Can someone please explain to me why we need to play anyone?
Because your AD told them to?

Give Charlie a couple of years and he will have the long horns back

Sure. Texas A&M and Texas need to play because the fans would love it and it would be not just nationally televised but nationally watched.

Apparently your AD runs the whole show. Figured he could get this straight right quick and in a hurry.

Still don't follow in regards to why we need to play anyone
Posted on 12/1/14 at 1:20 pm to Wolfhound45
It isn't among the younger ags and horns

Because your AD is boss?
Okay, all kidding aside, you really do not want to play in a bowl game? Seriously?
Best of luck on your finals.

Clemson-Carolina isn't a rivalry. Same goes for Auburn-Alabama and OSU-Michigan.

I'd like to kick their asses for sure. IDGAF where or when.

If I was the aggies I would be dying to play texas in a bowl this year. A&M could beat the longhorns this year and maybe that would be the kickstart to them playing each other again.
Really, and it would take away the sting of that last loss.

You obviously didn't grow up in Texas

So much misinformation and BS.
A&M is not ducking tu. A&M did not contact the SEC officers and try to prevent a match up. 2 years ago tu did try to block a potential match up. It never materialized with the standings anyway. A&M offered to continue the series when we left for the SEC. tu had no room left. tu and co attempted a boycott of A&M. Both teams filled their schedules. That is about as much as there is too it. A&M plays LSU. tu plays TTU/TCU. End of story.

Ags haven't refused to play, it's just some conjecture from a hack reporter without basis.
2012 - the longhorns were avoiding playing the Ags. Fortunately for them, A&M won enough games so that they got to play the Big 12 conf champ in the Cotton Bowl. And horns rooted for their "arch rival" to win that game
If y'all don't understand Texas politics, that's fine. Just don't pretend that you do...
