However, for the most part Texas fans/alums stick their nose in the air and pompously proclaim that they are "The University of Texas" in a similar fashion as "The Ohio State" fans/alums.
If aggies wanna act like a little brother, then we will remind them of it

We are used to fighting for what we got here. Not everyone has gotten the privilege to play in a glorified conference USA style league their entire program 's history. Welcome to the big leagues now.

Sensible argument....like the graph, very interesting.
A similar argument arose back in 2009 when USC (University of Southern California) sued USC (University of South Carolina) over the trademark use of 'USC' on athletic apparel, etc.
THE USC won (Southern California) and to this day, South Carolina is prohibited from putting 'USC' on any apparel, hats, etc.; however, they may use 'SC' but must use different font styling, etc. Sounds silly, but it all has to do with image and....money.
Southern California wins trademark battle against South Carolina

You do have a point here.
The old Southwest Conference and current Big 12 are not to be compared with playing in the SEC either back then or today, day-in and day-out, year after year. Big difference, to be sure.

Texas has 4 national championships. Tennessee has 2. No one outside Knoxville recognizes Tennessee with more than two. Texas is the real UT.

It must get really tiring kissing your burnt orange master's arse all the time, sooner. This is why nobody respects you.
