Can you imagine how big Bama would have won if Donta Hightower, who is a better football player than Colt McCoy, wasn’t injured
Yep - replacing Hightower in the lineup early in the season with yet another 5* linebacker is the same as replacing your 2-time Heisman finalist QB in the National Championship game with a true freshman with 26 career pass attempts is exactly the same thing. What a douche.

Texas big money donors overreacting to Brown's dip in wins broke Texas. He had earned the right to try and turn it around. Instead their arrogant asses tried to poach Saban behind Brown's back and since they were so full of themselves they didn't anticipate him turning them down. They were left scrambling with no plan B ending up with Charlie Strong who they told to clean house but weren't willing to deal with the fallout that cleaning house does to a team. Now they have a narcissistic jackass who is every bit as entitled as the people who fired Brown running around like he's God's gift to football and is going to implode like a dying star.

You aren't lying. Some of them actually think they were about to hire Saban, but his agent screwed it up or something lmao

What is a "sip," is it just cryptic Aggy gibberish like "gig'em" or is there any deeper meaning?
Sip is a tea sipper. Years ago the wealthy Texans who could not either afford SMU or could not get into SMU sent their kids to Austin. Texas A&M was 99% all male, all military. The sissy boys went to Texas University (That was its official name back then.) Majors were either farming or engineering.
Poor people could go to college and have their education paid for by the military.
They had a relationship with Texas Women's University and both schools had regular functions together. There were a lot of marriages between TWU and Texas A&M.
The Texas University people acted like they were rich and thus sipped tea. aka acted like they were rich as SMU people.
One of the funniest signs I saw in the stands at a Texas University/SMU game back in the old SWC days. In the SMU study body side that had a huge sign the said "Our maids went to Texas. " Thus explains the Texas University inferiority feelings.
In those days under Darrell Royal, (and no limit on scholarships). Royal offered just about anyone who played Texas high school football a football scholarship.
Your choice of a state school was to take the Royal scholarship or go to A&M where you had to be in the Corp of Cadets.
In the early 60's women were admitted and today Texas A&M is the largest university in the state.
Thanks for asking.

So you’re saying you won your “three” (laugh) national championships with an all-CorpS football team?
So what’s the problem? Navy played Texas for the national title in 1963/4 and they had an all-military team.
P.S. — You had unlimited scholarships, too, and outrecruited Darrell Royal quite a bit in the late 60s, both in quantity and quality.
So much so, that your “poor little team” was on the cover of the ‘67 and ‘68 “bible of Texas football,” Dave Campbell’s Texas Football magazine.

Texas is going to be pretty good in 2020. Nobody on here wants to hear that, but it is probably true.
Posted on 5/10/20 at 9:49 pm to TxTiger82
And FWIW the reason I think that Texas will be good in 2020 is that they are the only team outside of the SEC, Clemson, and Ohio State to recruit Top 10 classes (per 247) in the past three recruiting cycles.
Herman has got talent. He's got a QB. He's even got a favorable schedule (it is basically a two-game regular season at LSU and vs. OU in the RRR). If Texas is going to have "their year" under Herman, this one is it.
So yea maybe Alabama broke Texas but that was a long time ago and Texas is probably back with a vengeance in 2020.

Not just football, they haven't finished in the top four nationally in baseball or basketball since WW2.

That game convinced Mack Brown to change from the spread to pro-style and it didn't work with the personnel they had. So yeah you could say that
I would say it was Will Muschamp fault! He seems to let the offense down even if he was not coaching the offense! That seem to follow the same thing everywhere he goes now!

Who cares? You’re a diploma mill with little brother syndrome. Counting enrollment from several different campuses to inflate your diploma mill status. I’d be ashamed if UT Austin cheapened my diploma to be the biggest university. That’s why enrollment has been capped for 30-plus years.
All those empty apartment complexes in College Station that are owned by his buddies is why your chancellor (a Democrat) is pushing to have school on campus in the fall, no matter what.

Interesting how our graduates make more $ on average than texas university graduates.

Aggy self-reported earnings. I’d take that with a boulder of maroon-colored salt.
How does the University of Houston fare with self-reported earnings, Daniel?
Imagine that

More accurate (but also imperfect) state-level data sets suggest that even the Payscale data on large universities may be way off. There are a handful of state-level systems that collect alumni salary data based on actual state tax records (Arkansas, Tennessee, Virginia, Colorado, and Texas). Just a few quick comparisons to actual wage data from Texas show that Payscale overestimates Texas A&M’s starting salary by almost $10,000 ($51,900 vs. $42,662) or 22%.

Taylor is a liar, as usual. I myself have said I would take a 100% healthy 2019 Alabama team to take on his "GOAT", and I thought they would win. I said I would take that Alabama team in the What IF thread, and take my chances vs LSU.
But I never guaranteed one, like Texas fans.

That’s not really hard to do. LSU breaking Miami is more impressive considering what Miami has done compared to Texas
