“It has all the trappings of a great rivalry — passionate fan bases, bordering states, close proximity, unmatched traditions and history,” A&M athletic director Eric Hyman said in a statement. “College football’s rivalry weekend is the perfect home for the [game].”

lol Aggy AD wants LSU to be rivals.

A&M had to wait as the SEC sorted through scheduling issues caused by the additions of A&M and Missouri, and will spend its second-straight Thanksgiving without a game. But it was clear the Aggies had targeted LSU — with their shared history and border and the Tigers’ three national championships and 11 SEC titles — to bring pizzazz to the featured game.

lol Aggy dickriding LSU for LSU's success

Texas, which said it had no room for A&M as a nonconference opponent when the Aggies left for the SEC, filled in with TCU in 2012 and has Texas Tech scheduled for this Thanksgiving. The 2014 Big 12 schedule has not been released, but it’s likely Texas will host TCU again on the holiday. UT has expressed an interest in hosting a game every Thanksgiving.

lol Aggy wanted to play Texas, but Texas didn't oblige. Just thought I'd toss this in.

When future schedules are announced, A&M will likely hope to host LSU every other Thanksgiving, at the least during that weekend. LSU does not plan to play on the holiday when it hosts the Aggies, LSU confirmed.

lol Aggy hoping (aka begging LSU to do it every year like Texas-LSU says suck that tiger dick)
