re: Texas vs Texas A&M

Don't get misled by the series record. For the first 20+ years, the game was always played in Austin or San Antonio. Plus the WWII years and 50s and 60s were tough on A&M and Texas racked up a ton of Ws in the series during those years.

Since the era of modern College Football (1972-present) and when A&M opened up allowing women and not requiring Corps membership, A&M is 19-20 vs Texas, with 8 Conference championships.

All that said, Texas will always be a major player in football. As stated above, they are a CFB blue blood. But there can be more than 1 dominant program in state - see UF/FSU/Mia, Aub/Bama
