When your parents brought you home from the hospital your first day do you think they knew you'd one day be on an SEC message board talking down other colleges all the while having a picture of an A&M Ken doll getting a blow job as your sig pic? It's hard to tell at so young an age what heights a child will achieve, but when I was able to walk, talk and read on time they knew for sure I wasn't headed to Tech.
At what age did you try your first glory hole?

An oldie but goodie:
For reference.
The streak is over.
The combined domination added up to nearly 70 years (Tektards finally beat us in tennis).
The guidelines:
Must be a team sport with head to head competition(no track, golf, etc. in which we own the tards anyway)
In sports with multiple games in a season, scoreboard goes to series winner. Regular season only for simplification.
If a series ties, scoreboard remains with the last team to win.

As you can see, the last loss in a team sport came in baseball, the next was '08 in football. Tard has been unusually impotent against the Ags the last several years.
In fact, here are the raw, gruesome, unfiltered numbers for A&M:
1,046 - number of days since last loss against Tech in anything
1,1216 - number of days since last loss against tech in football
98 - total number of games/competitions going back that A&M has held scoreboard over Tech in all sports
3,891 - number of days A&M has held scoreboard over tech in soccer
12 - Average win margin over Tech in basketball
22,030 - number of consecutive days A&M has held scoreboard over tech cumulatively in all sports(ie 1046 in baseball + 1216 in football etc.)
22,030 days = 60.2 years
15 - Average margin of victory over tech in football during that span
9/9 - A&M currently holds scoreboard over tech in all 9 team sports
51 - number of BigXII titles for A&M
11 - number of BigXII titles for tech
11 - number of national championships for A&M during 3 year span
1 - number of national championships for tech in their history
*This information is old but was current when the thread started*

**Bonus Academic information and rankings**
Texas A&M - AAU Member Research University. Land, Space, and Sea Grant Institution. 48,000 students. Major contracts with the Department of Defense, Energy, and Homeland Security Department.
Texas Tech - No prestigious national academic affiliations. 36,000 students
Endowment
A&M - $6 Billion
Tech - $434 Million
Annual Research Expenditures
A&M - $652 Million(more than Tech's entire endowment)
Tech - $27 Million(less than they spend on their awful athletics program)
Annual Research Expenditures in science and engineering
A&M - $600 Million(3rd nationally behind MIT and Berkeley)
Tech - $27 Million or less(no data)
