Not that important. The last one was in CS so the next one should be in Austin, but it would be a nice power play to make them come here.

We won't be able to make the schedules work without dropping someone and having to play a full SECW plus 2 P5 OOC. I can't see that happening. I actually don't think that will even be a thing because they'll be here well before 2025. Big 12 gunna blow up.

It doesn't really matter, but the disrespect it would show would piss me off. But we'll kick their arse either way.

That doesn't matter at all. We played like 10 more games in Austin.

I think we should make them open on the road

That way, there are only NINE more games in Austin...

plus, public perception is that the Texas Aggies are eating a shite sandwich

or, make the 1st game in Dallas, just not in Austin...

I kinda hope we play them in Austin first. We are superior right now and I want to beat them at their house. But I really don't care where we beat them.

I really want it to be in College Station. But it won't matter that first game at Kyle is going to be fricking awesome. When that drumline starts it's going to be fricking nuts.

It's not really that important to me where the first game back is played. As long as they do home and home and no neutral site bs

“ We played like 10 more games in Austin.”
I think it’s more than that.

Edit: you are right. Stat I’m seeing is 60-49.

I would prefer it at Kyle but not a huge deal

While that's true and I understand the reasoning I'd argue that since 60 our games have been in Austin compared to 49 in College Station we should start off in College Station. (rest of series is 4 in San Antonio, 4 in Houston, 1 in Dallas)

In fact, they should have the play the next 11 games in BCS. Fair is fair.

As for overall record

College Station - 22-25-2
Austin - 12-48
Houston - 2-2
San Antonio - 0-3-1
Dallas - 0-0-1

Until I looked this up I had no idea that more than half our wins in Austin have been in my lifetime. On one hand sucks arse but on the other shows just how different the series has been in most current poster's lifetime.

I don't think it will be in Austin. If it is it will be a slap back from the powers that be in the SEC.

Can you imagine the open cans of shite the Aggies will eat if the first meeting is in Austin? SEC Rant has been bad enough.

It should be in College Station. They are coming into our league. We are going to kick their arse anywhere.

The only thing I really care about is Jimbo never taking his foot off the fricking gas. I want a triple-digit to nothing arse rape. And then, I want a midfield brawl a la 1995 (when I was a freshman).
