Poor Arkysauce.....mad, mad that now both A&M( and Mizz ) will further the descent into mediocrity, Let me guess...they really think competing with A&M in the SEC for Texas HS recruits will help them get that elusive SEC West title.

Actually being located in a state that produces enough talent to win a MNC says, "whats up"?

I know. That's not brag worthy when you're A&M.

What was the population of Texas in 1939?

It helped when you consider that we won a conference championship in the last 20 years, unlike some teams.

And it certainly helps when you look at current recruiting rankings that do a better job of showing A&M's future than its non-SEC years.

You're in the SEC now. Big-12 conf champs don't make a fk.

Its June. Recruiting ranking right now means nothing.

Ask the SEC fan bases how many fricks they give about any title not won while you're in the SEC.

You beat us at recruiting just about every year.

We beat you on the field just about every year.

Its just the way things are.

How many games will A&m and Missouri win in the sec this coming season? I am guessing not very many.

yep, Texas and TCU (and even Tech under Leach) have parlayed that into national success. Hell, Baylor even got a Heisman winner out of it.

Says something about the recruit rankings. It's a well known fact that a recruit from Arkansas will not get the same rank as one from Texas, even if he's slightly better. It's just a benefit of the doubt that a kid who plays HS ball in Texas gets.

You really think that you can continue to beat a program that you admit gets better talent regularly?

Back in the SWC days yall did recruit better than us- you raided Texas for talent. That is how you beat us, which makes sense as the more talented teams regularly win more.

I would have assumed you would have figured how football works your last 20 years in the SEC as more talent programs have pounded you, but I guess if I was a fan of a program that needs out of state talent to compete I would ignore the truth as well.

You did have a magician who somehow undid the regular equation to a degree, but he is gone. The huge gulf in recruiting rankings is the best crystal ball we have to the future.

Crow Law 13v:
A Title in the Big 12 is greater than No Title in the SEC*.

*You must actually have a Conference Championship Trophy before you can legitimately degrade the Title from any other conference, including the Sunbelt.

Whats the excuse for us beating yall the past few years then? Yall had a constant higher recruiting ranking than us from what I remember therefore you should have beat us every time.
