Meh. I'd rather be playing PAC and B1G teams for our P5 game. I'd be okay with a two game set or one neutral site game I guess but not a true series

I don't want to play them in Lubbock or jerry world since we are already playing there. Would much rather schedule someone from the B1G, PAC, or ACC

Ehhh I really don't want to pkay them on a regular basis. I'd rather we expand our horizons and play someone different.

San Antonio would get my vote. frick a home and home for sure. And two games tops. Thinking about it though I'd rather just not play them

If not for Kingsbury I think most would reject this without a second thought. If it happens I hope it's a neutral site or exclusively at A&M. Lubbock can go to hell.

agreed. if not san Antonio we could do Houston. but id rather not play

I'm ok playing them but I'm not in favor of it happening at a neutral site.

Normally I'm against neutral site games but frick Lubbock
Posted on 6/17/14 at 7:18 pm to dead money
frick going to Lubbock. one game in kyle field or two games both at a neutral site or one game at kyle field and the other at a neutral site.

Lubbock is a shithole, I agree.... but no one is there to sightsee...lol
If we were theoretically gonna set up a neutral site, let it be in San Diego or something....

The only way this makes sense if to do a 2 for 1 like SMU or Kyle & a neutral site. I don't think Tech will do either.

I'd like the move just because It'll help break the ice with other Big12 AD's in football scheduling.

I agree in theory but honestly eliminating an entire conference will make it tougher to fill out the P5 requirement and I'm afraid it will put us in an unfavorable negotiating spot. We will see though.

Im going to get flamed, but personally I'd rather A&M schedule the Purdues and Rutgers of the P5 conferences. I'm pretty sure going undefeated will lead to a Playoff spot at the end of the season. No need to make our schedule even harder.
Hell, Washington State recently visited Auburn without a return game to Pullman. Let's get something like that set up in our favor.

Agree. Would be nice variety. And fans that travel would probably prefer going somewhere new.

There's no need to rush to saying yes or no to this. 2020 is so far away that it could be strategically advantageous to play them. Right now that looks like a bad option that does nothing to benefit A&M

Giant "meh".
I'd rather play home and home and have to go to Lubbock than San Antonio. At least Lubbock's a college town with hot skank trim running around. San Antonio is just an awful tourist trap full of strip malls, chain everything, and fat people.
