Gladius Veritas:

Thanks for just validating everything I've posted. You can try to mock and belittle the facts but that doesn't change anything.

Here are the facts:

More wins, conference championships, national championships, bowl wins, heismans, money, facilities, educational prowess, size, etc, etc...

Yes, in the context of who is the better program, the overall record is the best measuring tool

KSU has an all-time winning record against Texas.

They've also played them 13 times

Bit of a difference between 13 and 66

So all time head-to-head record is the most reliable indicator of the better program except when it's not.

Got it.

Just saying after 66 games if you were the better program it would show on the field

More of the reason why arky fans make me

Let me emphasize again:

Oh hell - you know I'm just going to quote a large number of facts lending themselves to another fact that A&M > Arky

Sure, and my arbitrary standard says 13 is the lucky number -- especially when the brunt of those games occurred in a relatively recent window.

I mean, Texas's total wins, conference championships, MNCs, Heismans, etc. definitely don't carry weight in the analysis.

13 isn't enough games to determine that

66 is

Pretty simple

What about 17? UT owns Arky 13-4.



Given that fact, that trend will continue in the next 25 years.

A&M relegated to living vicariously through other teams

Well I'll be. Color me shocked
