Forgive me for thinking that y'alls rivalry constituted a tradition, considering how much y'all fricking hate each other.


You're forgiven. The tradition is playing on Thanksgiving. DGAF who it's against.

So we told lsu what they were going to do that day.

Obviously, your definition of a rival is your prerogative.

I would consider Alabama and Auburn/Tennessee rivals even if some combination of the teams left the conference for whatever reason.

Texas used to be our rival. The rivalry is now dormant.

We no longer play them. Have no plans on doing so in the future. And the three teams we played from the state of Texas this year are bigger threats to us in recruiting than they are. So yea

No. There is no such a thing as a "gadget program."

Just wish A&M wasn't so scared to play Texas


you really don't know what you are talking about. it is not the aggies that won't play the big 12 schools in tejas, it is tejas, Baylor and tt that refuse to play the aggies in ANY sport.

titty baby stuff. they are "punishing" the aggies for not being "texas" enough. the aggies are supposed to know their place. and their place is to do what tejas u tells them to do.

Solid grind, I wish there were Texas fans here so that the appropriate apoplexy could be had.

bookmarking this for 15 years down the road when different people run the b12 (or it doesn't exist) and texas and tamu are playing each other again.

I play the long game like you wont believe.

If anything, Texas is a 'gadget' program with all those Thujone comics.

That is because Alabama respects its rivalries and its rivals, even if no one else does (like the Tenn game).

That is what separates a Bama from a Texas. With Texas if you suck for a while or don't follow orders they will cut you lose. They no longer play 2 of their 3 biggest rivalry games, AND they forced the last rival they have to quit THEIR big annual rivalry game. No rivalry is sacred in Austin, so frick em.

I'm not even grinding. Neither side is just that interested anymore. They have said that for years, and now with our move, we agree with them

Wouldn't be if ya'll weren't scared of Texas. Sad because A&M could probably beat them now and cut into that 40 game series deficit.
