Maybe you haven't noticed but we are doing just fine without you guys, let us know if you need a loan.

If my home schedule consisted of half of

Baylor
Iowa State
Kansas
Kansas State
Oklahoma State
TCU
Texas Tech
and West Virginia

I would be begging A&M to play me too.

Look, you can have a civil conversation with me, but that is probably because I live in CO and don't have to deal with your t-shirt trash fans on a daily basis either

I like most of the sip fans I know


Every school that is good has t-shirt fans. You guys should schedule TTech in Lubbock to remind you what real trash is.

Other than that I like your post.

We don't care about the good ones.

We care about the Longhorn T-Shirt fans who never darkened a doorway of any college but who want to act superior to a degree holding Aggie because they team they root for and have little real affiliation with is better at football historically.

Or actually frick those guys. They are easy to write off.

The real problem is actual goddamn Texas Exs who want to pretend that their program is as good as Bama, or that OU is the "real rival" and anything VS A&M was a waste of their time.

I remember well those games in Lubbock - I still remember those pizza dorks trying to ram their goal posts into the visitors section after one of their big wins

They are definitely trashy.

Except TEXAS Longhorn program is the premier program in the state of Texas and no argument
LSU, Alabama, Florida, Tenn and Arkansas are the premier programs in their state

I can see why the Aggies want to run from playing the Longhorns every year

A Texas v A&M matchup would be the biggest in-season, non-conference game of the year

It's a travesty that this game isn't played

It used to. And you went .500 before you even got to the real teams in your division.

Bickering about who was wrong and right with the Big 12 divorce and who is and isn’t good aside, the Texas/A&M game was always fun for me to watch as an outsider and I would be delighted to see it renewed. It’s a good rivalry for college football and aggy has potential to make it more competitive than it has ever been with SEC recruiting

I’d prefer “send A&M back to the Big 12”

I would love to see it back - I miss it. However, for better or worse probably will not happen again until DeLoss Dodds croaks.

That is what really sucks about the Big 12. It’s full of sneaky good programs like Okie Lite or TCU that will beat you any given week, but when you beat these teams you don’t get a fraction of the credit nationally compared to beating a mid level SEC team like Arky.

The Big 12 is like a media hype black hole. For a program like Texas whose brand can get overexposed it’s great. For A&M it was a recruiting death sentence.

Your record agains Texas is as bad As Tulane versus LSU. I can understand why the horns do not intend to bring it back.

Check out the record in modern times, after scholarship limits were imposed. It is much more even then

The game is almost a decade removed.

Younger Ags like myself don’t care. Bama, Lsu, Arkansas and Auburn are all bigger games to me

I hope the game is never played again. It eats at them.

In my lifetime we are right at .500 vs texass. This so called domination has to go back 50+ years to start leaning heavily in texass favor.

what happened in 1907 is just not that important to me.

This is an inflated stat due to the stadium renovation.

There's nothing "sneaky good" about Stillwater aggie. They've been good for years now.

Your lack of ability to attract media exposure in the BIG XII is nobody's fault but your own. If anything, it is the overexposure of the SEC that has allowed you to even remotely sniff a top 10 recruiting class in spite of continued mediocrity.

Big 12 please take Tam back. They just don’t fit in the SEC. There are too many snowflakes and trannies at that school. We want Clemson or FSU which the SEC should have gone after. So please take them back to theBig12.

300 yards and 14 points.


Um you must have had that lobotomy. LSU's defense held them to 250 yards and 25 points. muffed punt on the 20 and a pix 6. a small handful of lucky plays. if you actually would have watched the game, you'd see that it really wasn't close. LSU had 45 mins possession to their 15.
