re: Is Texas A&M the biggest "little brother" of them all?

In the Big12, they still lost but they belonged

I'd dispute this line.

College football is all about talking s**t, and we all enjoy it. All fan-bases have been tagged with one overly broad label or another. It's all one big inside joke we get to appreciate.

With A&M, the bizarre and eccentric things people mock are real. The male cheerleaders, the public mutual masturbation, the sexual assault of vulnerable and innocent animals, the disturbing rituals of the corp of cadets, these aren't contrived stories created to poke fun at A&M, these are real and celebrated parts of their culture.

Everyone in the Big 12 was freaked out by them. People knock Texas for looking out for our own self interests, fine. No one in the Big 12 embraced the weirdness of the aggies.
