So your only reason that A&M should bring back the game is "because the SEC East does it"? Yeah - that's not a reason why Texas A&M should play the game. Try again.
Texas A&M has all of the momentum between the two schools. They have nothing to gain from playing this game. Texas has nothing to lose for playing the game. Why play into their hands?

As canvassed before.
It’s the biggest rivalry in the biggest football state in the country.
30 million TV sets along with huge amounts of money. And your easy way out is,
“We have momentum”.
And by the way: that is you saying you don’t want any. Not the other way around.
You said it. Not me. You’re being honest I can tell.

I look forward to the next time we face them in a bowl game, but there is absolutely no benefit from us scheduling them during the regular season. If you can't see it from A&M's perspective, then I don't know what to tell you.
Currently Texas A&M absolutely has the momentum over Texas:
-More on-field success in recent years
-Better head coach (and better head coaching stability)
-Recruiting edge the past few seasons
Do you dispute any of the above?

Aggies are so far behind in the football series there really isn’t a point. Totally lopsided rivalry.

You’ve settled it
You fear losing that momentum you finally have even though you have zero divisions under ya’ belt. That’s your momentum. Debate is over boys.

Have you ever even done business before? If one side is taking on all of the risk, and the other side has none of the risk, that's a bad deal!

You asked if I disputed any of the above.
I agree. You have huge momentum. Best momentum since 1939. Or even 98.
You’re riding that momentum and don’t want to lose it. That’s your answer. Not mine.
You fear losing that momentum by losing to Texas…playing them would not lose it. Beating them would not lose it.
But playing them with the FEAR of losing is why, as you’ve put “immense pressure from your fanbase” on aggy leaders to not play the game.
You all have said it.
Debate settled. You desire greatly to avoid a challenge.
Dispute that.

Yes, but any great program can have a down year, right? Just like 2020 LSU.
If A&M agrees to start playing Texas in a certain year, and A&M just so happens to look like 2020 LSU that season, BAM! All the momentum is gone just because you had a down year that season.
That's a hypothetical that hopefully you can relate to.

What exactly has A&M done that shows momentum? Win anything just once and you may be able to say that with a straight face.
Texas and A&M are taylor made for each other...all hat and no cattle. Even Texas' hayday was due to a bullshite championship of the state of Texas through a rediculously uncompetitive SWC.

just as I said. The “intellectual” one of the bunch JUST ADMITTED it is, in fact, fear.
I’d ask you do dispute that, but you just agreed with it.
And what you mentioned is NOT a hypothetical. LSU had its worst season. And you’re comparing us to you? A team with no skins on the wall?
LSU has three titles in 20 years. You haven’t even won a division. Yet Missouri has. Yet Arky did three times. This is where you need to put out a bat signal, quick-like, for west coast, lobo and Texag to start trolling with an urgency. I can’t believe they sent a boy to do the man’s work when it came to intellectual heavy lifting.
Send the group email for help, immediately

And from a business perspective, it does not make sense. We've already gone over that. If one side of a business transaction is taking on way more risk than the other side, why go through with the transaction? Can you dispute that?
By the way, why isn't ULL on your schedule? Is it fear?

3rd time in as many thread admitting it’s fear. I don’t see anyone that’s not scared of something mentioning the word RISK. quote:oh no. I get it. You’re the weekend crew. You need lobotomy or Texag, like NOW.

ETA.
There he is

Also - what do you mean by "win anything"? I'm guessing an Orange Bowl victory doesn't fall under that label, despite "win anything" being pretty vague. Am I right?

Not a realistic competitor for LSU. A&M has lost to ULL in the not so distant past though.
Posted on 5/15/21 at 12:12 pm to dstone12
Hm... you avoided the ULL question. Must be so scared of them that you don't want to even mention them.

That loss happened 4 years before LSU lost to UAB at home so it almost qualifies as distant past.

The weekend intellectual crew is JUST as bad as the Monday thru Friday group that got undressed by xWing.
Send out the help signal……like now, my boy
Serious, you need help,now. Get the metroatlanta gator or someone to tap in for you.

Jesus. 28 pages of this nonsense. Anyone still posting in the shitfest needs to log off and go outside.
You probably really need to get laid, but going outside is at least a good start.
