They have had 13 years for the burnt Orange daddy feeling to wear off, so they are starting to get a little optimistic.  They are in for the dick slap of a lifetime once the game starts.

I remember when Rice pulled the same stunt, honoring their NC baseball team when we were in town to play them in football.

It's what lesser schools do.

And, as far as no players following Elko from Duke, he made a money move and he liked those kids at Duke. He didn't want to subject any of them to the Collie Station weirdness.

2) LOL "With a three-year runway building up to this rivalry matchup, Texas has done every single thing they can to claw their way out of A&M's shadow—and not just on the football field."

They just can't help themselves from making more and more excuses.

They're fucking right this was a weak SEC year, and guess what? It don't fucking matter if Texas wins because guess who it says is the Conference Champion no matter what? Whoever wins it.  There are no fucking asterisks saying "Yeah BUT in a down year"

 

Also if Texas has "only faced Georgia" then why is it we keep beating teams other top SEC teams can't?  Like Florida, Kentucky, Vandy, and OU.

Well they moved senior day to the UMass game because it is a distraction they can't handle before mean evil tu. However the 2024 AGS did tie the number of wins in Omaha they had amassed in their entire programs history prior so this is not a distraction but a celebration #whoop(s)

Name a more consequential accomplishment they've had in a big 3 sport in the last 20 years.  It's pathetic, but it's really all they have. 

Hell, they gave Jimbo a fucking national championship plaque for...existing?

When you have nothing real to celebrate but a terribly inflated sense of self worth, you find bullshit to celebrate. 

It's almost like they added conference championships to their wall in years where they didn't even play in the conference championship game.

[Beau Vine 55901]

BV Note: On one hand, I kind of sympathize with Graham, because Kanell is literally one of the stupidest people in sports media.

On the other hand: 

Quote

Danny Kanell says SEC teams are "terrified" of going north for CFP games, but he's ignoring that Texas A&M football is built for it

Danny Kanell is once again taking needless shots at SEC teams. In other news, water is wet.

The former Florida State quarterback has made something of a reputation for himself from being a hater of all things SEC. This more often than not is a fruitless exercise, as numbers and on-field results prove that the Southeastern Conference is the deepest and most prestigious conference in the land.

Even so, he continues to try to find ways to get under the skin of SEC fans. His most recent tactic is proclaiming with the usual bluster that teams from the conference footprint are "terrified" of traveling north to face off with a Big 10 team in a CFP matchup.

This pretty much has to do with the cold weather in the northern part of the country. Since SEC teams obviously play down south where it's unbearably hot for most of the year, and most of the players are from that area of the country anyway, Kanell's logic is that they would be forced to play in an environment to which they are extremely unaccustomed, and therefore the home team would have an advantage.

First of all, you don't really see many Big 10 teams playing night games at this time of year anyway, so it's not like this would be a huge advantage for a team used to playing in the bitter cold—that's simply not what would be happening.

Second of all, if the Aggies are one of the teams to make the CFP (as they still have a shot to do), then they are straight-up exempt from this criticism. It would make more sense to levy against a pass-heavy team, but this is an Aggie squad that has made its name in the run game. Their ground-and-pound style, if anything, would benefit from these conditions.

 

[Pimphand 6383]

Immune to criticism is the first thing I think of when I think about aggy football or aggy sports in general.

Point being, it happened.  Now imagine Texas beating aggy at Kyle field, in Texas’s first year in the SEC to clinch a spot in the conference championship game denying aggy from making it.  That adds a little bit of relevance to the game.  Now throw out a bunch of sip fans to rush the field surrounded by fake army.  I’ll sit by and see what happens.  
 

To your point though, they argued after the fact that the sip fans were rushing on to their sacred, memorial field.  Take it for what it’s worth.

[Skipper 6412]

My aggie cousin made the same point that apparently A&M never gets holding calls go against them.  Of course, we've seen us get a soft or non-existent holding call damn near every conference game.  Something has got to give this week.

[Blotto 24046]

I have yet to observe a college football fan base that isnt 100% positive they get fucked worse on holding calls than any other team.

Yeah and then they had to walk it back and clarify it's the sacred grass outside the student center dedicated to all the fallen aggy right?  I mean how could we play a football game on the field if the grass was sacred?   It really was fucking stupid.

Yeah some of our fans ran onto the sacred grass after we won, so the fake army had to rush to its defense.

Also broke their...some number of games long home winning streak. We would break a similar one that Nebraska had a few years later.

And what few people remember is that they were a pre-season favorite to play for the national title in 1995. They had been struggling with trying to get respect as a national power all through the early 1990s, and kept screwing it up by losing the Cotton Bowl. So 1995 was going to be the year! The year of glory! Finally!

But then they lost to Colorado early on. Doh!
