It’s a great rivalry
It's really not.
There have been only 14 seasons in which both schools finished ranked in the AP poll. Both schools have NEVER finished the season in the top 10 at the same time.

It’s not that Texas is afraid to play Texas A&M. OK, maybe that’s exactly it because the Longhorns wouldn’t be that petty, would they?

I guess that makes the Egg Bowl not a great rivalry either? The best part of these type of games is that it doesn’t matter how good or bad the teams are. The hatred between the two schools makes a fun atmosphere that is great to take in as a casual third party fan.

frick both Texas and A&M
That said, I always enjoyed watching that rivalry
Y’all kiss up or make out or whatever you Texans do with each other and play the damn game.

A&M was supposed to play them in the Cotton Bowl after the 2012 season. Both Mack Brown and DeLoss Dodds told the Cotton Bowl they would refuse to play if A&M was the opponent.
Sumlin called off the dogs on Oklahoma in the 4th quarter (was 41-13 early 4th). If it was t.u. it may have been worse than 77-0.
Blah bla blah bla Texas: “whorns” blah blah, deloss frikin dodds blah blah, sumlin, blah blah, from this one random year we have a good record against them bla blah
Blah blah it’s not a good rivalry because we DO NOT want to play them, blah blah

Pull an Auburn, drop a team and free your schedule up. Aubs did it to FSU not once, but TWICE!

I’m ready for some Aggie vs Horns football. Should be played yearly. Good ole fashioned hate.

Ok but you can’t use the “our schedules are full” excuse when you refuse to play each other in bowl games
Our SEC HQ decides , outside of the top 4, what SEC team goes to which bowl after the other teams have been selected to give us the best chance of winning. They’ve been protecting aggy from playing Texas in order to not embarrass the SEC. Thats why they played NC in the Orange Bowl. It’s in the best interest of the rest of the conference.

North Carolina was the better team.
The Tar Heels were ranked #14; UTex was #20.

Can someone go into the intricacies of why they refuse to play each other in FB? I’m sure both teams blame the other for not playing.

Meanwhile BYU and Coastal played on 2 days notice lol.
Does it really need to be explained how that is completely different or are you just playing dumb?
