Makes sense to me. I don't understand the deal with not wanting to play them. I'd hate to not play Clemson every year, both programs know we are each other's rival.
I want to play Texas too, but I don't want the first time playing them to be in a meaningless, shitty Texas Bowl. I would rather play them on Thanksgiving like we always have instead

That's some of it, but why should we throw them a life raft? They have no home games of any major interest.
Why should we play them without a big mutha fricking payday attached to it? Our next game will be one that demands top dollar price tag, probably in NRG in Houston or jerry world in Dallas. This bowl pays out somewhere around 3mill. Hell, our game with arky, when it started was paying 5mill per team each game. Probably more now after that new negotiation.
This is now the second time in history they have ended our rivalry, the first in the early 19'teens I believe. We are past it, over it and done with it.
I hope to see tech on our home schedule one day, that was a much more competitive game and one school that hasn't talked much shite while we moved our campus OOS when we went SEC.
No thanks, I'm going to enjoy the new venue and enjoy Arky stoping the sips.
Only reason I would want the game this year is to watch Swoopes tear that fanbase in half.

Sad thing is neither A&M nor Texas "Run Their Own State"
Who would of thought it be Baylor & TCU

Baylor and tCu had great seasons, no doubt, but they don't run shite. They have the better teams this season, and they have certainly earned more respect because of their play.

What exactly does aTm run? Ridiculous twitter slogans not withstanding.

You sure about that? I see an awful lot of bravado from aTm fans about the state of the program despite going from 11-2 to 7-5 in two years
Sunshine pumpers for every program, but I think most of us Ags want to see some results on the field. I'm fine to call this season a "promising disappointment" for a few reasons:
1. Recruiting is still going well
2. We have a chance to win 4 straight bowl games, which we have NEVER done
3. some bright spots on the D and Kyle Allen is going to get more practice time
Having written all that, if we don't make marked improvement next season I think we can begin to strongly question Sumlin's ability to coach a major program.

“They left,” Dodds said. “They're the ones that decided not to play us. We get to decide when we play again. I think that's fair. If you did a survey of our fans about playing A&M, they don't want to. It's overwhelming. I know. I hear it. Our fans are important to us. I think there's got to be a period where things get different. I think there's too many hard feelings.”

Those were all good points. I'd say one more mediocre year for Sumlin, especially considering what he's being paid, and his seat should be pretty warm.
aTm needs to find a running game and a D pretty quick or I think you guys will be looking for a new coach after 2015.

Recruiting in Texas. But you knew that.
It is going to be even better when Arky kills our only real competition for talent. Between the committee telling the world that TCU and Baylor can't get a shot at something bigger and the SEC matching up Texas with the worst matchup strategically for them, things couldn't be better.

No....I am not as happy as a pig in shite. I don't like that LSU pays its coordinators more than us, we need to fix that this offseason.
Since we can't beat your program on the field we plan to go Ronald Reagan on your arse and increase the costs of everything in the SEC West until LSU is bankrupt and has to sell off its legos.
Les's agent has to be licking his chops at the combo of an open Michigan job and the fact we pay Sumlin $5 million a year.

There's no doubt. And Alleva will give him another raise if it comes down to it. I don't think he deserves another raise until he brings home another SEC title, but the market is getting out of control. In 10 years the average salary of SEC coaches may be 5 mil a year
