You are completely avoiding the reasoning for an uncapitalized "t.u." Pulling a program out of the past that says "Texas University"' doesn't explain shite.
Bahahaha when did I even talk about capitalizing? Glad you have to change the subject because I showed that you are hard R retarded.

It would follow that if you called a school by a name discounting its status as the main state university (what you mean by "t.u. means just another Texas university" -- your own words), that you discount that status.
Constitutional branch -- This is true.
Blacks and women couldn't attend for nearlyn100 years --Also,true.
Poooooor aggy.

I think you are really confused by the subject matter of this thread. You're out of your league, aggy.

You do realize that UTex excluded blacks for almost 70 years? Admitting them a whole 7 years earlier than A&M (1956 and 1963). In both instances it’s sad that took place but don’t point the finger at A&M without also looking in the mirror at your own university.

"For half of UT’s 135-year existence, the university did not admit African American students. Our history of exclusion and segregation, gives us a responsibility to stand as champions of the educational benefits of diversity.

Blacks and women, meaning only white males, attending a compulsory military school that didn't become a full-fledged university until 1963.
Yet a major chip on their shoulder that they should be the main state university of Texas.
It's all so laughable.

Definitely not just an all white male university... although African American students and women were not admitted until the 1960s, there were Hispanic and international students graduating from A&M as early as the 1800s and early 1900s.
Here are just a few examples

1923: First Japanese student to play football in the Southwest Conference.

MSU posters post more about A&M than Ole Miss. What’s wrong with y’all?
It's quite simple...A&M posters are bigger assholes than OM.

Whatever. Nevertheless, never was, never intended to be and never will be The University of Texas.

Seems like Ags obsess over the Horns. That is indeed true.
1. Ags will claim UT referred to themselves as Texas University. That is true as well.
2. Horns will contend that A&M was started as a branch of the University of Texas. While true, Ags will then say that is ancient history.
Is that not the same as the ancient historical practice of UT referring to themselves as Texas University?
I find that something like that would be more juvenile than insulting. To each his own, I guess.

The All time series in football is so lopsided they did A&M a favor by cancelling the game. Is that the most lopsided series by instate rivals other than Oklahoma and Oklahoma State?

I disagree, the amount of disdain in this thread has made for a fun read

Then stop being so butthurt about it.
Your fight song is literally, “texas Fight! texas Fight! And it’s goodbye to A&M!”
Y’all are obsessed with us and it’s creepy. Start worrying more about Kansas and Iowa State instead of Aggy.

I’m sure Clemson and the Citadel is lopsided too. Once A&M stopped being an all-male military academy we own tu. Since 75, A&M has dominated tu, and it’s not really close.
