    USC is still USC man. They made a crap hire with Kiffin and the sanctions hurt them. 6-3 this year and Orgeron is doing a good job of coaching them up.

    No one watched because it was a farce that those two teams were playing again. That matchup had just happened a couple months earlier. A lot of people made it a point not to watch on purpose. Texas v. Alabama had a great rating and who knows how many people tuned out once Colt got hurt and figured it was over.

    I am sometimes mistaken, but I am never wrong.

    2014 A&M schedule is lame....


    only 3 good games

    Auburn
    LSU
    South Carolina, who knows how good they will even be.
    Missouri



    Texas in 2014 has

    UCLA
    BYU - Who is quietly sitting at 6-2
    Oklahoma
    Baylor - who will be loaded again
    Oklahoma State
    Tech - who returns a lot


    Hell North Texas could win their conference, Kansas State will be back
    Lol. You forgot Alabama. It's funny how you as so sure of byu and tech yet question if South Carolina will be any good.

    You are completely blinded by you bias.

When you look at the bigger picture, especially since scholarship restrictions, the a&m and UT series has been really close to. 500.
    In fact, I went back and looked at some win totals since 1973 when the scholarships restrictions kicked in

    Up to the brown era in Austin, ut had won 197 games and A&M had won 203. So basically from 73-98, A&M won more games by a pretty good margin.

    You are an idiot.

    There are currently 4 teams in the top 10 that are on A&M's schedule for next year and South Carloina is ranked around 15. It may well be considered the toughest schedule in the nation.

    Including Tech as a good team is a joke. They like Baylor have played no one and will likely have 4-5 losses by the end of the year. UCLA loses their best player and BYU has yet to beat a good team.

    Generally speaking, the BCS national championship game garners pretty good ratings, regardless of the teams playing.

    Don't forget the conference upgrades of TCU and West Virginia.

    Texas plays those two juggernauts next year as well.

    I think one of the best arguments for why UT and A&M should play each year is this thread!
