The SEC protecting SEC teams with favorable bowl

match ups, again. Texas A & M not wanting to play Texas. Yet, they crow about how tough they are. Just look at OOC schedules of Ole Miss, Auburn and Alabama this year.

The ACC implemented the same procedure this year. Now that the power 5 have the power a lot of the decisions are made by the conferences.

I still cannot understand the reasoning ...

for TAMU and UT to not play each other. If UF, UGA, USC and UK can do it fromthe SEC (play OOC rival) then why cant TAMU? Sames goes for KU-Mizzou in basketball.....no reason whatsoever for them not to play every year still.
Those teams (Bama, AU, UM) playing bad OOC oppenents isnt an issue for me. YOu need guaranteed wins and games to play your backups. THey all play aphysical enough conference schedule that they do not need to load their scheudle with OOC teams just to appease the masses that hate them regardless of what they do. For the record though, every one of those teams played at least on qualify OOC team. WVU, K-State and Boise are all pretty good football teams.

I think A&M wants to play UT, but UT is telling them to eff-off after A&M ran to the SEC when they didn't get their way with the whole Longhorn Network thing.
The way I see it, both were wrong. UT was the bully and A&M was the whiny little kid that took his ball and stomped off after getting beat...
Now, UT's refusal to play them is their attempt to bullly A&M into crawling back to the Big12, which in the end is where A&M belongs.
