I'm going to assume that if we compare like for like colleges/degrees - Business School, STEM, etc. UT is probably ahead - again I'm just guessing.

So maybe UT score has been diluted by all the non-business and non-STEM degrees they offer that result in a much lower ROI.

Because salary outcomes seems to be the big disconnect between the scores of the two schools.

UTex could be ahead in specific majors - I don’t have the numbers. But by what margin? It’s obviously not enough to move the needle in their methodology.

The size of the student body at both schools is large and comparable… so the logical takeaway is that there is a higher percentage of A&M students graduating with better salaries.

Yep. Lots of very prestigious UT grads out there every day engaging in very important high level discussions about classic art and literature and their impacts on society during the down times while their drive through lines aren't too terribly long.
