I would argue that the best team in the west, defending national champion Alabama, is the biggest game on our schedule. LSU is a firm second best on the list though.

In the context of "rivalry," LSU and Arkansas are both bigger rivals of A&M than Alabama.

And FWIW, LSU won the SEC West in 2011.

LSU...yes. Pigs, maybe, but they still lack the "coolness" of Bama because of the shared coaches.

During our time in the Big XII, OU was never the biggest game on our schedule, even though their winning tradition was greater than tu's.


LSU is the biggest game on schedule. They are our new primary rivalry, and even when we are sucking, beating them will make it a winning season. I can't say the same for Bama. I just don't care about beating them as much as LSU, and 99 percent of Aggies feel the same way, I promise.

LSU is the most anticipated game on A&M's schedule and it's not even close.

We get y'all after a bye week too. If we are decent this year (remains to be seen) I could see a CB repeat. We jump up early to be out athleted later

I'll be drunk. Somebody will have to fill me in on Sunday who won

Well it would take you well over a decade to get your record at Kyle Field anywhere close to decent.

You swamp kittens seem to forget that you are 1-7-1 all time at the Home of the 12th Man.

I went to quite a a few of the TAM games in tiger stadium.Then Arkansas was added to the schedule to try and make a rilvary .Arkansas is no rilvary just a place to pull over and urinate on my trips north.I always remembered the Alabama games when the Bear was coach and later the A+M games.The A+M games were great for our recruiting in Texas.We also played rice for a number of years and i was told to help recruiting in the Houston area.Then if you look back at some of the Tiger greats qute a few in that era were from Texas.
