on the text line. 402-464-5685. More disrespectful celebrations towards other schools.

When we come back on one-on-one.
