Home schedule, all and all, isn't that bad:

LSU
Missouri
Ole Miss
Lamar
UL Monroe
Rice

To put it in perspective, here are the HOME schedules when I was in school (first 4 years of the Big 12 conference):

1996 Season

North Texas
#12 Colorado
Louisiana Tech
Kansas State
Texas Tech
Oklahoma (John Blake Oklahoma)

1997 Season

Sam Houston State
Southwest Louisiana (Now UL-Lafayette)
North Texas
Iowa State
#19 Oklahoma State
Baylor (automatic win)
Texas (4-7 version)

1998 Season

Louisiana Tech
North Texas
#2 Nebraska
#25 Texas Tech
Oklahoma (Year before Stoops)
#13 Missouri

1999 Season

Louisiana Tech
Tulsa
Southern Miss
Baylor (automatic win)
Kansas (automatic win)
Oklahoma State
#5 Texas

I'd put the 2014 home schedule against ANY of the home schedules from when I was in school except for the 1998 season...and that's only because of Nebraska and Missouri.

Although we took a huge amount of beat downs after joining the SEC the rotation has always been UGA / UT at home or UF / Clemson at home. So we've always been guaranteed at least 2 big home games a year. Every once and a while a Bama, AU, or LSU would be on there was well.

If (I should say when) Texas gets back on the schedule A&M will also have a similar set up. It will be difficult but it'll guarantee an exciting home schedule practically every year.

2 of the best A&M games I have ever been to have been against Nebraska.

We were at school the same years. I remember that shite... it was bad.

Home schedule isn't great this season, but it has been worse. Plus, more opportunities to see other stadiums/schools.

Looking forward to visiting Columbia in a few months.
