Stop! They are actually a great fit for the SEC, especially for the LSU fans that live in Houston.


Couldn't agree more!...Easily my second favorite school in the conference.

I love their brand of eccentricities that they bring to the conference, and not to mention their insane enrollment that will probably be the first to surpass 70,000 students.

Most valuable football program in the country. Just passed Texas , probably due to joining the SEC



How do you figure? There was an article published a few months ago that had the value of A&M's team ranked middle of the pack in the SEC and far behind LSU.

I like having them. But I don’t like their strange traditions. I moreso like the money they bring to the table and the fact they’re in Texas.

I would be equally as happy if UT or TCU joined. I realize TCU doesn’t have the money or reputation of A&M though. Just like the Texas presence and road trips to Fort Worth for games would be sweet.

They don't belong in the SEC and neither does Mizzou. I will never change my mind on this.

They are among the largest and wealthiest schools in the country. Top 5 for sure. They have better academics than LSU, 


They beat lsu with 70 something in gazuple overtime in football.
They got to 2nd round NCAA last year, unlike lsu. Their point guard missed all year this year.

Crowing about one game is goofy when recent history says opposite.

Why not quit beating a dead horse? aTm is SEC, and a great division rival for LSU. Yes they and their fans are quirky. Guess what, LSU and Tiger fans are quirky, too.

Their stadium is impressive. It's build like a tower, built straight up. and everything else there is just because they're wayyy heavy on tradition.

You can not like them and think they’re strange but this is absolutely stupid.

The big piece you are missing is without A&M and specifically the Texas market the SECN is not nearly as valuable and you should check into how much the SECN money is for each team

This terrible basketball team was ranked at the beginning of the year. Im tired of seeing them bring terrible teams in. The need to go fight for survival in some terrible conference.


They beat us every year in a sport.

I don't like them, and them and Mizzou wouldn't have been my choice. But you can't bring this crap when they beat us.

Seriously your a fricking arse clown!!!

They have more endowment money than all other SEC schools combined, don’t wake a sleeping giant is what I have always been taught
