re: SEC-Related: Did Alabama truly break Texas?

The greed and arrogance of Texas screwed them right along with Mack getting complacent and lazy. Coupled with that political infighting that went on between alums, the president and AD. It was just a terrible mess when there was a fighting faction over pushing Mack out. Those dumbasses should have joined the SEC with A&M. Now look at A&M getting the better players and doing some winning. Alabama has a way of ripping a fan bases heart out. However, that UT program did not get up off the mat and dust themselves off. Mack went from recruiting spread players to wanting to ground and pound after that game. Stupid! Colt might have kept it closer, he was a fierce competitor, but ultimately I think Bama would have won. But yes indeed the arrogance and greed of Texas has put a bad taste in a lot of college fans all across the country. Mack Brown really acted like a dumbass towards the end of his stint there.
