1939

The reason we aren't playing them isn't due to scheduling, if we wanted to play them we could make it happen in about 10 minutes. We don't want to play them because of recruiting, they play in a garbage conference and get little national attention. They desperately need a game that matters, especially to Texas high school football players. If A&M played the game they would have everything to lose almost nothing to gain, so we have decided not to play. You could say that we're scared and that might be partially true because a loss to them would hurt, it would not only be a loss on the field but it would be a huge gain for Texas even if they lose the game.
