Winning the SEC West is a much greater feat than winning a conference title in any conference. If Arkansas were in the Big 12 north then they would have been in the title game 4 out of every 5 seasons with Nutt as coach. Winning the big 12 is equivilent to a 6-2 3rd place finish in the SEC.

Winning the SEC West now is. The Big 12 South was arguably stronger in most years in the late 90's and early 00's.

I think for the most part the A&M fans, at least the one's on here, have a realistic view of what they are getting to with the SEC. They know that there is going to be a learning curve ahead for them.

Now the Mizzou fans are a whole different ball game. Numerous calls to win the East next year and apparently Henry Josey is going to be the best RB in the SEC next year.

aTm decided it was more comfortable to take our long hard cocks at home than in Dallas, so they broke the contract.

All this means is their assholes will be twice as wide as normal when leaving Fayetteville.

Is that accurate or did the SEC tell them to make it home and home.

Edit: Found a non-arrogant hog fan.

smh.

Accurate. SEC didn't want to get involved with where our game was played and basically told the ads to figure it out themselves.

I don't understand why they would want to move away from Dallas then.

So Florida was told to take to Gainsville then the following year take it in Athens?

Because they think it is like a home game for us and Kyle field has some sort of magical elven powers that will give them the edge to win.

I think after this year's crowd was about 55/45 Arkansas fans (I'm being generous), they feared a turn out in '12 of about 70/30 Arkansas fans.

That's pretty killer. I have looked at a few properties there and over near Walker Park. That area is gradually improving and getting more expensive.

My granny used to refer to it as "n-word holler", which I guess is what it was called in the 1940s.

Both schools were to make 5 million per and it's fallen short.

I don't blame you guys for being pissed, though. You already have a hard enough time getting the stud Texas recruits. Good luck with your Jerry World replacement. I'm sort of looking forward to visiting Fayetteville (after Tuscaloosa, BR, and the grove of course).

Because aTm couldn't sale tickets after they requested a lubriciously high ticket price, a price higher than the cotton bowl, because their school needed the money.
