not like they're leaving Texas...

 

[West Tn Dawg]

Whatever.

BTW - aTm has always been my 2nd favorite team. I'm not sure if that will work anymore. Now they are in our conf. May have to find another 2nd favorite.

1. Two chances for maroon and white to beat rivals..

2. Home and home contest to see who looks best in M&W getting off the bus.

3. Added confusionof simpleton color commentators and field judges to get it right..

alone on this board. There are lots of aTm lovers on here. I'm not one of those but I do think aTm makes the conference stronger. I like that they really want in the SEC and lots of fans wore SEC shirts vs OkState on Saturday.

They will on day one have the largest fan base in the SEC.

but the rest are OK.

..but now it's a foregone conclusion #14 will be joining the SEC soon.


I have a feeling #14 is going to be a big screw-up.


When you hear rumors that crapholes like West Virginia may be #14, it makes you worry.

I've been telling you people for weeks that the SEC is NOT going to add anyone else unless it's a home run like A&M was. You can forget about the WVU rumors. We've already told them thanks, but no thanks. You can bet the house that the SEC isn't going to take a pay cut just to get to an even number of teams. If we were going to add a 14th team, we would have gone ahead and done it this year. But with the ADs meeting to discuss scheduling it looks like we're done. Not saying we won't eventually wind up with 14 or even 16. But the SEC isn't going to add anyone who doesn't bring a lot to the table.

..7 teams in the SECW; 6 teams in the SECE.


There is no way the SEC can function with a mis-match of schools in the SECW vs. the SECE. aTm has to have a permanent SECE opponent in football.


#14 is coming soon because it's an imperative.

 

[patdog]

I'm pretty confident the SEC can too. Y'all are trying to make a 13-team schedule a hell of a lot more difficult than it really is. And again, what makes you think the SEC would even consider taking a PAY CUT just to get to an even number? Because unless they hit a home run with #14, that's exactly what they'd be doing.
