Yet, so much of the traditions of both teams were built from that rivalry. The history of Texas v. Texas A&M and the Red River Shootout shouldn't be so flippantly cast aside. Those games made those schools what they are today. Those games helped to mold the culture of the states of Texas and Oklahoma. To toss that out because you want to be more like Silicon Valley is short-sighted and unnecessary. You don't need to abandon your past to forge a brighter future. If you lose what you are along the way, what you attain becomes worthless and fleeting.
Texas and Texas A&M need to reunite. They should both be in the same conference, whatever conference that is.

OU will be following UT wherever they go. You are missing the point that OU and UT makes the decisions for their states not Aggy nor the SEC.
If Aggy wants to whistle Dixie and look like a football first university more power to them.
The Aggy UT rivarly was built on the fact that A&M was the biggest challenge to UT. When Aggy left the Big XII they left that position as the number 2 university in the state. As of today UT's rivarly with the three other Texas schools is more important.
Aggy is an outlier in Texas football like UTEP now.
UTEP is an isolated west Texas university kinda like how Aggy is an isolated university that represents east Texas or the Deep South behind the Pine Curtain part of Texas.
The rest of Texas on the west side of the Pine Curtain wants to move forward and make the state of Texas as great as it should be. That is not associating with schools in Alabama and Mississippi. That is associating with schools in California and Washington.
