You should learn why it was scheduled before posting. Trying to help you.

I was just on the interactive map, less than 500 free seats remain, and the waiting list hasn't begun selection yet.

Sorry you're wrong...again

Here's a question for you .....would you want Texas playing aTm's schedule this season?

Seriously, would you want Texas opening with UCLA, then @Auburn, Arkansas, @ SoCarolina, Tennessee, @ Alabama, @ MSU, OleMiss and wrap up the season with LSU??

Are we pretending that A&M has a larger fan base than Texas? or could t fill a 100k seat stadium?

Will have a larger alumni base within the next 15 years and has a FAR MORE LOYAL fan base.

They haven't for the last three seasons.

Texas and OU play ND CAL tOSU and Houston non conference. Aggie would lose to 3 of the 4 teams on that list.

Oklahoma always makes an effort to have a quality non-conference schedule. Texas not so much.

Funny how the tsip runs away when you remind him that their AD sent 5,000 tickets to Groupon for every home game

He's just gathering his facts, Randolph Duke-style. Look for another dissertation about how Earl Rudder didn't actually scale the cliffs of Point du Hoc or about how A&M were nothing more than draft dodgers during WW2 or about how I, by posting on this forum, am taking valuable bandwidth away from servicemembers downrange.

I still don't get how having UCLA and 3 shitty opponents is any different then LSU or a majority of the rest of the SEC schedule.....

Bama - USC, Western Kentucky, Kent State, Chatanooga -
LSU - Wisconsin, Jacksonville state, southern miss, south alabama
Arkansas - Louisiana Tech, TCU, Texas State, Alcorn
Auburn - Clemson, arkansas state, ULM, Alabama A&M

I stopped looking anymore up because surely my point has been made. So frick the rest of you.

So netted out:

If you're SECSEC, you can be complete pussies in terms of scheduling OOC.

A&M and MSU happen to be the biggest pussies this year. Will likely change next year.

Is not a big deal at all as long as SEC puts a team into the playoffs.

I will say this. USC put like 50 on us ten years ago or so. It was something like 50-0. That's quite a blow for a football team trying to be relevant. Just sayin. If Alabama will schedule Ohio State I'll shut up and bow down.

Well then you are pitiful at using the Internet, Grandpa.

There's 1,700 seats available in the "North Bench" (top end zone) that only require a $25 contribution and a $25 donation to the capital campaign. Best news about that is that $25 is payable over five years...

There's 1,350 in the south end zone, same story.

I guess the deal-breaker was the terms of repaying that $25 over five years? But seriously, it's probably that your football team is returning to its mediocre-to-poor status.

I thought all you wonderfully loyal aggies would snap up those seats? What's the deal, Sarge?

Do you need a shot of burnt-orange Viagra, and is your administration making overtures to TEXAS to continue the series?

Poor aggy. Brainwashed about being sold out in "2015 and beyond"... that didn't last long.

Here they are being defensive (as usual) on TexAgs and cutting into LSU fans.
