Texas is going through a milder version of what we suffered since the last years of Fulmer’s tenure. Under Dooley, Butch, and especially Pruitt, one could have easily argued that we didn’t look like we deserved to be in the conference either. Tennessee endured more than a decade of absolute incompetence. Texas has gone through something similar.
Personally, I like Texas a lot more than A&M and the other “recent” add-ons to the SEC, especially Missouri. Once they get some continuity under some competent leadership and coaching (without too much big donor meddling), they’ll be a significant force again. Too much talent and resources at their disposal for them to be down forever.

I thought about this Mo. thing most of the game yesterday. I came to the conclusion after beating them badly, I had no feeling one way or the other about the outcome. (don't have to contemplate a loss this year) I got to thinking there is nothing about Mo. sports that I have any interest of feeling about at all. I wonder as many do, why we ever took them into the SEC.. TV, recruiting grounds??? We really don't need the state of Mo. TV exposure nor do we really need their recruits. In football, we would (the conference as a whole) get most of the guys we go after because, well, most want to play in this or an equal conference. I think they (Mo) would have been a better fit all the way around in the Big 10.
