I didn’t expect a Dawg fan to bring this up. Your team’s inability to handle business in New Orleans was the sole reason UT had momentum headed into this year.

They beat OU last year and played them tough in Arlington, and won a Sugar Bowl. That last one caps off a season that the media latched on to and have UT some deserved hype.

Simply put, they’ve shite the bed.

This all could have been avoided if UGa handled business.

I’d love to beat those arrogant, overrated little bitches. We’d cream them if the two teams played

We actually improve throughout the year, because our coach isn’t inept

Now compare the two conferences. They would be a .500 team in the SEC west.

Texas didn't have any problems spanking that bullpup arse.

Why would you do this to yourself?

There are heady stats to be sure but as a MENSA-Sponsored team I'm confident that we've already poured through the numbers and predict a 15-0 season next year.

So it looks like this started before A&M joined the SEC

So you don't have causation or correlation .

Also, too many of those frickers still view college football through the lens of the late 1960s, when texas was pretty much the only show in town.


Better than the 1930’s which was the last time y’all were good

Yep. They could always count on an Aggie win. Now it’s back to the drawing board.

So if Texas was in the west instead of A&M. I feel Texas could handle the Miss schools and arky. Miss state and Arky are two of the worst FBS teams in any conference this year. Auburn would be slightly favored so I will count them as a loss. We know Bama and LSU are losses. If Texas drew Vandy, Kentucky, Tenner, Mizzou or SCAR they would be heavily favored, all of those teams are having down years. Also if they were just moved to the west they would get a few years of only cupcake out of conference scheduling, just like A&M did. The SEC gets an extra cupcake in November compared to Big 12 so thats a major help.
So, cupcakes plus the 3 bad west schools is already 7 wins, if they draw easy east schools thats already 9 wins, we know they could be competitive with UGA so its not like theres an auto loss in the East even if they did get unlucky. Win a bowl game and they finish 10-3.

When you really look at the numbers, having 4 out of conference games really makes it a lot easier for mediocre teams to get an "impressive" record

Lurked a Texas board earlier and some people were saying they didn’t wanna be a “win at all costs” school because academics are very important to the university. They said they wanted a coach who would make them good but not cheat or sacrifice their morals. Yeah, good luck with that. If they quit cheating they would explain why they suck. Don’t they know everyone is cheating their asses off.

We've been playing Bama, LSU, Auburn, Florida, Clemson, and the MS schools in some of their best years in recent memory. Texas has been playing Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa State, etc.


So, aggy is better at losing and no conference championships in the SEC than in the big12. You should be very proud.

Usually I would agree, but TCU, Baylor, and Okie State have better coaches than Texas.


So does Iowa State.

And then on the same board, I'm sure they were begging to hire Urban Meyer.

What about all the resources A&M has? Unlike Texas, they haven't won shite since WW2, just the 1998 Big 12 title
