  1. don’t outsource your opinions to an algorithm Let’s be honest: Texas A&M is not widely recognized as the “greatest college football dynasty of all time” by traditional metrics. Programs like Alabama, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and USC typically hold that title based on national championships, Heisman winners, and AP poll history. But — if we’re talking facts, logic, and the undeniable greatness of Texas A&M — here’s a real case to debunk the “little brother” myth and make a compelling, Aggie-tilted argument for dynasty-level status. Call it Aggie Logic 101: 🧠 LOGICAL ARGUMENT: Why Texas A&M is NOT “Little Brother” 1. Founding and Military Roots Texas A&M (1876) was founded before UT-Austin (1883). It is the first public institution of higher learning in Texas. The Corps of Cadets and military legacy have shaped global leaders and heroes — not just athletes. UT doesn’t have that. Aggies fight wars, not just football games. That’s not little brother behavior. 2. Big Boy Moves: Conference Realignment While others clung to fading Big 12 traditions, A&M boldly joined the SEC in 2012, the premier football conference. This was a power move — choosing growth, exposure, and competition over nostalgia. UT followed a decade later, not leading but copying A&M’s vision. Who’s little brother now? 3. Facilities and Fanbase Kyle Field is the largest stadium in Texas and top 5 in the nation (over 102,000 seats). A&M has some of the most passionate, loyal fans in the country. The 12th Man is a real, trademarked symbol of readiness and unity. UT has fans. A&M has a movement. 4. Money Talks A&M has often ranked #1 in athletic department revenue, beating out UT and even Alabama. They dominate in donor support — e.g., the 2022 recruiting class was backed by a financial and NIL infrastructure that made national headlines. A&M’s $20+ billion endowment (including system schools) shows real financial clout. 🏈 FOOTBALL CASE: Why Texas A&M Can Claim “Dynasty DNA” 1. 2022 Recruiting Class = Greatest Ever According to 247Sports, A&M’s 2022 recruiting class is the highest-rated in history. No other school has matched that level of talent on paper. That’s dynasty material — whether the results fully panned out yet or not. 2. NFL Pipeline Texas A&M regularly produces elite NFL talent: Von Miller, Myles Garrett, Mike Evans, Christian Kirk, Ryan Tannehill, and others. They’re a talent factory, not just a one-hit-wonder school. 3. National Championships (Claimed) A&M claims 3 national titles: 1919, 1927 (both retroactive selectors), and 1939 (AP-era, official). For context: Alabama didn’t win its first AP national title until 1941. So technically, A&M was elite first. 🔥 CULTURAL DOMINANCE Midnight Yell Practice is unlike anything in college football. It’s not a gimmick — it’s a tradition born of military readiness and community. The 12th Man tradition inspired even the Seattle Seahawks, who had to license the phrase from A&M. A&M is a school of tradition, unity, and identity — not marketing fads. 🤝 THE FINAL TAKE: Dynasty in Spirit, Culture, and Grit While A&M doesn’t have 15 national titles like Alabama, they have something no other school does: A fanbase willing to suffer, believe, and show up regardless. A unified identity rooted in service, not just hype. The courage to make bold moves and the resources to eventually dominate. Texas A&M isn’t the little brother. They’re the sleeping giant — built for something bigger than football, but always ready to make history when the time comes. Want this written as a speech for Yell Practice or printed on a shirt? Just say the word.
  2. Book marking this tweet (it’s an Instagram post) (this guy has the AIDS)
  3. The great thing is Arch will just have to run the offense, not play hero ball. The players around him and Sarks scheme are good for 21-28 points, especially if he can figure out he needs to start running pistol or under center in the red zone. Quick hitter power run plays and PA instead of calling cute plays that work when there’s 60 yards depth to defend not 16.
  4. Arch may stay for 10 years now always do the opposite of cowturds hot takes
  5. Go upset the AFC who knows
  6. Theoretically you can beat either of those just run against it in practice mode until you have the beater. RB blocking and drag route beats mid blitz. Wildcat was broke as fuck but there’s a way to stop that too. also theoretically they fixed all the broken gameplay this update but then something else will still get figured out because the game is fundamentally flawed. The frostbite system is garbage. Fire Charlie Strong
  7. New update tomorrow, could fix some BS
  8. Once the season starts it will be SEC SEC SEC don't worry one bit. Texas, Georgia, Alabama, LSU, Florida, South Carolina, Ole Piss, Tennishit All teams that would compete for the big10 ship if they played in that charmin soft conference
  9. No mercy for these fuckheads in Austin this year. Trey Owen’s gets 3 TDs in mop up duty
  10. OL will look different with a more competent QB that steps up in the pocket. Also this talk of taking more snaps under center is promising for the power run game. The OL and Baxter are going to feast and just when they pull the safeties in it’s going over their heads.
  11. >lasts for 28 days in your path heh nothing personal kiddo
  12. Who’s going to step up and be the next Silas Bolden? Dude was the glue that always produced when needed.
  13. Texas should firmly ask recruits if their Apple Watch is just for accessories bro because this is like an aggy invention. Wearing a smart watch for the look and it isn’t even charged?
  14. worse than the fumbles was the not stepping up in the pocket on 4th and 5 to deliver a ball to a guy wide open across the middle and he has to stop and dive to catch it and not make the first down not the thread for this I know

  16. Baxter fumble kinda cost us the NC appearance 2 years ago. Not that it's his fault we still should've fucking won. Blue lost a fucking fumble that game too.
  17. yeah you are supposed to be able to tap RT to abort the playaction but it doesnt always work and holding RT cancels it but holding RT makes all the defenders that are rushing shed almost instantly They had to do this to keep the QB scrambles from being too powerful, but it is kind of silly that staying in the pocket allows decent blocking (sometimes) and taking off allows all the defenders to instantly shed at the same time.
  18. Turn on defensive ballhawk and tackle assist and increase size to 200 this will make it more fun to actually go for tackles yourself instead of letting CPU get smoked QBs in drop back don’t just instantly hold turbo, as soon as you do that they all shed defenders. You have to step in the pocket without holding RT then find an opening and scramble. Some of my best plays are a scramble then throw on the run, which most QBs throw inaccurate with but Arch has off platform ability which makes him sling it on the run. if you want more fumbles try hurdling guys. Sometimes it works and looks sweet. If it doesn’t work you fumble lol
