Is the game this weekend bigger to aTm than any game against Texas?

Can't stop talking about big brother, can you?

Oh, wait.

Que?

What? You act like I'm an aggie fan or something. I never paid attention to your games before you joined the sec. I'm curious.

This game isn't even for control of the west.

When we win Saturday we win the West.

and i gave you the answer that you were fishing for

NO. This is the first conference game. It is a long year. Plenty of the Texas matchups determined the spot in the Cotton Bowl. That was not potential, that was end of season finale.

However, the media exposure is bigger for this game. And it could be a jumping off point into future success this year and beyond. So, potential implications could be bigger. But that is just potential. Still have other games on the schedule after that.

I doubt any games against ut meant as much, nationally, to both teams. Also, I don't know for sure & I'm not gonna bother looking it up, I doubt ut and aTm ever played when they were both ranked in the top 5.
So I would say yes, probably the biggest game ever

In my 26 years this is bigger.

Football in general is bigger, though. So much bigger. More people, more money, more media--everything. No one gave a shite about the old Southwest Conference. And while in the Big 12, we failed to compete for a title during most of our membership. Hell Texas has only had big-time goals hinging on the game's outcome a handful of times in the last dozen or so years. During my lifetime the game has rarely had significant implications. It's just about bragging rights and occasionally (rarely) thwarting Texas' chances at a BCS bowl.

If TAMU wins this game, we immediately become the favorite to win the West. That alone has to put it above most any Texas game I can remember. Sure, Bonfire was significant--but only for TAMU and Texas. It didn't matter to anyone else. Same goes for 2011.

This is the biggest football game aTm has ever played. In fact, it will be bigger than they can handle. Expect at least 3 aTm turnovers and a couple of busted coverages for Bama TDs. Bama will do to aTm Saturday what Tejas did to them for a century.

Refresh my memory. I remember the bonfire falling a ways back. Who did you play that week? Was it Texas?

Yes, we played Texas the next game. We were #24 and they were #5.
