I think that it is a fantastic start for what will become
one of the premier rivalries in the country. Their fans, just like our
fans, are avid supporters of their program, coaches and players. When
you ARE the best, you only want to play the best and take in EVERYTHING
that comes along with it.
I hope the SEC takes advantage of this
unique opportunity, to assist in the creation of a brand new and truly
great rivalry by scheduling Carolina and A&M to open the college
football season each and every year. Perhaps, with ESPN's help, we can start a
new BIG THURSDAY tradition to share with the nation. (There's a March
Madness ... Why not a BIG THURSDAY to start the college football
season???).
Start every season by playing the Aggies, end every
season by whipping the Taters. No more of these East Carolina, Citadel,
UAB, jokes to kick off the season.
And on another level,
remember The Aggies no longer have their long time rival, Texas Cows, to
pick on so, they just might like the idea of having a partner that
enjoys a good, clean scrap.
Welcome to CAROLINA COUNTRY Texas A&M Fans! Just wish I could be there to watch your "YELL PRACTICE" on the
state House steps. It's now part of the rivalry.
BARBEQUE .... Beef or Pork??? ... Winner decides every year.
P.S. ... To our Aggie friends: For years and years, Carolina would play KKKlemson during State Fair week, on what would become known as 'BIG THURSDAY'. Unfortunately, like so many long time traditions, it is now a thing of the past.
We already have some things going on between us. You have Hyman ... We had Hyman. I understand that this will be a 'Trophy Game' named after an Alamo Hero from South Carolina. Whether we like it or not, the SEC has decided to join us together at the hip. Let's make the best of it and build a great, new rivalry & tradition. One, not based on hatred but rather, one based on mutual respect and love for college football. What say you??? ... You might even like REAL Barbeque.
