SEC adds Texas...A&M upset the most?


Sure, A&M would like it the least. Won't happen for a number of reasons.

In general, texass only wins when they have a lot more talent on their side of the ball. In Big 12 the only team with similar physical talent has been OU.. and then A&M. OU has 7 Big 12 titles, Texass has 3 (1 of them was a 3 way tie). Can anyone in the SEC rant imagine if LSU, BAMA, had texass schedule right now year in and year out. OU, Okie St, and for now Baylor are the only tough games on the schedule. The OU game is the only one with similar athletes.

Texass would never ever consider adding LSU, BAMA, A&M, Auburn, etc... to their schedule since they will not be able to get out of the OU series. They already lost the annual A&M game and losing the OU game would be another PR disaster among the fanbase.

The biggest reason texass won't join the SEC is their psyche requires that they be the big fish in the pond. SEC is loaded with big fish, and big influence. Texass will not come to the table if they don't have a lot of say.

TV - Not sure the SEC benefits much from TV by adding texass. Highest TV rankings for A&M are in the Austin area already.

LHN - SEC will not accept this. Texass will have to admit this was a bad idea from the beginning. They don't like to admit they were wrong. Their fanbase knows it.

Superiority complex - They consider SEC below them academically and intellectually. If they do anything it will be with the PAC.

They painted themselves into quite a corner...
