Remember when we'd go on the Kansas, Missouri, Iowa State and Kansas State stretches?

I used to hate those. Boring games. Not saying that we won them or even dominated, but so uninspiring. You'd be lucky to find it on pay per view with no announcers at 11 am.

I still feel that way about Missouri. I realize they have won in the East. I realize they've had some good teams. But, from their arena football looking font for their team to the fact that they destroyed their FB program, I have little interest in the game.

Edit: not mocking. Just pointing out how stale it is.

Agreed 100% Nothing against those fans or the quality of their teams, but they might as well have been non-conf games as playing them meant nothing to our fanbase other than it being a win or loss at the end of the day. Zero bragging rights on the line.

I feel the same way. I'm having a hard time getting excited about this game.

This post is the reason I'm nervous about this game.

Your memory is not too good we only played 3 teams from north each year
Except for the couple of times we played in CCG

Issue, Mizzou has beat us quite a few times and so has KSU...even lowly ISU beat us in Kyle while I watched in disbelief.

Hope the team takes this wkend seriously as Mizzou had this game circled as a win for them (a few prognosticators think it will happen as Calzada will come back down to earth if they run a cover 3 zone). We shall see.

Despite being conference foes, this is the first meeting between Texas A&M and Missouri since Nov. 15, 2014. The Tigers have won two straight and five of the last six in the series. The Aggies' last win came on Nov. 11, 2012.

Thats whats so sad about playing them. Even when they beat us, we aren't out for revenge. We're just more disappointed in ourselves that we lost to these schools.

Can we get the no announcers thing back?

That would be awesome.

What's funny is all these programs that you are somewhat mocking have been more successful than Texas has been over the last decade excluding Kansas. So in the big 12 that is murderers row if you swapped out Kansas for OU.

The mute button is your friend. I usually mute it or keep it very low. Will unmute when the sideline reporter comes on. But even they mostly talk about emotions, not injury updates.

I agree there is no great rivalry with Missouri. I actually have a soft spot for them.

They left the Big 12 with us. They took the less desirable East spot. They won in the SEC. And Bow tie went there.

That being said BTHO Missouri

I agree that there isn't a strong rivalry with Missouri. They left the Big 12 with us and joined the SEC East. They won back to back SEC East division titles in 2013 and 2014. Beating us in those years was crucial to those division titles. If we had beaten Missouri on the road in 2013, South Carolina would have won the SEC East with a tiebreaking 27-24 double overtime win in Missouri. If we had beaten Missouri at Kyle Field in 2014, Georgia would have won the SEC East with a tiebreaking 34-0 win in Missouri.

With that said, I hope we get a double digit road win at Missouri. This game will be a great indicator of how much we have matured and set the tone for the rest of the season. We have several variables to overcome: 11 AM road game, avoiding letdown from beating Alabama at Kyle Field, and first out of state game since 9/11. Our next road game will be at Ole Miss on 11/13, and that will be our toughest remaining game.

I remember beating Missouri 60-something to nothing at Kyle Field back in the Slocum days when I was there. I want to say 92 or 93.

I honestly don;t get the non-chalant attitude towards missouri

I never lumped them into the iowa st/kansas group

they've had some pretty good teams throughout the years, as has Kansas ST

always like K-St and mizzou and when we were in the big12 those were the north teams I rooted for most

The general sentiment in this thread is confusing. Everyone use to look forward to the game against tu...a grudge match. But we don't want to play them either. I can understand how the games against PVAM and UL-Monroe get on our schedule. As long as we're so indifferent why not?

If you bring up murders row the rule is you have to post the picture.

It was 73-0 in '93--I was there, too.

Now we only have 2 of those places to go annually: Starkville and Columbia SC.

Only 2 memorable things:
1. Dat Nguyen on-side kick return for a TD
2. The FTAB deciding it was a good idea for a
reunion performance and have octagenarians march up and down a ball field in 120F temperatures while playing a trumpet, and the poor BQ having a grabber on the field in front of 80k.

The fact that you remember a Dat Nguyen highlight from the 73-0 game (or any game from 92 or 93) is truly remarkable. I'll let you figure out why.

I guess one of the bigger contrasts between where we are, and where the 'sips are: This would be one of their biggest games of the year.....

Can you imagine a home schedule where the biggest game is okie lite?

One of the main reasons sip is following us to the SEC.
that home slate =/= money

I didn't say it was from 92 or 93, but I'm wrong anyway - I think Dat's TD was against MTSU.

So, only ONE memorable thing about Missouri ...

hopefully A&M doesn't go back to Columbia for another 10 to 15 years.

the atmosphere was as we remembered it
