Yell leaders are service guys, former military, future USMC guys, etc. They don't do cart wheels or somersaults. They command a 30,000 student body in loud arse yells during a game.
Your dork male cheerleaders are wearing ghey uniforms and prancing with megaphones and signs. no one pays attention to them.

a couple of hundred (300-500?) will show for the Columbia yell practice. Aggies are staying all over the state for a long weekend (Myrtle Beach, Charleston, etc) so there won't be a large contingent in Columbia on a Wednesday night. It's a 15 minute deal. no big "whoop"

Hardly a little brother. A&M's football history is less than Texas' but A&M has always been a major player in CFB.
As a university, there is nothing "little" about it:
Opened: 1876
Total Enrollment: 58,809
College Station Campus: 53,000
Undergraduates: 44,839
Graduate and Professional: 13,000
Rank: Among nation’s five largest
universities
Endowment: Ranks 4th among U.S. public universities and 10th overall with an endowment of
more than $5 billion
Texas A&M is the flagship of the Texas A&M University System – one of the largest systems of higher education in the nation, educating 131,000 students through a statewide network of 11 universities, seven agencies and two service units
Texas A&M Athletics has won a total of 17 team national championships. 12 are NCAA titles
Texas A&M has won a total of 161 team conference and tournament championships. 96 titles were won during play in the Southwest Conference (93 men's/3 women's) while 58 were won in Big 12 Conference play (19 men's/39 women's). Texas A&M has won 7 titles in the Southeastern Conference (2 men's/5 women's)

Don't get misled by the series record. For the first 20+ years, the game was always played in Austin or San Antonio. Plus the WWII years and 50s and 60s were tough on A&M and Texas racked up a ton of Ws in the series during those years.
Since the era of modern College Football (1972-present) and when A&M opened up allowing women and not requiring Corps membership, A&M is 19-20 vs Texas, with 8 Conference championships.
All that said, Texas will always be a major player in football. As stated above, they are a CFB blue blood. But there can be more than 1 dominant program in state - see UF/FSU/Mia, Aub/Bama

re: Nicest College Campuses in the SEC for recruits

you boys need to walk around more. the heart of A&M's campus is nice. you just can't access it on a drive by. Problem is no one ever decided on a architectural theme
re: A&M/LSU 6:30 Thanksgiving Night on ESPN
Posted by Texican on 6/23/14 at 12:21 pm
Thanksgiving has been a college football day for 100 years. A&M/Texas was a T-day battle forever. When the Big12 formed and f-ed it up for a few years, it was on Friday. Ole Miss/MSU then stole the evening of T-day for the Egg bowl. The Big 12 finally put A&M/Tex back on Thanksgiving in 2008

How horrible. A nationally televised game on ESPN on Thanksgiving night with the whole country watching because it's the only game on. What a dreadful tradition.
Certainly, playing in the afternoon on Black Friday is much better.

re: Football season ticket donations at your school
Posted by Texican on 2/27/13 at 3:56 pm
Clearly, Aggies are overpaying in both donation amounts and ticket prices compared to the other SEC schools.
I pay $1400 donation for two seats + 495 per seat ticket price = $2400 for two endzone seats. :wah:

ATM gives so many tix away to students.
A&M students pay $240 for season tickets and it's about to go up to $300. They aren't getting anything free.
Unfortunately, A&M charges its fan base and students more than other similar programs.

Sorry gators. An orange helmet with cursive writing on it is lame. UF should put their Gator head logo on the helmet.

JFF's team scored 2 TD's, +1 called back for a stupid penalty.
McCarron throws for 300 vs. a bad UT defense and gets high praise. JFF puts up 275 on one of the best defenses in the SEC in LSU and he sux? got it.
