you spout every stat under the sun on this board, except head to head. it's hilarious how you avoid mentioning it like the plague.
I have no problem addressing it. A&M was a service academy until the 1960s. Our athletic department was at best an after thought for 90 years. A lot of schools racked up a ton of wins on us from the 1800s until the 1970s.
Our football history has a very large and abysmal gap. I don't lose too much sleep over sucking before my father was even born, though.

why? they haven't been that many times. in fact, some schools haven't ever been there, including A&M. Congrats, you're now grouped in with:

That hurts.
Not really.

Aggies are fun.
They were a small military college back in the day, they always say.
Their best decade against Arkansas was the 1940s.
A&M also won more than half of their SWC titles prior to 1950.
They'll dance around it, but 41-25 is pretty clear. So is 1 out of the last 4.

How sad. You know nothing about your own program!
Texas A&M yearly results when service academy schools won championships. Texas A&M won a lot of games before 1960.

You even trying to brag about recruiting being the second largest school in the state of Texas is too funny. You don't need a single player from another state to finish in the top in recruiting despite y'all almost NEVER do regardless of the league you reside in.
That is pathetic! You and Texas are the most underachieving schools in all of college football. It is always a blast to make fun up the Aggies with all the advantages and such a lopsided series against the Hogs.
Texas A&M finished #43 in 2007. How the hell is this even possible when you are 45 mins from Houston? You finished #8 in 2005 and will finish #8 again this year. Talk about underachieving while even remotely trying to brag as a school inside the state of Texas is comical.

Surely Arkansas has a lot of things to be proud of. I hope to hear about them some day.

These are my favorite aggie stats. Their best years are the ones they use for recent excuses.

Arkansas' class will finish as the 11th best in the SEC and 7th best in the West.

A&M began allocating a comparable amount of money towards the athletic program as Texas in 1969. In the 20 seasons prior to that, we won one conference title and averaged less than five wins a year. The first five years after werent much better. Since 1974, we've win ten conference titles and even with our poor ten year run prior to this year averaged nearly 8 wins per year.
To argue the cause/effect relationship here is intellectually dishonest at best.

Our best years were 1985-1999, a fifteen year run which saw only four programs win more games, one program with a better home record and 9/15 conference titles. We accomplished more in that fifteen year period than we had in our entire history combined prior. And yeah, nobody cares about going 10-0 in 1919 or a 1939 national title.
You're just flat out ignoring facts.

reminder: the Aggies are not concerned about Arkansas' recruiting. Clearly.

Why should we be?

You mistake passing amusement for concern. Your fanbase as a whole is just remarkably insecure and fun to screw with. Not everyone bites so easily.
