It's about the rivalry, not the quality of the teams. All the stuff that goes on between the academies and their student bodies prior to the game is next-level. 

Nothing approaches that rivalry.

Yeah, maybe Barstool means rivalry across all mediums -- football, other sports, academically, culturally, etc? I dunno because if that's just the football games between the two teams on there, this list is a HUGE swing-and-miss.

I was told Stewart wasn't leaving....

https://texags.com/forums/5/topics/3422953

He's apparently playing , not transferring , not going on the bus , is his NIL that good or just wanting to avoid injury ? That's a lot of missed games with no background

I actually back and forth on this. It almost should be on its own list . 

The game itself is OK, but the pageantry is in a world of its own 

I think the thing is, almost everyone has a close relative who is either active or retired Army or Navy. With many having both in the same family.

Gotta think it’s Elko, right?  

Elko is the pragmatic reasonable hire but when have those buffoons been pragmatic or reasonable?

If the timeline listed above is right then odds are it isn't DeBoer or Lanning. That then drops it into the Fisch, Elko, Traylor zone.

Unfortunately our pie in the sky dreams of Dabo, Deion, Kiffin, or Riley are likely a bust.

Man, we’re 11-1 and appear to still be on the way up.  In the meantime, aggy busted the piggy bank open and still can’t lock down a coach.  I’m glad I’m not one of those ducking idiots

Rest assured our arrival next year is a large part of why they pressed the panic switch and hog tied themselves once again ceding leverage to some coach and his agent. They cannot help themselves it is what their DNA mandates.

Kiffin

If it’s Kiffin, he’s gonna be extremely expensive. Theyre already paying Jumbo $10MM/season (I know it works out differently because of the buyout structure but that’s the easiest way I know to describe it) so what would a guy who is already making $9MM demand from aggy?

What I’ve learned in the Texas Tech/Texas game thread on Texags:

-Texas would get killed if they played Bama now
-No way does Texas own the 9th hardest SOS (despite the ESPN metrics)
-Just wait til they face SEC competition!
-Sips have played BDF cupcakes while A&M has faced murderers row
- Even Aggys can no longer deny that they represent a suckage on a level never seen before

They're correct. According to Massey, Texas has the second most difficult schedule.

Seeing a lot of Mark Stoops smoke this morning. No way aggy is this dumb right?

Yup picking up steam. Some writer mentioned Stoops’ name a few weeks ago and said he’s not big time enough for A&M but would be a good hire.

Would be…interesting fa sho

They are getting roasted on XM 84 college Gameday with Bobby Carpenter and Chris Plank

 

”just like to show they can spend money”

”meme for spending money and winning nothing”

”1 season with 10 or more wins since 1999”

”if you already have something rolling and are already in the big 10 or sec, why would you start over at A&M?”

”a&m isn’t even #1 in their state—that’s Texas”

Stoops recently got an extension through 2030 and is making almost $9 mil a season. Not sure that jives with what bjork is peddling. If it’s stoops, they’re gonna pay through the nose for another coach and this one can’t even point to a mnc.

$8.6 million a year through 2031, with a $4 million buyout. To match that aggy is going to have to go with $9 million a year for 8 years which sounds suspiciously like ...
