As the longstanding rivalry between The University of Texas and A&M ends, the University prepares for a new Thanksgiving football game against TCU. Before each Thanksgiving game, students participate in putting a hex on their opponents. Since 1941 UT has been hexing A&M, but this year the candles will be lit for a new team. Students, Texas Exes organizers and fans have differing opinions on the transition. Some are hopeful for the change in tradition while others lament the end of an era. As the rally slogan goes, "same hex, same spirit, new game."
