TBH I think Missouri is a bigger jenga piece than OU is. OU will do what Texas does. Missouri OTOH would bolt in an instant if they can ever get that big 10 invite they want.
Nobody is blaming anyone because the conference isn't finished just yet.
A&M is replacable and will be replaced without a hiccup.
I think OU is the Jenga piece that if pulled will cause it to fall.

Missouri? I think Mizz and any other single north team can be replaced if they are the only one to leave.
If OU always stays with UT, then there will always be a Big XII Conference, imo.
pure speculation of course, but I see it as this:
If OU gets pissed and leaves, then no doubt they will drag OSU along with them.
At that point, it would be UT, Tech, Baylor, Kansas, KST, Iowa St and Mizz which would be beyond crappy. Worse than the finals days of the SWC, imo.
I would think the north schools would then bolt. Big 10 might invite Mizz, MWC would gladly take K and KST, and Iowa St goes to the wgaf.
...leaving UT, Tech and Baylor to either invite the stepkids SMU or Houston or Rice back plus maybe Air Force and BYU......or lol....Texas St and UTSA.....
or Tech goes to the Pac12 and UT goes independent and Baylor goes to the wgaf with Iowa St.
If Texas leaves, it's over.
They can't leave. Thanks for playing.
Why would they? Thanks for leaving but still wanting to play.
Like Texas A&M can't leave? Thanks for playing.
But of course, we're the scared ones.
Yes, we can.Like Texas A&M can't leave? Thanks for playing.
lol scared. Unless you're saying UT is afraid of making less money.
Don't when UT doesn't want to do you the favor of playing OOC with you on Thanksgiving in favor of Notre Dame.
Which do you think would make UT more money?
Notre Dame plays USC on Thanksgiving next year. Then Stanford. Then USC. You can't just snap your fingers and make a game change dates. I know, it's tough for a sip fan to understand there's a world outside of Austin, but there is. It's doing texas a bigger favor than us. We'll have plenty of great teams to play (Alabama, LSU, Auburn, Florida, etc.). They'll be playing Iowa State, Kansas State, Baylor, and Tech. We won't need bigger names to have a decent SOS, they will.
Personally, I don't care if we play them anymore after we beat them this year.
If I had to guess, I'd say it will continue immediately.
My second guess, would be that we take a 3-5 year hiatus from playing each other.
Given the choice of staying and playing t.u. every year or moving to the best football conference in the country, you'd be hard pressed to find any Aggie that prefers the former. If they say no, then I really wouldn't care.

So just play someone else in the meantime. Aggie thinks because it can't happen in two years means it can never happen.Not a fan, I know it's tough for an Aggie to understand there is a world outside of one one-sided college rivalry, but there it is.I know, it's tough for a sip fan to understand there's a world outside of Austin, but there is.It's doing texas a bigger favor than us.
No, really.
You think UT has trouble scheduling OOC games?We'll have plenty of great teams to play (Alabama, LSU, Auburn, Florida, etc.). They'll be playing Iowa State, Kansas State, Baylor, and Tech. We won't need bigger names to have a decent SOS, they will.
No, really.
Yeah, Aggie predictions have been gold in this thread so far.Personally, I don't care if we play them anymore after we beat them this year.

It may continue. It may not. Whatever happens, A&M will still be obsessed with UT. I think it would be awesome it UT and the rest of the conference just ignored them from now on, but I wouldn't count on it.

Did I say that?You think UT has trouble scheduling OOC games?
Do you honestly believe we aren't leaving to the SEC?Yeah, Aggie predictions have been gold in this thread so far.
When a relationship has a person who's madly in love with the other, who breaks up with who? The one who is more interested, or less interested? Try answering that one.

Who was it that crushed A&M in the last bowl game? BYU was it?
You can call it whatever you want, but being in the SEC will be a beautiful thing.
Iowa State
Tech
Baylor
Kansas St.
Alabama
Florida
LSU
Auburn
Are yall both re ed? I didn't say they would have trouble, I said they'd need it more than us. As in, the SOS overall. Following?
The last bowl we played BYU in was in 1990
Texas A&M - 65
BYU - 14
Thanks for the reminder, Batman.
How does that NOT scare the outta you?
*though, looks like LSU's starting QB might be sidelined this coming season after that bar fight, soooo...there's that.
I hope he goes to prison, tbh.
How many national championships have the Aggies won in the last 35 years?Last 5 years: A&M 3, Texas 2
Last 25: A&M 13, Texas 12
Last 35 years: A&M 18, Texas 17
Would you say the national profile of A&M is equal to that of UT?Did I say that?Didn't it happen last week like you guys said?Do you honestly believe we aren't leaving to the SEC?
Who said anyone was in love?When a relationship has a person who's madly in love with the other, who breaks up with who? The one who is more interested, or less interested? Try answering that one. We're so obsessed that we're going to leave.
A&M is still going to be in UT's shadow. The other SEC teams might get some nice Texas high school recruits though. Smart for them.

Good luck against Northeastern State!
In football? You were talking about football.
What year?

1939
So then you believe it will?Aggie thinks Roadrunner was saying it isn't going to happen.
Thanks!Good luck trying to get out of UT's shadow!
Aggie thinks 1939 was 35 years ago!
Or, Aggie disingenuously tries to edit Roadrunners question!
Take your pick.
Why not?So then you believe it will?
I don't believe that will ever happen, however.Thanks!
Nice edit.

Yes or no are the accepted answers.Why not?
