You know what no one seems to mention is just two years ago when the big10 got there network Texas stepped in and asked a&m , Tech and Baylor if they wanted to all get together and make a Lonestar Network all TEXAS universities with there own network showing all TEXAS school programs.
Tech said they were interested and Baylor was all for it ( of course $$$$$ )
a&m said NO why? No one ever said I guess they cant put a freaking rivalry to the side and be civil for one thing. Everything from there fight song to calling us TU to taking it in the everyday life as most every former aggies makes a big deal you went to TU blah blah blah get over it. Geeze

So since everyone basically from there said No


Texas Came up with the idea LHN


Now a&m is really the only ones who hates it are saying we want to leave Texas is going to make more money........but if you ask a&m why they are leaving they wont say the LHN they say more $$$$$$$$$$$ in the SEC. Intersting 10 big12 schools just signed a contract worth 1.5 billion sounds like a lot of money if you ask me. Money isn't the issue this time, aTm's insecurities are they hate there step bro across the road is making money on something where they are not.


You want more $$$$$$ then market yourself like UT does.
a&m is a school of law and engineering UT is very big in business.

OU knows whats happening in 2 year a&m will be gone so OU is like what the hell lets go.


The longhorn network shows So far two Football games this year and to be honest thats all i see happening.

Rice and Kansas
total of 6 basketball games
All track and field
and old games from the past.

its almost a Tv program showing ESPN great highlights from the past.


The rumor was we would show TEXAS HS GAMES. That was a rumor you cant because its a State of TEXAS UIL rule no HS game can be on TV unless its playoffs So how is this making money off of any other university ??????? or a recruiting advantage.

Is showing Rowing on going to take a kid from a&m/ou ?

make your own network sheesh no one said you couldnt.


TEXAS markets there school x10 more than anyone else in the Big12

we have more messageboards , clothing line is again #3 in the nation at selling for the 9th straight year behind ND and UNC.



If people have a big deal with the LHN in a way I wish we would close it down but geeze to say we are tearing something apart which seems to be nothing but a history highlight program thats stupid.

Texas to the ACC...LMAO

A&M is just sour grapes but you see it all the time in college sports. They will have to change their philosophy coming to the SEC. I think that they did not beat Tx, OU, TT, Ok ST on a consistent basis and figure they can come east and do better....really lmao. I watched the last game they played and all I heard was the 12th man from the announcers and what noise the stadium was. PLLLLEase. Wait till they come to a 100 k plus stadium or go to Tiger Stadium at night in Baton Rouge then they will see what noise is all about.

I really wanted things to stay the way they are, I like the tradition I guess but I guess those times are a changing.

Damn! That brings back a lot of memories. Early September Saturday mornings when the temp was cool and the leaves are starting to turn, M's fight song woke me up many many times while living on the 14th floor of the U Towers....M go Blue.

.
I'm 30 years old and have been to 2 dozen Texas/OU Games and my seats are at the Border that divide the Teams. I have been to 26 Texas/Aggie games played in Austin and at Kyle and to 17 OhioSt/Michigan games at the shoe and the big house ( Dads big game each year ) and I have been to Neyland while florida was present playing Tenn back in 1998 with a Friend. I agree the atmosphere will be loud for SEC Games as nearly every stadium peaks 100,000+ but if any big12 team can ACCEPT the loud NOISE like its no other it would be a&m. ( very seldom do I speak up for the aggies )

Ever Feel cement shake below you ? Ever hear about a cement pressbox shake? http://youtu.be/90EW5KsToE4

Go Stand over the 12thman sign at the maroon out Game each year during the War Hymn. http://youtu.be/xoZuUQ_B0oE ( im gagging at 1:06 )


I dont know even a Longhorn Fan who will say they have heard anything any louder ( and I work on a flightline daily where F16's take off with afterburner )
Trust me the dam aggies will get there A$$es kicked in the SEC but it wont be because of it being to loud lol And I promise you even after an A$$ kicking Aggie Fans will cheer and whoop louder than the winning team singing there dam song lol






Hey PQ want a good laugh ? Only a Group of aggies would sing the war hymn and saw the Horns off at the reception

http://youtu.be/5VYSp_1zTKM




I think my fingers hurt for posting this

OMG...........

Alice In Wonderland comes to mind.

Perhaps they thought there would be a game too. LMAO

Dude. You guys are so far in their heads it isn't even funny. That's unbelieveable.

Don't they realize that it's a little pathetic? I mean, talk about obsessed with something. Aggie seems to be obsessed with UT. LMMFAO

Through the first two games of the season the WSU Cougar offense leads the nation in scoring at 61.5 points per game.

WOW!

Granted, their opponents haven't been BCS contenders, but for my perpetual underdog alma mater, this is HUGE!
