I know we're the newbies here. But just how important is Bama/UT that the rest of the conference has to bend over backwards? Right now it looks like it will be 12 years before you play in some cross division stadiums. That stinks.

Here's an idea, if the game is that precious to you, play an OOC Bama/UT game when it's not on the conference schedule. This is done in college baseball to fill out the schedule and boost rpi.

An Aggie would know all about when to let go of an old, tired rivalry.

Some rivalries are gonna die, albeit slowly. One of the negatives of expansion.

Gumps get very defensive if you talk about splitting up their rival with UT.

Big 4, get over it. Alabama and Tennessee will play every year as long as the SEC exists.

The hatred Bama feels toward UT burns with the strength of a thousand glowing suns.

All of the Bama people I personally know hate UT much more than they hate Auburn.

UT vs Bama Is one of the best rivalries in the country. You want us to change that for your crappy newbie program? Know your place. We'll be going to a 9 game schedule soon anyway.

It was also done for UGA vs Auburn. It never would have had been done if we didnt get the new shite teams from the Texas conference anyway. Learn some history jackass. I dislike this expansion more and more daily.

Any game A&M plays is nowhere as important as The Deep Souths Oldest Rivalry.

The biggest concession UA/UT will make is deigning to play on a day other than TSIO. The schedule makers should be thankful for that.
