Yes, you are correct good sir. LSU ran from us after losing 5 in a row, thus breaking a contract and to this day still owes us over 400,000

It was $100K.
quote:
LSU cancelled the series with two games remaining after the 1995 game in College Station.
That move sparked some friction between the schools, which contributed to them not renewing the series. With the SEC going to a divisional format and eight conference games in 1992, then-LSU Athletic Director Joe Dean said he couldn't afford to give up one of three non-conference home games every year.
"You've almost got to have seven home games to pay the bills," Dean said. "That's all it was. Some of the A&M people felt because we were losing to them we didn't want to play anymore.
"It was peaceful, friendly. It wasn't ugly. I thought we'd wait a few years and reschedule them when we could manipulate the home-and-home series with the SEC."
Crow had a different point of view.
"I said, 'Get out of another (game)' because this game means too much for us,'" Crow said. "We would sell the stadium out for LSU. Them and Texas were only ones we did that."
LSU eventually refused to play the final two games and the schools settled the matter for $100,000. Attempts by LSU to renew the series have been rebuffed, insiders say, because of lingering hard feelings over breaking the contract.

Maybe y'all should do the same now after losing 4 in a row.

Aggies have been living a lie. LSU did settle it.

Story goes from LSU owes aTm over $400,000 for this.
Then story changed to LSU owes aTm $100,000.
Then story changes to LSU settled already for $100,000.
aTm and their money..they say they are rich, but now I take caution as to believing.

so for the last 20 years every a&m fan i've met who has bitched about LSU owing them money has been completely wrong? That's pretty funny if true.

Can we sue the SEC for forcing us to have to play inferior competition in A&M since we obviously stopped playing them because it wasn't worth our time?
