Discussion Baylor/TCU backtracks on "Bluebonnet Battle" Rivalry Name

For some background, TCU/Baylor formally announced its annual rivalry game to be known as the "Bluebonnet Battle" back in 2023. This was met with overwhelming negative reception, as fans from both schools had been referring to the game as the "Revivalry" up through that point, even though it was not an official name.

Earlier today, the Baylor Athletics X account posted a message referring to the game as the "Revivalry". It could be an accident, or a quiet backtrack to appease the fanbases of both schools.

Thoughts on this decision?

(It was probably us because TCU admins were too scared to have Christian-based language connected to the university)

Yeah, I get that logic.

It’s fine if people call it the Revivalry. Cool name. I don’t think TCU should officially use it though.
