Oh, we know the formula isn't a secret.
It's just that, despite it being very well known, the other conferences still haven't figured out how to make it work.
That's why Texas and Oklahoma are coming here. You couldn't beat 'em, so now you're joining 'em.

In 2003, the crowd in attendance at Bryant Denny was 83,818.
Your North and South EZ expansion hadn't even occurred yet. So no, you didn't intimidate us into a 20-13 win with "muh crowd noiz".
It was the first OOC home game (2nd game of the season) which means you spent your entire offseason preparing for that OU game.

Doubt anyone is reading all that but these posts are so dumb. I said the same thing before Texas came in and beat Bama this year. Is is true that the SEC is a grind, more so than other conferences, but they will adjust and be fine.
I have no doubt both will adjust and be fine and win more of the road games in those big time environments than they lose. The difference I think comes when you have 2 or 3 of those type road games in a single season. You're bound to come out a little flat in one of them with the home crowd losing their mind and a good to great home team playing with their hair on fire and before you know it you leave with an L. Has happened to Alabama quite a few times under Saban...2010 @ South Carolina, 2014 @ Ole Miss, 2017 @ Auburn, 2021 @ Texas A&M, and 2022 @ Tennessee and 2022 @ LSU.

Rank posts make up about half of the board. They are dumb and boring and unoriginal.

Some of you guys live in a world of nonsense. Texas plays lots of OOC games in large stadiums (Bama this year, Michigan next year, etc.).
LOL at your definition of “lots”.
Texas has played 2 true road games in the last 3 years with attendance over 74k. Arkansas and Bama. The next closest is Iowa St at 61k.

It amazes me that you aggots have to pretend not to know your own history of joining this league in your first season just so you can toe the company line for their approval.

You're missing the point.
I'm not talking about random games; I'm talking about the trajectory of the programs.
Texas hired a former Alabama coordinator and made moves to join the SEC. It doesn't matter if you have a winning record or losing record vs the SEC; the simple fact of the matter is that you're joining the SEC rather than remain the big dog of the Big 12.
If all that mattered was what your record was against SEC programs and the most recent game against an SEC opponent mattered, then why leave where you're the king of the hill?

Blah blah blah
Sark at Alabama played against Arkansas? whoppee. Sark as HC at Texas playing against Arkansas in Fayetteville was much different. The next time Texas plays in Arkansas will be much different, for different reasons.
Nothing in the SEC compares to playing in the 30+ MPH wind, snow and freezing temperatures in Oklahoma, Kansas & Iowa. Those factors affect a game much more than the number of people of in the stands.

LOL
Look, at the end of the day, you're all just chuntering the same nonsense you did before mizzou and aggot joined the league; even using the same "big boy" jibberish because you lack originality.
It was mindless posturing then, and it's mindless posturing now, and none of that shite came to fruition for mizzou or aggie when they joined your league. Neither of them came apart because "da SEC was just too much for them" OR "muh SEC crowd noiz". None of that happened. Absolutely zero. That's historical fact and you can't pretend a fact away.

You weren't supposed to tell them any of this. They haven't given the elements in OK a single, solitary thought.

No it's not. A&M has won at a higher percentage against SEC conference foes than they did in the Big 12 or SWC. One of the most underachieving programs in the history of college football achieves more against the really loud, meat grinder SEC schedule than they have anywhere else.
Put simply: A&M beats SEC teams more often than they beat Big 12 teams.

Hasn't Missouri won their division multiple times during their first three years in the SEC? Missouri.
