Agree, I think they have a losing record all-time in the Big12 conference.

Also believe they have much more upside in football than Ark. If they can get the right coach and some admin support they, they will be able to sell TX recruits on SEC. Arkansas, not so much.

Arkansas hasn't lost to a team that doesn't have significant NCAA questions since 2009

All that upside and yet Arkansas still holds a 40-24 series lead over them.

So TAMU has winning records against Ole Miss and Georgia.

Coach Bryant's only heisman winner. The trophy or a copy is located in the Bryant Museum.

One of the best examples of an excuse I've ever seen.

How many of those games were played while both teams were in the SEC? That's kinda my point, when I said upside.

Ill add one thing to your list...Von Miller Butkus award winner 2010.

No A&M is not an elite program by any means, but I think you could say we are a top20 program.

The really shitty thing is we had a good run for about three decades before the fran era hit and then we just tanked the last decade.


I truly think going to the SEC will elevate our program in due time.

They kind of had that whole Texas thing to sell when we were the only school in the conference not in Texas and yet we still beat them with regularity.

Cheshire, how many times have you posted that stat? It would save you time if you just incorporated into your sig pic.

And congrats Arkansas. You are the first SEC school to be Agsessed

Well, we know Ohio state cheated..


Auburn.. I think it's pretty clear and the Willie Lyles stuff isn't going to help them.


Alabama.... I think we clearly should have paid attention when heralded running back Trent Ardson changed his name on signing with them.

All those victories over us and we still won more SWC titles than you did. Too bad y'all couldn't beat Texas when y'all beat us like we could
