What is A&M's AAU status? Are they still in danger of losing it?

aggy plays UAB in late November at home, and based on rankings, they're likely the underdogs.

SEC, SEC SEC!!

They are behind Rice, UT-Austin, SMU, UT-Dallas, and Baylor academically and will continue to slide.  

Remove Baylor and insert TCU. And outside of the business school, A&M is probably better holistically than UTD but you'd be splitting hairs at that point. 

You could also make the case for the LA colleges like Trinity and Southwestern.

Rankings don’t make a shit obviously since Aggy is favored by 16. Take UAB at halftime moneyline as long as it’s a 3 score game or less.

Baylor is ahead of TCU in USNWR.

Trinity and Southwestern are not ranked nationally but are extremely high in the regional rankings, so I agree that we should put them ahead of Blinn St. College

Niche has atm #4, Trinity #5, TCU #6 and BU #7 - which is a more holistic ranking that includes location/weather/athletics etc. but a pretty good guideline imo. 

Plus - TCU is trending up and Baylor is not. I would be fine with my hypothetical offspring attending TCU - not so much Baylor (and I'm an SMU grad).

As a recent high school student and current longhorn, that reputation is still alive and well. The only people excited to get into A&M were those who had no shot at UT or were legacies and only applied to aggy. I had plenty of close friends either not get in at all or not get McCombs or Cockrell so they decided to go to A&M. I don’t know a single person who picked aggy over UT unless scholarship money swayed them. The day UT decisions were coming out was one of the most intense days I’ve ever seen in high school. In class, my teacher stopped teaching because she realized all her students were on their phone or laptop spamming the refresh button. Then a mix of chears and sobbing over took the room and she decided to end class early. But no one gave two shits when they got their a&m decision. I still have friends trying to transfer into UT from college all across the state. I don’t know a person trying to leave Austin.


Nobody sues when they don’t get in to A&M.

I have to explain to aggys that A&M will never grow enough to affect the political landscape in Texas. The UT system grants more than half the degrees conferred in Texas each year. The UT system has about 240,000 students, the A&M system about 135,000. A&M could run College Station enrollment to 170,000 and it still wouldn’t change a thing. Also, outside of tuition, UT Austin received over $43,000 per student each year in state and federal funding. A&M receives less than $19,000 per student. The state legislature and the DC contingent don’t consider A&M to be worthy of equal funding. That will never change, regardless of how much A&M drops enrollment standards and further dumb down aggy degree requirements.

That's only because if a minority student gets in over a good white student they just have a special "bonfire" on their lawn to make sure the minority student understands the importance of tradition in Aggieland.

Dear Aggieland faithful,

I was in the beautiful College Station this weekend for the big SEC matchup. Being a Rebel, I understand the great importance and joy of tailgating and I would like to thank your school and her fans for easily the best road trip in my short years as a follower of SEC football.

Me and my friends arrived early to set up our tailgate in your hallowed ground. I clumsily set out my stakes to mark my spot when a fine, upstanding Aggie gentleman informed me that I had erroneously staked out ground meant for other tailgaters. His courteous nature and swift bludgeoning hammer gently made clear my mistake. After several blows, I was able to correct my error and the kind gentleman and I shared several drinks in the spirit of fine Southern bonhomie. After the game, I was graciously well tended to by Kyle Field's fine medical team and never once heard any gloating or any arrogance from the fine people of THE flagship Texas university.

I look forward to many return trips to the Station and her fine medical facilities.

All my best to the greatest fans in the country,

An Old Miss Junior

Have you ever noticed that when an aggy does anything remotely decent, they have to include "class of '86", or just put '86 behind their name, but you never see that when an aggy is arrested or accused of a misdeed?  I wonder what class Mr. Hammer Time belonged to?

I'd be stunned if people from other parts of the country gave A&M a second thought beyond their football team. Nobody gives a shit about them or their illusions of becoming number one in the state of Texas.

It's amusing and baffling that they think their obsessions occupy the minds of regular people.

To be clear, I don't think many people from other places think long and hard about UT, either. Where it counts, we have a solid reputation, but most of the world doesn't care. Why should they?

Why should we care whether or not they do? In fact, it don't make a shit to us.

Threw me for a second, too.  They meant a 20-game win streak overall, not against each other.  Like Texas won 30 consecutive games from 1968-1970, A&M's most consecutive wins is apparently 20 from 1938-1940.  Texas beat them as their last loss before the streak, and their first loss to end their streak, so A&M only beat us once during that time.  Unusually, I only see 19 consecutive wins for them, so I don't know what the 20th win is supposed to be.  Spring game, anyone?

I could believe at one point that Texas had 20 straight wins over aggy, even though we haven't, but only because Texas has all sorts of crazy statistics about Aggy. Like how Aggy didn't score a point until almost a decade into the "rivalry", or how 2 games into the series, Aggy had been outscored 86-0. Looks like our best 20-year stretch was 18-2, with a couple of non-concurrent decades where Aggy never netted a win.

But no, never think aggy would beat Texas for 2 decades, lmao.

Yeah we beat current #6 and playoff contender on a neutral field. aggy on the other hand, beat an offense inept basketball school during an outlier season at home, in OT, and said team will probably get beat by Middle Tennessee this weekend.

He is possibly the biggest loser on twitter. His tweets are mindbogglingly stupid. And hardly anybody even likes them. He seems to tweet mostly just to himself.

He never makes any sense.

Can't be overstated.  Daniel Figurelli aka Daniel Joseph.  So racist he ruined his surname to the point of being unemployable.
