I like A&M, been to a few games when I was stationed at Hood. Great having you guys in the SEC. University of Texas can go frick themselves they are never welcome I hope they get hit with the death penalty.


When I was a kid, those Arkansas vs. Texas A&M were a big, big deal. Back when they played the old Southwest Classic. Was a great rivalry with a long tradition.

I actually would love for Arkansas to have a legitimate rival in the SEC, of which they have a history with for nearly a century.

A&M made the best athletic decision in the history of their program to join the SEC. We are the premiere conference. None compare. The future of A&M looks so bright, it's nearly blinding. The draw of the SEC to kids is going to sink UT. They will rue the day they got to greedy and neutered the Big XII.

They had some good rivalries, like the Nebraska/OU game, and they lost it because of their greed. OU is slipping and UT is dropping like a rock.

The irony is... OU played their cards right. Were never arrogant and still remain an extremely sought after program. There is a slight possibility for OU to one day join the SEC. There is zero for Texas.

Look no further than the spokesman for each program:

Mack Brown: "We should win a national championship in two or three years."

Kevin Sumlin: "I've said that from the beginning, we're in the best league in the country for football and as new guys to the league we've got to prove ourselves. I think our guys understand that, I think as coaches we understand it."



Sumlin has been extremely tight-lipped about his successes. He hasn't bragged, only said that they believed they had a lot to prove. He's not out there talking about national championships. He's talking about making the SEC believe they made the right choice in selecting them.

I mean... come on. You gotta like that.

As long as Boone Pickens is alive and his money flows in and around Oklahoma, Oklahoma is saddled with the "cowboy problem".
