Nevermind, I don’t care.

"Baw" is where you go to drink. 

Maybe one of you photoshop guys can aggy this (or another) appropriately:

Yeah!  He doesn't get any respect.

I know this is the place we usually bag on aggy, including me but this is a really good interview with Dat Nguyen.  Ignore the aggy interviewer being aggy, his story is really interesting.  Also it will get a bit religious at times but religious or not it’s a good story to hear the first half or so atleast.

Quote

After graduating from public high school, I was certain I’d never have to hear people make hissing sounds in response to topics or people they don’t like, especially in university. 

I was wrong. 

Although these people aren’t wearing cat ears and hissing at people who don’t look like they work at Hot Topic and wear all black, they are now hissing at people for wearing orange instead. 

Both people, however, are equally embarrassing. 

One of the first traditions I learned about A&M was its “famous” rivalry with (dare I say it?) … The University of Texas.

As a youth, I heard countless stories from Aggies about that “other school” who told me to never go there! It was apparently a dark and evil place with a horned creature! 

They sure made it sound similar to another special place. 

I grew up excited to become an Aggie and fight the great war against the Longhorns, competing against the other great rivalries like Batman versus Superman, Sparta versus Athens and Coke versus Pepsi. 

And let me tell you, after finally attending Texas A&M and witnessing this “rivalry” firsthand, it isn’t all some of you Aggies hyped it up to be. 

In fact, it’s actually quite pitiful. 

I mean, people even refuse to address the school with the proper word itself, instead referring it to as t.u. It doesn’t sound like we are disrespecting or demeaning them. It sounds like we’re afraid. This isn’t Harry Potter. Just say the word. 

Although I understand that A&M and UT competed against each other from the late 1800s to the 2000s, we haven’t played a game against them in football for 12 years. Even if they are joining the SEC, why should they receive any special attention from us? They’re just like any other team playing against us and have not proved their worth.

There are more qualified teams already in the SEC … you know, because they’ve been good for a while. Whereas UT is only just joining.

However, we can’t seem to comprehend this simple fact and choose to dramatize them into a mythical creature, granting them an undeserving form of immortality. 

They’re not boogeymen, ghouls, goblins or parking tickets, they’re just another school in Texas. While we should not care about them, we have chosen to do the opposite. We have glorified them to such a degree that they’ve become embedded into our school’s culture. 

We spend actual money on merchandise dedicated to them, spread their symbols during our football games when the game isn’t even against them and make animal sounds when someone brings up their name. 

We give them capital. We give them exposure. We give them power. 

Humiliating. 

Personally, I don’t want some Longhorn walking around the SEC with an overinflated ego thinking they live in our head rent-free. They’re already obnoxious enough from believing living in Austin is a personality trait.

The worst part about our infatuation with UT is that it’s completely one-sided. They don’t have chants, merchandise, or hand gestures dedicated to us. They don’t even think of us as their main rival. 

In fact, even in 2010, UT was already considering other schools as their main rivals, with the Oklahoma Sooners taking the spot. 

While they mention A&M used to be a rival, they didn’t even say we used to be the biggest rival. Instead just referring to us as being a bigger rival in the past — the past. I need you to think about that again. 

Already 13 years ago, UT considered us a distant memory. 

At this point, we are literally an obsessive ex-girlfriend who refuses to move on from their previous heartbreak. Meanwhile UT is “winning” the breakup, already canoodling with other people.  

We shouldn’t be reducing ourselves to this level of fan behavior. We have been in a higher, more competitive football division for 12 years and we still frequently beat them in other sports, with recent back to back wins in our hockey games against them on Jan. 28 and 29

Editorial note:

Ricky Gervais Lol GIF

I understand A&M is a school rich in customs and traditions, but just because something is a tradition and “just the way it’s always been done” doesn’t mean it’s good. People used to have child marriages, bind their feet to make them smaller and practice human sacrifice. 

And look, I understand these traditions are a lot worse than some jokes about UT, but the principle remains: some traditions are outdated. 

I enjoy being a hater as much as the next person, but thinking UT is a worthy opponent anymore is obsolete. 

While their entrance to the SEC might prove otherwise, we cannot let them believe we’re already fan-girling them as we giggle in excitement about having an excuse to use the horns down symbol or obsessively talk about them throughout social media. 

Why be a crazy ex-girlfriend when we were the hotter partner to begin with?

So, let’s stop giving them unnecessary attention and direct our energy towards new rivals and make new traditions. After all, is that not what Aggies are known for? 

Besides being better than UT.

That thread is even funnier because when A&M joined the SEC, before they even played a game in any sport, they filed an appeal to the SEC to get a waiver for the conference's student seating rules, which would force A&M to move some of their student seating away from the visitor bench.  aggy's appeal was full of references to TURDITION and the bestest student section in the history of the world, and yet the SEC just patted little aggy on the head and said, "You're not special.  Follow the rules."

LOL Hockey? The club sport? How about all time records in NCAA sports?

You'll never change, aggy. We're living in the author's head.

I’m guessing the author of that is a fat ugly chick
Sounds more like surly black ops than something written by an actual aggy. Well done if one of you bastards actually infiltrated the battalion

The new SEC will have 8 teams that have a FBS national championship in the BCS/CFP era. 3 teams have legacy national championships from way back in the day and 5 teams have never won a title. If the 11 teams with a title, aggy’s is by far the oldest.

Alabama, LSU, Florida, Georgia, Auburn, Texas, Oklahoma, and Tennessee are in the first group.

Arkansas, Ole Miss, and aggy are in the 2nd group.

Questions:  How many SEC Championships (NCAA-sanctioned sports only) does aggy have?  How long will it take us to pass them?

So i did a quick dive on this.    They have 18 SEC Championships since joining (of course aggy being aggy, they listed SEC west championships and end of season tourneys that I had to back out of what they have listed).

Over the same amount of time we have 83.   

However lets assume SEC is harder to win championships (Florida always in top 5 of Directors cup as an example).   Aggy still only avg'd about 2.8/yr conference championships over their last 10 years of Big 12 play.     They have always been under achievers.  

And 1/3 of their SEC championships are in Swimming/Diving and volleyball, and well....   we know how that is going to go.

I wonder what happens when a program that hasn't lost a conference title in men's swimming and diving since 1979 joins the SEC.

Nice job.  So how many conf championships did Florida win per year?  We can assume we will be around that # given more competitive nature and FL will slide down a bit.  

Then aggies will slide down annual amount too...so what is that #?  18 divided by 10?  Is that how long they've been dominating the SEC?

So that 1.8 becomes 1.3 per year.

Without knowing FL average, my gut guess is we overtake in 5 years.
