Nothing to be sorry about Ponyman. It must be hard for you to admit that OU is "equal" to TU as far as the Big XII goes. I mean with OU owning more Big 12 and National Championships that Texas, more weeks ranked in the top 10, higher winning percentage, etc.
For the record...A&M was the 1st BIG XII Champ and they do have a National Championship. granted it was a long time ago, lol
You need to recheck what you consider staying in the top ten "year after year" because TU is not as consistent as OU.
If TU wants to keep being a big fish in a little pond, cool with me. I like that A&M has the balls to go to a bigger & better conference. No one can argue that the SEC is head and shoulders above the Big XII. TAMU will take it's lumps in it's first few years in the SEC, I'd be a fool to think otherwise.
In the long run though, how many Texas HS recruits will shift from the Horns in an even more watered down Big XII (if it survives) to A&M in a conference with better overall competition, national exposure, and the last 6 national champs?
One more thing...how cool is it that TU's stadium is named after a Oklahoma native?

You know you bring up some very interesting points.
Yeah OU has had some good years over the past ten year and they have also put some Great fish in the pond at the next level.
I will be the first to say OU is one of the Top ranked Teams in the nation DUH
you made a paragraph of facts trying to presuade us UT Fans that OU is high in the big12 NAH Really ? doesnt take a masters dagree to see that lol
Funny how you just cant say Texas you have to say TU because saying
Texas will make you feel little lol IMO
TEXAS and ATM are both Very good schools where you get a GREAT EDUCATION.
I got a education from Texas and have Family who went to ATM.
Funny thing Texas didnt teach me to dislike anything and everything about ATM but every XMAS my family members who went to ATM feel like they have to wash there hands after everything I thouch
Good ATM wants to go to the SEC ( dont ever expect them to get to the top there ) You think the big12 has politics ? Talked to Tenn lol They will tell you about Politics in the SEC.
You think if Atm leaves and The big12 or whatever it is brings in someone else its going to make a big difference ?
The OU game is what gives TEXAS there hype each year The ATM games means nothing to the BCS.
The SEC wants everyone in the Big12 to come join but everyone but ATM would rather go to the PAC12/10.
oh and BTW
Charter , ATT uverse , Direct TV , Time warner have all said they will carry the LHN. The university is still working on what all is going to be on this network before its released.
I know this because my neighbor works for direct sales and she already showed me where its in writing before mid season the REGULAR sports package will include the LHN.
If or when TEXAS ATM goes to the SEC have fun being a whipping post.
Oh and you think ATM will play Texas still ? WRONG if they bolt to the SEC its DONE lol already been said it will be done. Funny how every UT Fan could care less if its done or not. Yes its a great rivalry but atleast we dont have to hear on the years we beat you " yeah but we beat you in ( name another year ) "
I understand some UT fans just like every fan base have fans who think there $hit doesnt stink lol well guess what everyones does even Aggies lol
You know why I put the ATM game on my schedule as the one we need to win every year ? Beating a Aggie just to shut them up is helarious

I pull for OU , OKie St , Baylor anyone over ATM why ? just to watch ATM fans sniff.
I would pick all big12 teams to win when we dont play them but ATM.
Its sad just sad how ATM makes a Football game so dam personal in life

yeah its fun and I bleed UT football win or lose but dam its not life.
TU
just say
The university of Texas and The University of Texas ATM I promise if you say it Kyle field wont colapse and your family will accept you in there house for XMAS.
isnt it sad I would pull for a Sooner over an Aggie.
Atleast sooners are not obnoxious like Most Aggies.
