Re: Aggies to the SEC?!?!?

Like I said, it will be good for them in thelong run. I don't think track or w basketball brings in the money that the big 3 do. If that were the case I would talk about Texas swimming, vollyball ect. I'm not putting the aggies down (although it's sporting), The sec defense will kill a spread offense unless there is perfect execution. I'M just sayin it will be a real challenge.

Re: Aggies to the SEC?!?!?

Talking about winning in womans sports or track just does'nt fly. What have they WON in the big 3 sports??? By the way I agree the move will help in the long run, but they will get killed in the sec the 1st couple years. Remember pre-season polls mean nothing.

"rlol" "rlol" You do understand that playing better teams makes you play up to their level, right? Which teams should we play to get better? Iowa State and Baylor, or LSU and Alabama?

There are only 2 SEC teams ranked higher than us in preseason. Granted, preseason rankings don't mean much...after all, if the tea sips can fail to qualify for a bowl last year and still get ranked... ;-) . LSU quit their series with us in the 90s because they were tired of being beat. If all you know or remember of Aggie football is the Fran era then I can see why you'd be so skeptical.

Let's just take a look at Aggie Athletics real quick:
3x defending National Champions in mens and womens track and field.
defending NC in womens basketball. Our mens BB team makes the playoffs every year.
baseball and softball teams make the playoffs every year
NC is golf and equestrian
on and on.

We have a state of the art new track facility, new baseball stadium is being built right now, a large and very active Alumni fan base..

Anyone who thinks Texas A&M athletics as a whole and football in particular aren't on the rise are either mad about it, or not watching. ;-) :thumbs2:
Track,womans basketball??? I don't think anyones thinking about the aGGIES being dominate in those particular sports. How bout football basketball baseball? Now what has a&m won in those sports? Sec will :lol:: at a&m.
