Texas A&M Gets Its First Real SEC Rivalry With LSU On Thanksgiving Week
by Steven Godfrey
The Baton Rogue Advocate is reporting that, after a few interim seasons, Texas A&M and LSU will meet as Thanksgiving rivals starting as early as 2014. The move will create a regular season finale rivalry that suits the interests of both the Tigers and Aggies, as well as former LSU Thanksgiving opponent Arkansas, who will now start an annual "border war" (our words, not theirs, so calm yourself, Kansas fans) with newcomer Missouri.
This is the rarest case of conference realignment actually helping to clear up a scheduling problem. When A&M announced they were leaving the Big 12, the lost rivalry with Texas on Thanksgiving night was considered a terrible "blow to Texas tradition" (pearl-clutching, drawled-out emphasis ours). While LSU isn't UT, there's a long history between both schools, and LSU fans have never been fond of Arkansas as a season-ending "rival," a forced pairing that occurred during the 1992 expansion.

This would be a great game for the Longhorn Network
LSU fans are apparently looking forward to it. I'm not sure if I'd prefer the game to be on Thanksgiving or on the following day. I'd rather not spend Thanksgiving day in Louisiana every other year. Should be a good game though.

I'm an LSU grad and some friends and I will be taking the road trip to College Station this year for the game. Should be a good time.

"You ever been to College Station?" Muschamp asked the crowd. "It'll be the only time you go."
Dear aggsy,
Just because you are invited to a birthday party does not mean it is your birthday.
Translation
Just because you play on Thanksgiving does not mean more people care about you, fact is people tuned in to watch Texas play, not aggsy, you playing LSU will equate to Texas aggsy watching and LSU/SEC fans tuning in. You get no present for playing on Turkey day except now you get a beat down from someone new.
More people will be watching A&M/LSU than UT/TCU
You get no present for playing on Turkey day except now you get a beat down from someone new.
A&M was 3-31 against Texas from 1940-1974
A&M was 19-18 on Turkey day since that time.
It's actually worse. 37-76-5 due to many different cir stances (all male military academy until the 70s, football team gutted during wwii, etc. ) that made the record very lopsided. Since both have been on an even playing field and the scholarship rule has come into effect the record is very even between the two schools.
lol rivalry
Not really a rivalry when you get your ass handed to you every single year...which is exactly what will happen. I'm sure LSU was more than happy to sign up for the guaranteed win and if I was a fan of the team I'd be pumped too. Who doesn't want to win while hanging out with the family on Thanksgiving?
It's like good high school teams that purposely schedule a bad team for homecoming.
What is your record since joining the Big 12? I could care less what you did when you were passing out Fed-ex envelopes full of money, nor do I care what happened when you could fold up your helmet and put it in your back pocket.
Since the Big 12 was formed aggsy has been dead dog spit and they know it. Since 1996 you have beaten Texas about 4 times in 18 tries.
Here is what I will really miss from our time with aggsy
Aggsy comes up with a classless name for a Texas player, and that player destroys them every year. Some of the more memorable names
Chrissy Simms - was 3-1 vs aggsy
C-Bong Benson - 4-0 vs Aggsy
Radio - 4-0 vs Aggsy
Cart McCoy - was 2-2 vs aggsy
little cart - was 1-0 vs aggsy, a stinger because he is the reason you lost
Butter Tooth, Roscoe P Coltrain and a few other for Mack Brown = Best part is Mack has had more Success at Texas than Aggsy have ever had in their lifetime.
Good bye aggsy, it's been swell beating you, but now we must pass you on to the SEC as they are looking to sodomize you
what year did A&M win their national championship?

Congratulations, I guess. Maybe you should find an SEC board to circle jerk with them about the news.
This is a College Sports board. The SEC is a part of Collegiate athletics. The best part.
What date is the A&M / LSU women's equestrian meet?
Aren't set to compete against them next year as they're not an official team at LSU, only a club.
Here's the full schedule:

Jackie Sherrill: It's already been decided that LSU and Texas A&M are going to play in primetime on Thanksgiving night in the future.@Aaron ens @SportsTalkwBo natural, not manufactured - A&M v LSU are bordering state flagship schools & played 50x, 12x before Tech existed
