We better make A&M pay up big time to get out of that series. They clearly have realized they can't regularly beat arkansas at a neutral site and are using the conference change-up as an excuse to get out of the game.

JerryWorld is fun. I just wish the prices were more reasonable.
I've been all three years and I've spent $750 on my 3 tickets alone.
Its a fun drunk-fest. Plus, we always win.

Death Star...

I want it home and home and it doesn't matter that we've lost. Arlington is far from nightlife and the logistics of tailgating for the game and going out in Uptown or Fort Worth is a bitch IMO.

The only thing I dislike about it is the prices.
Cotton Bowl tickets are cheaper than SW Classic tickets.
The split stadium is cool.

The price is also annoying. The stadium does look sweet though. I won't be mad if it stays there but I'd prefer it to be a home and home. I think y'all have a lot more to gain from it being in Jerryworld, especially since you will probably continue to beat our arse for the foreseeable future.

Fixed it for LSU in 1994
And expect the same results. We didn't get a dime from LSU and you aren't getting a dime from us.
Maybe we can set y'all up to play ULL at JerryWorld and they'll win to keep the similarities

The trip to Dallas means a lot more to Arkie fans. As far as Jerryworld I agree it's a yawner for college games. Just too big and distracting and the novelty is starting to wear off.
I hope they never move UT-OU there but sadly for that, money talks. The state fair is a huge part of it and much better than going to the Arlington Fridays before the game.

no we just think now that we are in the same conference it should be like every other conference game, and honestly I would really like to go to fayetville, the death star is crap for college games. but obviously arky wants the texas presence every year
Not to mention the 5 MILLION each, that both universities get for playing in Jerry's digs each season.
Once the contract has expired we'll be doing the home and home thing fo show!

I believe Petrino wants to keep it as is. Not sure what aTm wants. Be surprised if they want it moved. It was aTm who insisted on the high ticket prices so the athletic dept could repay the money borrowed from the general fund.

Alternate the game between Jerryworld ( the nicest stadium I've ever been in) and Little Rock (the biggest piece of shite stadium ever)

I'd be cool with this. I actually really like the Cowboys Stadium venue.

This is so odd...
During the Aggie to SEC press conference their Admin stated they wanted to keep the game in Jerry World and Arkansas wanted it moved to home and home.
Now it's Arkansas wants to keep the game and the Aggies want to move it to home and home.
Lots of politics going on at the moment.
In that SEC/Aggie press conference, the Aggies openly stated they wanted to play in Dallas because of the lost exposure in Dallas Metro area once the SWC folded. On top of they will not be playing TCU in the new Big12 next year for Dallas/Fort Worth exposure therefore judging by those statements why would the Aggies move it home?

Bobby said in his press conference the other day that he wants to keep in it Dallas but A&M wants to move it to home/home.

If ya'll were 3-0 against us at Jerry's world would you want the game to move to a home and home?
Honest answer please.
Yes. I hate JerryWorld and can't stand going to Dallas. I love going to Kyle Field and would love to make the trip to Fayetteville. JerryWorld kills the fun college atmosphere imo. So even if we had kicked your arse the past 3 years, I would def want it to be home and home.

Yep. I would be MUCH cooler with playing it at the CB if it wasnt going to home/home.

Which is the exact opposite of what TAMU said at the SEC press conference...
Politics.

Not up to us to decide. But the money sure is good the way it is right now.
Way I understand it is Petrino is fine with it staying in Dallas for duration of contract, aTm is not.
