Since joining the SEC, #TAMU is 51-25 in Kevin Sumlin's six seasons there--only Bama, LSU & UGA has won more games in the league. In the six seasons before, the Aggies were 42-34.


From Bruce Feldman.

Your all time win % is .602. Sumlin is 51-25 (.671).

You’ve won your conference once in the last 20 years. The SEC is tougher than that shite conference you left, and even in the Big 12 you weren’t good enough.

You guys are just too good at sucking and Sumlin isn’t really that bad.

The Big 12 was better than the SEC in the early late 90s / early 00s. Don't @ me.

No it was not. It was Oklahoma and Texas and that is it. The SEC was Florida and UT during the 90s with Bama and Auburn being pretty damn tough. From 2000 it's been all SEC.

all fanbases should have expectations to win, win regularly, and win conference titles and natty.

While else do you play the game?

Money. Most programs don't have a shot at a championship and they know it.

The Big 12 won national titles in the late 90’s, 2000 and 2005. aTm only played for the conference title twice in that stretch. You just aren’t that good.

I concur.
Better yet, we ought to abandon football altogether.
There’s just no need for that kind of fun.
If a school doesn’t regularly win a conference (or national) championship, why bother?
Thanks, friend.

And Nebraska, Colorado, K-State, & A&M we’re all doing well.

Sumlin is a good a good coach. He is going to bowl games playing decent. He is at A&M for fricks sake. No one wins there.

Bruce Feldman is not an objective reporter when it comes to Kevin Sumlin.

Here's a stat for you: Kevin Sumlin is 3-12 against Division Opponents at home.

Compare that to R.C. Slocum (13-4), Dennis Franchione (7-6), and Mike Sherman (4-6).

Here's another stat: Against POWER 5 OPPONENTS, Kevin Sumlin is 30-25.

Sumlin needs to go to UCLA before they realize how shitty of a coach he is.

Cue the meh face from TexAgs. Yeah we're supposed to be content with mediocrity. That's why we spent a billion dollars in facility upgrades. We don't cheat enough IMO. Maybe that will change with new coach.

If he is so shitty why is A&M winning more with him than before against likely tougher competition? He is by no means elite of course, but solid he is.

Outside of the Johnny Football years (a player he didn't recruit) he has been nothing but average to below average. If it wasn't for that his arse would already be gone.

Should be something like 60-16 if he was a good coach

Here's Sumlin's record WITHOUT Manziel:

31-19 (15-16)

Take away non-power 5 opponents and that record becomes 18-19
