Yeah, I think there is more to this mess than Sharp wants folks to believe. There's no doubt that aTm has some big issues at the moment.

Neither UT or A&M seems to understand that they need each other more than ever before. A&M needs UT for their fans to have a competitive win against a name program that their fans would enjoy more than the random win over Arkansas, Auburn, or Alabama (which are all great wins). UT needs A&M for recruiting and to actually host a game in Austin every other year that the fanbase would be excited to go see.

But I'm of the belief that this game ain't getting played anytime soon--the Longhorns are too arrogant to want it back at the top levels and the Aggies are too irritated that they wouldn't keep the series going when they left to go to the SEC and DeLoss Dodds told them that "We will decide when we play again, not you." Other than legislative demand, I don't see it happening anytime soon. Plus, both schools want to use it as a recruiting chip, so right now, as UT is further down and playing in the weaker Big XII, the Aggies have been able to get better recruiting classes because of better seasons and better conference mates. When the shoe gets on the other foot, you can be sure that UT isn't gonna jump up and down to play A&M if they are down, too.

All I know is that when both teams are mediocre, this is when, historically, that some of the Texas private schools and UH have done very well. This year was yet another season that proved this point.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Look, as for SMU….they’re 30 minutes down the road. You can say “why are we talking about them” they’re in the top 12 playoff. We have to get over it. We’re college football fans. Of course SMU being in the playoff is going to be discussed. But as for their performance….it was expected. They got super lucky with their schedule this year. Just like Indiana. If you plugged Memphis or Tulane in their spot, they would’ve done the same thing. Their QB is no better than most QBs we faced in the AAC this year. Our QB was as good as him. That’s just the truth. so they were a really good AAC team this year that got a super lucky schedule in a bad conference. I don’t hold anything against them for that. BUT We can’t really discuss them for much longer because the current college landscape is set up to make them a national powerhouse. They have a good coach. He is. And he got them in the national discussion. And they can take that with their money and go on an unbelievable run. Their QB won’t be here next year. Of course he won’t. They’ll pay a better one. Their NIL will dwarf every team in the ACC. I would bet their NIL will be top 10 in the country. Maybe top 5. They’ll have more $$ available than Bama. Arguably UT. What do they need? 4 star DE? 3 top OL? QB? 2 WR? There’s no cap to what they can pay. So we have to move on from SMU. They will be in the playoff a lot. So of course we’ll talk about them because they’ll be in the playoff. But we have to get over it. Are they scum bags? Yes. Of course. They have too much money and they will win. The landscape has changed. And they will succeed because they can pay. We have to hope we break off and do our own thing

      My post was sarcasm. Not only would they have to install a new system, but as I said, they would have get to know the players as well. It’s ridiculous to think it should be done or even could be done.

      A Big 10 vs SEC invitational College Football Playoff is of no interest to me. This will be the 2nd time Tennessee and Ohio State have played in their history. The Clemson vs Texas game will be their first matchup EVER. That to me highlights the absurdity of the out of conference scheduling for the bigger brand teams. And if Alabama went up to Penn State and got blown out exactly the same way nobody would mention it next year when they are in consideration for a wildcard spot with 2 (or maybe even 3) losses.
