about not caring whether we play Texas
I would estimate that 90% of Ags over the age of 25 would love to revive the game as an annual OOC affair, e.g. Florida/FSU or Clemson/USCe.
If nothing else, playing them would lower the volume of the complaints renour OOC schedule.

I was 24 at the time of the SEC move. Losing the Texas game was my only regret at the time. I thought I would miss it more as the years went by.
The opposite has happened. I truly do not give a frick if we never play them annually again. Let them meet us in the postseason if they're good enough to get there. From a marketing, recruiting, and practical standpoint, there is no advantage to playing them ever again. Not to mention having to deal with having to be better than them AND the refs. Not interested in breathing life into their pittance of a schedule by putting ourselves on it.

I don't give a frick about this, either. Plenty of other notable OOC teams we can play other than some big12 also-ran.
