As hotly contested as last year's super was, I can't say I blame them for trying to duplicate that.

Are you attempting to counter my point or support it?
quote:Not sure why you're complaining. I'm rather happy we didn't get paired with an ACC hosted regional and if chalk holds, the Aggies get a relatively easy opponent for our first game in Omaha.quote:They pair us with a big 12 opponent in every sport. It's not all based on proximity. They even paired us in the opening round of the CWS with a big 12 opponent, where proximity doesn't have anything to do with it. This isn't a coincidence either.quote:
And again the fascination with pairing A&M up with a BDF opponent. Every selection/bowl committee seems hell bent on making that happen. Like the whole freakin country is on pins and needles dying to see that old rivalry renewed.
Whatever. I hope purple tard DOES wind up in our house. Like it should've been last year. Payback will be sweet
Get used to it as contrary to popular opinion we are still in Texas.

Thanks...I was having trouble scrolling Mapquest.

Where do you get that I'm complaining? We got the weakest NS in the opening round of the CWS

Selection committee basically saying conference tourney doesn't mean ****
Are you alleging that it EVER meant something (other than auto-bid)? If so, when?
quote:Sorry if I misunderstood but it appeared to me you were on one of your "the NCAA will always find a way to match us with the BDF" rants and couldn't understand why in this case since even if you are 100% correct about the NCAA, it likely worked to our favor this time.quote:quote:Not sure why you're complaining.

How did a 5th place Clemson get a national seed then?
quote:Wonder who's sock this is
Matchups are fine. Happy with it.

It's less complaining and more your conspiracy theory track record. The NCAA couldn't give 2 s**ts about A&M.
quote:Can you then explain why t.u. was sent to Dallas last year instead of College Station if we get matched with tu literally every chance the NCAA gets in the post season?quote:

So we get matched with tu literally every chance the NCAA gets in the post season, and when they can't do that, it's some other b12 school, but it's just a conspiracy theory.
Brilliant
quote:Exactly. Look how often Florida and Florida State are matched up. Clemson and USC are regularly paired, too.
It also makes sense to pair Texas with us from a travel standpoint. We are very close together and since we are not in same conference makes lots of sense. It also insures high ticket sales for the event.

Or in softball this year?
Or basketball this year where proximity isn't a factor?
quote:Both A&M and t.u. have made the NCAA softball tournament all four years since the Aggies move to the SEC, this was the first time the two have met. So much " getting matched with tu literally every chance.."
Or in softball this year?

Just because we were both in the post season doesn't mean the chance to match us up was there

According to you they make it fit even if the #s don't support it. So why not other years?
