I agree with this statement. Texas is its own region. Texas.
You can hate if you want, but this is based on size, geography, and the fact it was once a stand alone nation.

Texas feels like the South until you get west of Dallas.

Jefferson Davis and Robert E Lee would disagree with you...Texas seceded from the Union and was part of the CSA during the Civil War, by God, that makes them part of The South.
the fact that Texas supported racism doesn't make them "The South"
if the want to expand make a play for Ga. Tech and Clemson.

Houston is like Atlanta with a little less dark brown, and a little more light brown.

wtf. California is France.
Here's the drill on this argument. I find it's pretty well received. Everything east of I45, the line from Houston to Dallas, is "the south." - or the green shaded area below. Culture, geography, fauna and flora, language, cuisine, ethnic makeup. East Texas is the south as much as Louisiana is. West of I45 is the southwest or more specifically our own brand of the southwest.
