I have absolutely no idea what any of that has to do with how UT was turned into A&Ms child over the entire realignment process

Anyone that’s visited both campuses in the last 5 years will tell you that A&M has vastly surpassed its little poorer brother in austin

Let's be honest, the game has never been the caliber of Bama-Auburn, tOSU-Michigan, and no where close to Texas-OU. UT and A&M have rarely been really good at the same time.

Neither side misses it as much as initially thought. The OU game has always meant a lot more, and continues to for Texas fans... as far as the direction of the season.


And this shite is why we will never play regularly again.

Ironic you should post about windmills when one of your own (Randolph Duke) is the living embodiment of Don Quixote.

Right. Keep telling us how dead it is and how much you don’t care about it. Just yell it from the mountain tops. Maybe if you and your brethren post about it a couple million more times, the message will be clear: YOURE OVER IT.

2017: Texas reportedly asked other Big 12 teams to not schedule Texas A&M, either


Damn not only is Texas a bitch, they have a stable in the rest of the Big 12, apparently.

stronghorns used Baylor as their stepchild to sue us when we announced we were joining the SEC.

Texas A&M has 5200 acres, stronghorns have 430 acres which is maxed out.

The future top tier growth in Texas will all be in College Station. We already have 15,000 more students on campus than they do.

Within 5 years the little/big brother controversy will have been settled.

I actually like the city of Austin.

But I think, when it comes to football, A&M is on a better path.

And, this is from my limited perspective, the problem with Texas seems like they try to bully or cower the rest of the Big 12 into submission. The problem there is, when a bully loses sway, they are in for some serious trouble.

City is good despite the political issues

But the campus is hot garbage, it’s nasty and trashy. In a few years UH will be nicer even.

The game only benefits Texas because they are a shithole wanna be relevant program that acts like they won a national championship by defeating an unprepared, ill coached, unmotivated UGA.

It Texas A&M beats Texas it is the same as beating Maryland or Kansas. It Texas beats Texas A&M it is a big deal!

Deloss Dodds is the worthless POS that canceled the game.

I speak for all Aggies when I say TUCK FEXAS!!!

Why would Texas A&M want to play a worthless second tier (can't beat Maryland) POS school? Everyone says we shouldn't play FCS schools (or those that play like an FCS school).

You stay with titty twisting Tom and get butt raped once or twice a year. We are just fine with Jimbo and without the Cal Berkley Cocks for Glocks shite college in central Texas!

Take a look at the head to head record after 1983. You might be surprised. Since 2005 A&M has accomplished much more than tu and has replaced tu as the flagship program of the state.


You dipshit realize we won the national championship in 2006 right?? And played for another one. Wtf has aggy done??

aTm has no clout in Texas. In Houston the aggies are still using 610 As their hurricane escape route.

bigbopper, you are coming to an SEC forum to stir shite about a series that has ended.

Why don't you go back to a big12 forum and discuss your program with people that are actually interested.

Over here all you are doing is irritating people.

We honestly just do not care about you any more.

Congratulations on your Sugar Bowl win.

What has TX done this decade again? You had your chance to keep the game in 2011 and 2012 and said no. You don't get to dictate to us what we can do or when you will play us. It isn't our fault your home schedule sucks.

Damn i hate UGA for laying an egg this week. Now we have to listen to the most pompous, arrogant fanbase in the country, next to ND, drone on and on. Fvxk Kirby Smart

I’m gonna go out on a limb here, but guess that an acre in the heart of Austin might be worth just slightly more than an acre in nothingville. College Station is strip malls, crappy chain restaurants, gulag college buildings, and student housing.
Do you think more students from Texas go to CS for a fun weekend away or the other way around? No one wants to be in your college town- businesses, adults, non-mouthbreathing students, etc. It sucks.
