Me and my buddy always take a good luck dip at the start of the first quarter and third quarter. I swear to god as soon as I take it out we start doing crapty.
Point in case the texas game in 06. I had my normal start of third quarter dip and boom we go up 21. I take it out and back comes texas. Luckily I was halfway sober enough to realize that I needed to put another dip in if I wanted the cats to win. IMO I single handily won us that game.....
