Also, what is Texas A&M OOC scheduling looking like the next couple of years? Playing world beaters like Rice and the other D-II schools in Texas doesnt leave you much room for finger pointing IMO
You are missing the point. Our OOC is roughly comparable to theirs. However, our CONFERENCE schedule is light years ahead of theirs. Our least interesting potential conference home games are Kentucky and Vandy and since they are in the East we aren't going to see them very much. This year we get Miss State, Alabama, South Carolina, and Auburn at home and two Texas based neutral site games with Arizona State and Arkansas. Next year we get UCLA, LSU, Ole Miss, and Tennessee at home. It's just a far more interesting slate that we get due to conference affiliation.
Since you asked though, here it is.

God our schedule is so awesome. I mean I want to play tu again, and I love rooting for their failure... but with that home schedule... there is just so much fun to be had... frick em. We should wait til they are begging to bring it back. We won't be bored in the mean time.

Your OOC isn't even close to theirs. Glad you think so though, I'd expect nothing less from your delusions.

Let's compare them year-by-year to see if they're actually comparable.
2015
A&M: vs. ASU (Houston), Ball St., Nevada, WCU
Texas: @ND, Rice, Cal
2016
A&M: UCLA, Louisiana Tech, UTSA, Rice
Texas: Notre Dame, UTEP, @Cal
2017
A&M: @UCLA, ULL, New Mexico
Texas: Maryland, UCF, @USC
2018
A&M: Clemson
Texas: @Maryland, Tulsa, USC
2019
A&M: @Clemson, UTSA, @Rice
Texas: USF, LSU
Other future games
A&M: Home and home with CU-Boulder, home and home with ND
Texas: @LSU, @Arkansas, home and home with Ohio St., home and home with Michigan, home and home with USF
I mean Texas pretty clearly has the better OOC schedule, but they have to because they aren't in the SEC. A&M is definitely stepping up their OOC schedule, but Texas is scheduling 2 Power 5 schools every year, and it is always including one big game.
