Your OOC isn't even close to theirs. Glad you think so though, I'd expect nothing less from your delusions.
We play a lot of the same schools OOC as them... Notre Dame... UCLA... Before our schedule got screwed up we played Arkansas... a school they also play OOC...

You really are putting a lot of stock in the two series vs Maryland and Cal ehh?
Again, the average Texas fans are not going to care much about those two. Take those away and its pretty much a wash year to year.

Yeah when comparing to Western Carolina, ULL and New fricking Mexico.

Let's compare them year-by-year to see if they're actually comparable.
2015
A&M: vs. ASU (Houston), Ball St., Nevada, WCU
Texas: @ND, Rice, Cal
2016
A&M: UCLA, Louisiana Tech, UTSA, Rice
Texas: Notre Dame, UTEP, @Cal
2017
A&M: @UCLA, ULL, New Mexico
Texas: Maryland, UCF, @USC
2018
A&M: Clemson
Texas: @Maryland, Tulsa, USC
2019
A&M: @Clemson, UTSA, @Rice
Texas: USF, LSU
Other future games
A&M: Home and home with CU-Boulder, home and home with ND
Texas: @LSU, @Arkansas, home and home with Ohio St., home and home with Michigan, home and home with USF
I mean Texas pretty clearly has the better OOC schedule, but they have to because they aren't in the SEC. A&M is definitely stepping up their OOC schedule, but Texas is scheduling 2 Power 5 schools every year, and it is always including one big game.

They started 3 5 stars (juniors and seniors) in the front 7 last year. Didnt they give up like 50 points to Iowa State?

Yall started like 6 or 7 over the course of 2 years and still haven't fielded a top 100 D.

On defense? Pretty sure Myles Garrett was our first 5 star defensive player ever.

Like I have been saying, they HAVE to do that b/c their fans really don't care about most of their potential conference home games. Even then they aren't going to care for most P5 teams that they can get to come in. The OU game being in Dallas really screws their home slate when it comes to home games their fans will care about.
Also, I expect our OOC to eventually pick up 2 P5s a year. It's just a bitch balancing that due to the damn Arkansas game being trapped at JerryWorld until f-ing 2024 as it severely reduces the amount of teams it makes it possible to work with. (its why we lost the Oregon game for example)

I remember that game with the white mormon QB in the knee brace shredding that Strong defense.

It's like a junior high in this thread

When they can beat Arkansas, we'll consider it.

I realize that no one cares about actual context for OOC scheduling, but you know that A&M wasn't trying to avoid scheduling good OOC opponents, right?
In 2009, in an 8 game Big 12 slate, A&M scheduled a 10 game neutral site series with an SEC team. Locked in for 10 years with an SEC team in Arkansas. Most teams schedule 2 game series, 4 game series? Well... A&M who is supposedly scared of power 5(at the time power 6) opponents scheduled a 10 game series with Arkansas.
Around that same time in 2009 we scheduled(beginning in 2011) a 4 game home and home series with SMU. As a Georgia fan, who now use the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party's neutral site game, and Georgia Tech's home and home nature to bitch and moan about staying at 8 conference games, this of particular interest, I'll get to later.
So. Back to 2010. Nebraska and Colorado leave the Big 12. A 9th conference game gets added. Including Arkansas that means only two powderpuffs are on the schedule for Texas A&M.
The following year in 2012, A&M joins the SEC. The 10 year contract with Arkansas becomes a conference game meaning.... we drop overall number of conference games AND lose an OOC contract with a power 5 opponent. To make matters worse, the 4 year contract with SMU is still in effect. Arkansas agrees to make the Jerry World game a home and home for two seasons(for a 3 year extension on the current Jerry World agreement) to help us with our situation as they know we were stuck in a shite creek. We even had to agree to play AT Louisiana Tech because everyone's schedules were so full.

Why aren't LSU posters complaining about this being on the wrong board?
