Yep...And I CANNOT wait to yank a knot in their Faggie asses after Georgia softens them up. It will be a beatdown / payback for the ages...

It's included on basic cable packages in Texas because A&M is in the SEC. With how much you post here and how long the SECN has existed it's mind boggling that you still don't seem to understand why A&M and to a lesser degree Mizzou are key to it's success for the conference.

Hmmm. Don’t know whether I’m more impressed with including Clemson as if A&M could only schedule them while in the SEC or
including the best SEC matchups and the worst Big XII.

Hope your psychologist is helping your overcome your prior conference obsession and enjoy cheering for Bama for championships.



I think he was saying he would rather be in a conference against the upper echelon of college football and not have guaranteed wins, than to have to play those teams in that other conference where wins are pretty much guaranteed.

But they weren't guaranteed for A&M.
Not like you were much of anything in the Big 12.

As much as I don’t care for Kevin sumlin, his teams would have won 9-10 in the Big 12 yearly. Fran isn’t walking through that door.

Outside of Clemson that OOC schedule is hot garbage. I’d be pissed if I were an aggy.

A&M accepted losing to Texas & OU. Routinely losing to TTech & Baylor, finishing 4th or 5th in the B12-SOUTH, and having to take shite from their neighbors and fans at work was just too much.

As you well know by know, Aggy would rather lose to the elite than beat a team their supposed to beat.

It really is one of the toughest schedules ever. Only guaranteed win is at LSU.

Hey EKG, I heard something this year that said year 3 is usually a fall back year for new coaches. The show I was listening to listed many coaching careers that supported it. I believe it was during a discussion about Virginia Tech.

Not trying to troll you, just sharing what I heard (of course it means absolutely nothing).

Everybody that plays in the SEC West has a brutal schedule.

State picks up Tennessee next year, so they catch a break on the schedule.

Really?

Let's examine this:

Nick Saban: Michigan State year 3 (7-5), LSU year 3 (NATIONAL CHAMPION), Alabama year 3 (NATIONAL CHAMPION)

Urban Meyer: Florida year 3 (9-4, after winning the title the previous year, won the title the following year), Ohio State year 3 (NATIONAL CHAMPION)

Jimbo Fisher: Florida State year 3 (12-2, National Champion in year 4)

Mack Brown: Tulane year 3 (6-6), North Carolina year 3 (6-4-1), t.u. year 3 (9-3)

Les Miles: Oklahoma State year 3 (9-4), LSU year 3 (NATIONAL CHAMPION)

Dabo Swinney: Year 3 (6-7)

Out of all the aforementioned coaches, the ONLY one in which you could consider year 3 a fallback year would be in the case of Dabo Swinney.

Routinely losing to TTech & Baylor


You need to look up the word "routinely" again.

From 1985-present, A&M lost to Baylor a total of 3 times.

Over that same timespan, t.u. has lost to Baylor a total of 10 times.

finishing 4th or 5th in the B12-SOUTH


Over the 15-year timespan that the Big 12 had two divisions, A&M finished worse than third only 5 times.

If A&M beats Clemson it changes all narratives... also it’s insane to think even if a miracle happened and they win the West they’d finish with @GA, @LSU, and likely Georgia in the championship game.

It's not unprecedented.

Look at 2000 Oklahoma's schedule.

We'll see what they're made of. That open date before Bama at home is huge. But @ Clemson, @ Georgia and @ LSU?

It's time for good ol' Jimbo U. to make a statement.
