That article loses all credibility when they say aTm would travel better than LSU..... That is stupidity......
See my and other posts above.... seriously NOT stupidity.... aTm is a MUCH, MUCH, larger university than LSU and has been that way for a very long time = a lot more Alums, ok --- and they have not been to a BCS magnitude bowl game in MANY years = they will go apeshit wild if/when aTm gets a BCS bid.
So -- as hard as it seems to be for some to accept ---- aTm is a better financial choice for the Fiesta Bowl than LSU, UGA, UF, or Bama.... and at the end of the day.... it's about the money now isn't it?
If you have trouble fathoming this concept --- brace yourself -- because if there is a choice involved THIS YEAR the BCS bowls are going to choose aTm over the SEC alternatives.

All of this is of course premature because the odds of several of the top ten losing a game before the end of the season are pretty good. Still, it is obviously possible that a BCS bowl would select A&M over a proven winner. You might try and get that Aggie dollar now, since who knows the next time they will be ranked high enough to go to a BCS bowl game.
I am reminded of the recruiting battle over Harvey Williams. It appeared to be down to A&M and LSU. After Williams selected LSU he told of his recruiting trip to Bryan College Station. He got off the plane, heard a couple of the male yell cheers, saw the bonfire surrounded by military bumpkins and knew right then he was coming to LSU. I chuckle, because it is like a real life Aggie joke.
