Fiesta, no question about it. Public perception is that we ran away from the sips to get out of their shadow. We even heard that here. There is no need to saddle up next to the bovines at all and let them feel the warmth of our well earned spotlight.

Go to the bigger bowl, have a higher national exposure footprint, and win our bowl for the Ags and the SEC.

To be clear, I didn't hear from any Aggie fan that they would specifically rather play Texas than go to the Fiesta Bowl - just that they wished they were playing Texas this year.

So far, sounds like Fiesta at-large would be more desired by Aggies here than the chance to humble Texas in a lesser bowl.

If given the opportunity, definitely the Fiesta Bowl. BCS Bowl >>> Cotton Bowl, even if the whorns play in the Cotton

Though I will admit, in the mean time it is has been very entertaining listening to sips say they would decline a cotton bowl invite against us.


How much would Mack Brown have a say in this?

Bigger bowl game preferably. Have to win out to get to a BCS bowl so not overlooking anyone

I hope we never play the longhorns again. Eff them, we've got two scores to settle with lsu and bama is going to want to return the favor next year, who needs them.

We changed conferences, so we'd rather not go to a big 12 bowl. Cap One against Michigan would be awesome, but we will probably (understandably) get passed over for that one if Georgia is still available.

Have to win out


I respect the humility and political correctness but A&M has Sam Houston State to get over the hangover and finishes with Missouri - both at home.

Not flaming Missouri but winning out isn't going to be a problem that keeps A&M from consideration for a BCS bowl.

going to the fiesta in our first year of the SEC probably humbles those austin dbags just as much as beating them by 50 in the co-bo would.

Fiesta +1

Like most others, I'm all for beating the sips in the CB only IF the Fiesta Bowl passes on us.
