re: I read that Tom Herman wants to renew the TAMU and Texas rivalry.

I don’t believe that tu is genuinely interested in renewing the series. They offered to play us in 22/23 when we already have a home and home with Miami. In fact, they wanted us to cancel the Miami game, or play us the week after. So those years we would have had two P5 OOC games in September before starting SEC play. They offered this know what we’d say. We were open 6 years later, but they had no interest to looking at those dates. So they basically offered 22/23 knowing we’d decline.

If tu was truly interested in renewing the series, it would renew ASAP on Thanksgiving. The SEC has set up the schedules of A&M/LSU and Arkansas/Missouri to easily accommodate the renewals of A&M/tu and Missouri//Kansas, by simply putting LSU/Arkansas back in that weekend. The SEC has done everything it could have to accommodate the renewal of these games.

With that being said, I wanted the series to continue OOC when we joined the SEC. now I simply don’t care, and I don’t really miss playing them. I think as time goes on peiple will care less and less about renewing it.
