Head to Head
Arkansas took 2/3 AT aTm


A&M was superior vs the rest of the SEC & vs non conference opponents. Arkansas was superior head to head and in the postseason. The overall record (includes postseason) clearly shows A&M was better by having 10 more wins and 11 fewer losses. When it came down to the just the postseason, I think its pretty clear Ark ended up with an easier road and then went on to make it one "round" further. That said I think its worth considered. Ultimately I think I'd trade season because as I said before Omaha is Omaha. Maybe if A&M was able to win a conference title I would think otherwise.

I can't argue with you. I think both programs had seasons to be pleased with looking ahead. Arkansas with a slight edge because we made it to Omaha but the Aggies have nothing to be ashamed of.
