You'd stab your own grandmother in the back for A&M's backs or offensive line. With the players on our line, Baylor's one offensive weakness would be a strength.

Talking about a physical freak like Michael in the same breath as Sirr Parker is just asinine. Leeland McElroy didnt succeed in the NFL because of off the field issues.
You guys are too easy to get under the skin of, you can dish it out but you can't take it. You like to tell other people how bad they are but can't take it when you get called out for being a delusional and unsportsman homer.

By the way Baylor's "sea of crap" second stringers are destroying Texas Tech right now, enjoy your off season with the taste of mediocrity in your mouth before being destroyed in the SEC and put in exile in the state of Texas.

You don't have to like it, but you do have to come to terms with it.

What's delusional about me saying A&m is more talented than their record indicates? Nobody who knows college football would argue against that.

Texas Tech is awful with one of the worst statistical defenses in the country. Congrats?

And for the last time, you won't find one A&M fan who gives a crap whether or not Baylor, Tech and Texas want to pout in the corner and ignore us. We'll gladly pay UTEP, SMU, Rice and North Texas to come to Kyle and get killed every year. Baylor isnt the only school from Texas we'll have no problem beating by 30.

I don't have to do either because I simply don't care. It's a shame the Texas game has to end, but I'm not losing sleep over it. Odds are the game will resume one day anyway once both schools hire new leadership, much like many rivalries that have ended for a time only to resume. If not though, oh well.

I don't have to do either because I simply don't care. Hell, I'm honestly glad to be rid of Tech. Their fanbase is terrible. I'm indifferent to losing the baylor game. A couple of my good friends graduated from there, and it's apparently a much bigger deal to ya'll that the "Battle of the Brazos" is ending. Many A&M fans don't even know the rivalry has a name.
LOL, to a team with a 37-76-5 record against their "rival" UT.

The average margin of victory in the A&M/Texas game is 9 PPG. The average margin of victory in the A&M/Baylor series is 16 PPG. Those numbers go to 8 PPG and 19 PPG if we just factor in the lifetime of most of the posters on this site.

One rivalry has been one-sided in the modern era. The other has not.

Delusional, delusional delusional in all accounts. All that matters is wins and losses and living in the present and not the past, since your season is over and you past unimpressive and your future uninspiring it is little wonder you're clasping at straws and more interested in demeaning other programs, there is nothing to relish in your own, period.

But yay, if moral victories were a statistic i guess A&m would lead the field.

The bottom line is we were a military academy with a small athletic budget prior to the late 1960s. Since then, we are top 15 in wins and our record against Texas is hovering right around .500. Our record against Baylor is close to .800 in that time frame.

Bottom line is you're a sniveling disappointment that hypes up your accomplishments and bases your greatest successes on the Sherrill era that was rife with cheating that deserved the death penalty as it exceeded anything SMU was slammed for doing.

Our greatest success were during the RC era (more conference titles, wins, etc. than the Sherrill era), and every school in the SWC was on probation for cheating in the 1970s and 1980s, including Baylor, Texas and Tech. Grant Teaff was almost fired pending an investigation in 1986 that was ultimately dropped because paperwork had dissapeared. Rumors at Texas have always circulated than Royal's retirement in '76 was "forced" in return for the NCAA not looking further into the recruitment of several high profile guys including Earl Campbell and his infamous new Mustang.

Yes, A&M gave players money and cars. Find me a big football program that didnt. it doesnt excuse it, but no reason to single out any one program aside from SMU, who did things that went above and beyond. No other school has ever been proven to have a massive slush fund to that degree, nor has any program been proven to have had given that much money to that many athletes. The only program that has come close to what SMU was doing in the modern era was Miami. Bama had some pretty bad stuff too.

Whine, rinse and repeat, so in conclusion you're undistinguished but think you wear a crown.

Not at all. We've traditionally been nothing more than a very rich onlooker to the throne. I assert only that Baylor has traditionally played the role of court jester, meant for the amusement of kings and onlookers alike.

This Bear has fight.:D We are all collectively tired of hearing how great A&M thinks they are and simultaneously how ungracious they are in their attitude toward smaller programs.

Baylor is as Texan a school as it gets, regardless of it's private status and lack of oil money revenue, it was the first and only university founded by the Republic of Texas, and that's a bragging right that A&M and their eye rolling effort to assert themselves as the oldest school (and therefore some how the best) can't supplant.

I am thankful for the reinvigorated Big 12, one that resembles the height of the old SWC moreso than ever before, with the resurgence of Baylor and the addition of a a quality TCU program.

Why should I be grateful with regards to Baylor? They are lucky to even be in the Big XII and have provided very little in any major sport until the past three years. Thanks for the automatic win every year I suppose.

I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. Literally nobody is trying to say A&M is older than Baylor, nor does that mean anything. Who the **** cares if A&M or Texas or Baylor or whoever is older than the other? What a stupid thing to even discuss.

"Reinvigorated" in the same way Penn State's program was just "reinvigorated". Congrats on selling your soul for the right to eat the unwanted scraps off Deloss Dodd's table. I can't blame Texas for setting up a great gig for themselves, but I have no qualms with laughing at those so eager to be their ballboy.

I'm getting really, really sick of this game of conference musical chairs... I mean, when I read that Boise State wants to join the freakin' BIG EAST conference, I just shake my head...

In my dream world, conference realignment would be more by geographic bounds... put Texas, A&M, Tech, TCU, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Arkansas and Colorado in a conference... bring back the Southwest Conference name...

Then put UTEP, SMU, Rice, Houston, Tulsa, New Mexico, New Mexico State and Baylor in another conference... another team you might want to try to fit into this regional approach would be Colorado State... I'd appropriate the Western Athletic Conference for this one...

8 team conferences give you 7 league games, and 4 games you can schedule against outside competition... as an added bonus, you'd get a lot of natural rivalries... to me, that's the best approach... it would also cut down considerably on each team's travel expenses...

Either your mom didn't hug you growing up or you just are a very needlessly grouchy individual, any relation to this guy?

The problem is that there is just too much back room politicing for it to go down like this. You also have programs like Iowa State, Baylor, half the Big East, Duke, etc. who have no business being in BCS conferences in football but now that they are they will fight to the death to keep their AQ status.

Part of the reason I'm glad A&M ended up in the SEC is because of the stability. Nobody leaves that conference, and they arent trying to backroom each other. We already are having trouble putting up results on the field, might as well get a bigger paycheck and not worry about what will happen to the conference.

I just don't understand what the point of you fabricating a debate is. At least direct the fake indignation towards something relevant instead of which school opened first. That is literally the most idiotic thing anyone could ever argue about.

The fact you ran with an aside remark and made it the center piece of your present rant is more indicative of who monopolizes the idiocy.

It wasnt the centerpiece of anything, it made up a third of the post. Again though, you refused to continue discussing any issue originally presented after I challenge you on the matter. This is what you do, make a claim, I respond, and you ignore it and make another claim. Every now and then you throw in a blind insult towards a school superior to yours athletically and academically.
