Aggies lost the annual game with us from all the NCAA sanctions during the period they keep referring to as their glory years. 7 Years of NCAA sanctions, lack of institutional control in '88 and '94, 2 years of bowl bans, and a year of TV ban from the NCAA violations A&M committed between 1983-1992( LINK / ) is why we stopped the series. Those violations earned A&M the title of 3rd dirtiest program of all time title and combined with SMU's death penalty killed the SWC.

Its funny how people always bring up how many teams in the SWC from that period were under sanctions, and conveniently leave out how the NCAA infractions committee was controlled by a Texas grad. No conference has ever been so penalized for beating one team in the history of the NCAA. They even granted Texas retroactive immunity for all past infractions, known or unknown; a unique event in all of college sports.
