From 1958 to 1982 Arkansas and A&M played every year and the Ag's only won 5.
Woof.

Probably not, Arkansas plays them before they implode in November, unfortunately.

It is odder than that.
For all the "ownage" Arkansas had for us in the SWC, they sure didn't get much mileage out of it. SWC titles tells a totally different story:
SWC Titles
==========
Arkansas: 14 titles (7 of them outright)
A&M: 17 titles (15 of them outright)
A&M from post WWII to the late 60s were historic Kansas State/South Carolina bad with just a couple of years of exceptions. It just seems that Arkansas would have been able to win more SWC titles than A&M (and especially more outright titles). Texas owned that conference with 25 titles (19 outright).
Makes a lot more sense when you realize that just like against Texass, if the game with Arkansas was of any significance to a SWC championship, Arkansas was required to beat aTm or Texas, and the guys with the flags and whistles. Saw it many times, in all major sports.

No doubt- pretty sure it's the polar opposite of koolaid and rainbows now- more like arsenic and tsunamis.

Exactly. Remember that Arkansas alum calling those two mystery pass interference calls in the endzone in the late 80s to ensure an Arky win?
The refs in that league were just plain bad to everyone if you watched long enough.

Arky beats Aggy, Aggy beats LSU, then the world explodes.

LOL. Somebody post up a pic of the old SWC map, and tell us who the refs in that conference usually screwed.

You gotta be smoking crack if you think we got any special treatment in the SWC. We were at the extreme other end of that spectrum with you. Those decisions were made with money printed in Austin.

Lets not act like aTm wouldn't do just fine when the Longhorns sucked so bad they didn't have a chance. You know as well as I do that Arkansas winning anything in the SWC was an affront to all things Texass.
To the OP, no. We'll find a way to lose to the Aggies. It's becoming a tradition.

Thats nothing special. Texas A&M was a small all male military academy until the 70's.
A lot of big games were always played as the visitor. Bear Bryant was scheduling home games in Houston.

All I know is I'm glad we won't have to see Garrett and Hall go up against our porous OL again like last year

It's called blowing leads the last 3 years still can't figure out how we've let these clucks off the hook. We also played them 3 or 4 times right before they joined the SEC and smoked them like we used too. This year they will get their arse handed to them book it, Bret has this one circled 3 times and Aubby twice.

3x, blowout in 09, 1 TD in 10, and 4 pts in 11....
In 09 we went 6-7 and our only big12 wins were tech, baylor, and ISU. Crowing about that game is like us talking about beating you 58-10 in '12 lol. Kansas State beat us by more points for Gods sake.

Aggies lost a ton but Arkansas lost just as much as the Aggies did in terms of talent
