What does the bad job done at Missouri THEN have to do with the AMAZING job that he's done at Baylor NOW (with 1/3rd of the money and resources that A&M has)???????
aeon-ag said:They have responsibe upper adminstration that can make sound and concise hiring decisions. A&M has a bunch of good ol' boy, hot shot big $$$$$$$$$$ big frog mouth politicians. They can't think past their desire to throw big money around and make loud blowhard decisions. There have been only two football coaches at A&M with the ability to win the big ones, Bryant and Sherrill!!!!!! THAT IS PITIFUL!!!!!!! In the past seventy years A&M cannot hire anything but quick fix coaches. And heaven forbid they hire a a decent coach for any of the other sports. I've watched A&M sports since I can remember, say 1956. It never changes!!!!!! It's the same old crap year after year. I go hunting and fishing now instead of letting my blood pressure get up! IT AIN'T GONNA CHANGE!!!!!!elaggie2002 said:

How do they achieve these results and we can't ?
It's so frustrating.
That maybe it's not him, it's luck and location? He hasn't touched basketball, he inherited those programs.DivalovesChrist said:

This is fooking delusional. In the time since we left for the SEC, we have won less than 8 games once. Baylor has managed to do so 4 times including a 2 win and 1 win season all against competition that is vastly inferior to what we face on an annual basis. Yes, they have made it to the Big 12 title game a couple times, but what the hell does that matter when they have lost every meaningful bowl game they have been to in that timeframe in humiliating fashion?elaggie2002 said:TyperWoods said:

Even after those two terrible situations they still have a better football and basketball program.
Let that sink in.

OP rather play in a 2nd rate conference?
OP doesnt realize what the SEC brand did for our recruiting.
OP also doesn't realize that now there are only 3 conferences (SEC, ACC, B10). everyone else is tertiary. Baylor could go 13-0 in 2026 and still be left out of 4 team playoff.
May be, just may be he is a better coach than jimbo this season...record defines who you are...W said:

how did Kiffin go 10-2 in Year 2...after inhering an absolute trainwreck

Well, they had a lady freak play basketball for them, so of course they'd win in women's basketball. And we did win a championship in women's basketball by beating that freak. Their men's championship befuddles me, but they deserve credit. But before you give them too much credit on the gridiron, realize it's a very high likelihood that if Alabama loses to Georgia in the SECCG, and Baylor loses to Ok St in the B12CG, that they'll probably face each other in the Sugar Bowl. Let's see how they fare against Bama. They've been the benefactor of a watered down Big12, with Texas, Tech, & TCU all having problems. They'll get exposed because they can't do anything outside the Big12.
What would be their record if they played our schedule this season?45-70Ag said:

in the world of college sports...there is a significant advantage to being a big fish in a small pond.
playing in a weaker conference...playing a weaker schedule.
A&M did not choose that route. The Ags play in a big pond with many big fishes

Life (and conference affiliation) isn't fair.

You guys are morons if you even remotely believe Baylor has a better football program than A&M. Jesus....this board!!

I really did think last year was the beginning of our fanbase no longer hiding behind the skirt of our conference affiliation.
Baylor will finish ahead of us in the CFP, AP and Coaches poll. We can try and hang our hat on some hypothetical meeting where we'd be favored, but SEC or not the nation views them as a better team.

Saying stupid things makes people feel better.
No one would trade places with Baylor. We wouldn't rather have their coach. We wouldn't rather be in their conference. We wouldn't rather have their roster. We wouldn't rather have their commit list. We wouldn't rather have their stadium. We wouldn't rather have their facilities.
And to be honest. Most of us wouldn't rather be 10-2 still stuck in the Big 12 than 8-4 in the SEC and the class we have coming in. Baylor has a senior laden team with an easy schedule. That's it. There's nothing really more to dive into.

Per the current sagarin ratings it would be a pick em game at a neutral site. They had a good year and we had a bad year. It happens. Last year would have been much different.

Schedules weren't all that different this year. Ags played 3 currently ranked teams (Bama, Ole Miss and Arkansas). Baylor played 3 ranked teams (Okie State, Oklahoma and BYU). Ags played 8 bowl eligible teams. Baylor played 7.

I think we all know a ranked team in one conference isn't always equal to a ranked team in another conference. Do you really think Cinci is in the Top 5 with our schedule? Do you think Louisina Lafayette is ranked if they played in the BIG or SEC?

Last 5 years football results
Baylor (31-29)
Bowl Record (1-1) No NY6 wins
Final AP rankings (13 in 2019)
Texas A&M (41-20)
Bowl Record (3-1) 1 NY6 win
Final AP rankings (4, 16)
Since they stopped raping their female student body it hasn't been close despite us being in a real conference. It's a shame that some of you set bar so low for us but raise it for everyone else.

I absolutely believe Auburn would give Oklahoma State a game and MSU would beat BYU. Some of you still don't realize the talent disparity between the SEC and other conferences. You'll soon find out when OU becomes a perennial 8 to 9 win team.

2 of those 5 years were Baylor bottoming out with an 1-11 record in 2017 post everyone getting fired and all recruits bailing. In 2020, they had lost Rhule to the NFL and had a weird year with COVID and went 2-7.
2 10 win seasons (potentially 2 11+ win seasons and 2 NY6 bowls) while cycling through 3 coaches and a university scandal that bottomed out the program in the last 5 years isn't that shabby.
