UT is not called “Berkeley on the Brazos”. The Brazos River is nowhere near Austin. Rather, it runs through Waco, home of Baylor University, renowned worldwide as “Sodom on the Brazos”.

UT is more like “Cornell on the Colorado”.

Well, maybe not by you, but it is a common term. I realize that the Brazos does not run through Austin, but it is a take on "Washington on the Brazos", for comedic effect.

I didn't just make it up...
