An A&m fan in that thread yesterday the reason for the crappy teams they have now are because of the futures against Oregon and USC

I figured this might be a problem with some future games, as many teams are scheduled out to 2017. However, I haven't seen a date on when that's going to start, or which yrs will be affected, if any yet.

Looks like posters aren't reading the link:

Was cowardice -- known as savvy scheduling in some parts -- to blame? Perhaps, but it sounds like things have been pretty complicated from a logistical side for A&M. From the Houston Chronicle: Those games are no longer part of A&M's plans, [A&M AD Eric] Hyman said, because "having switched from the Big 12 to the SEC, we've had to scrub our whole schedule - throw it almost out. Going forward, we've had conversations with people, but we really can't be contractually (obligated) until the conference says you've got the green light." Slive said this week, moving forward, he intends for SEC schools to first receive their league game dates and then schedule non-conference contests around those.


We originally had those games scheduled when we ALSO were going to have Arkansas as an OOC game. Now we're catching grief because we're trying to be flexible for the good of the conference?
