Texas - it's probably A&M's to turn down but how do you turn a Texas matchup down and you know ESPN wants it


There will be no Texas/A&M match up in the Texas Bowl no matter now much ESPN wants it. If the Cotton Bowl couldn't make it happen 2 years ago, it ain't gonna happen in the Texas Bowl. There is still too much bad blood between the schools.

I am hoping that LSU has been touting our large alumni base in Houston as a reason for the Texas Bowl folks to choose us over the Aggies. LSU fans will stay in Houston hotels; the Aggies will just drive in for the game. If Joe Alleva gives a crap about selling tickets, then he's praying that the SEC sends us to Houston. Otherwise, LSU will have to eat the cost of a ton of unsold bowl tickets for the 3rd year in a row.

I don't believe this is going to happen. We opened the season in Reliant Stadium. I don't think they'll send us back there for a bowl.
