Yep! The Aggies.

I like the Horny Frogs better.

UT's football program has been in the dumps for a long time now.

My girlfriend is a big fan of Auburn, so we watch a lot of college football.

Auburn games are a great experience. It's rare to me to see 87,000 people in one building getting along so well. I've been to three games there and never saw anyone in a bad mood. People are extremely polite and friendly.

I think Auburn and Alabama have the best rivalry in the country. When you live in that area, everyone picks a side. It's Roll Tide or War Eagle, and there's no in-between.

You know I would have called it Jalapeno X, just sounds cool!
I never grew them, but not sure why? I like them a lot, the flavor is one of the best! Unique! One problem i seem to have with jalapeno is they're just as hot coming out! I often sing the Johnny Cash song Ring of Fire, when the moments calls for it.

Eat a whole bottle of pickled Tabasco peppers and see what happens.

Well here it is MSU and U of M. Nothing else matters...
OK, so MSU plays Ohio State tomorrow. A good one too! MSU is my Alma Mater. Rose Bowl Champs! Yes! See you guys in the playoffs, if you make it?

My favorite peppers are Scotch Bonnets, so they do a good job too! I actually only use them for jerk sauce. Way too hot to eat fresh! I did find one with little heat, but I don't like it.
Hey thanks in other threads for pointing out Tex Mex peppers and other products you like. I book marked those threads for later reference.

Cool MSU is your Alma Mater. I'm hoping the MSU vs Ohio State is on ABC locally. Is it at Ohio State? No matter where it's played ...just beat OS.

So far, nobody has written about growing the Senorita Jalapeno, so if I can get some seeds or find transplants - I'll try them and revive this thread next year. The Fooled You Jalapeno, I know I have seen that one at a local plant store. I think it was in 2013. Something there just rings a bell.

Plant store? I wasn't sure if that is the right description or not. It is a local mom and pop shop that sells mostly plants. It is not a nursery because they don't plant and grow their plants. They get shipments that they water and sell to the public. I never thought about it before. One way or other, we try to support local M&P shops as much as we can.

It's at MSU. Well distracting from the terrible weather. I would hate to play in it, but watching is ok!
I cleaned my garden, picked the last peppers. Drying the last round for the year now. Some Brazilian Starfish, Uyababa, Lemon Drop. Grilled the last of the Green chili peppers, for later use. A great year, sad it's over. Well it's not over. I have 5 I'm overwintering!

Over the next 4 days, I have to bring in the peppers, purple hull peas, and tomatoes because next Wednesday WINTER begins here. They're saying lows around 35F and highs in the 40s. Sounds like frost weather to me.

Yeah here we have had those conditions for 2 weeks. Yes a few frosts. But next week Wednesday lows are the mid 20's so it's time. I still have some cacti out, as they can take frosts, but everything else is in. Lettuce is in a cold frame. Seeing how well it will do.
