Hmmmm.
You’ve given me food for thought.

I don’t think you’re affiliated in any way w UTex.
But there’s zero doubt in my mind you’d support them over A&M.


You’re wrong about some of what you say (and right about some).
But again—your business.
I was curious, that’s all.

Top 4!!! Very Important!!!


Well it says CWS semis anyway so top 2 in a poll wouldn't work for that metric. This has been tested before many times it looks like.

Quit claiming the 1970 NC or SHUT THE frick UP, BITCH!!!





I mean... I guess Texas can only claim 3 national championships... yet that wouldn't change the fact that Texas has made to top 4 in all three of those sports since 1940, and A&M's total is still a bagel

Top 4 is kind of an important marker in football these days.

Is your photo supposed to symbolize that Bregman wearing an A&M hat is the greatest thing to ever happen to that poor program with next to no accomplishments?

No, guess he is just a fan of the program. We enjoy the support.

Who said it mattered? I am just correcting the lies in the title.

Aggie has never done a number on anyone. That’s literally what this thread is about

No it’s not. I’ve never considered aTm to be a good program. Other than a few random seasons of relative success they’ve been nothing.

But why does that resonate with you in any way?
I couldn’t care less whether another team wins or loses (though I was tickled to see LSU best Clemson this year).
What’s your take?

Eta: I lied. I always enjoy seeing UTex lose. I’m not proud of it, but that’s the truth.

Imagine arbitrarily choosing top 4 instead of top 5

Dude, it's not "arbitrary", it was done to exclude A&M.

That doesn't invalidate the analysis, it's still true, A&M hasn't finished top 4 of anything since the War.
