A&M should have stuck it out in the Big12 instead of bolting for the SEC. Texas was on a downward spiral when they decided to leave, and they haven't been very good since 2009. A&M could have been the dominant team in that state, Baylor is now at the bottom and might not recover from Briles and his shenanigans, Texas Tech is kind of floundering between bad and decent.
But now A&M must bite the bullet and play Alabama, Auburn, and LSU guaranteed every year along with Mississippi State who is a good program, and then have to play Georgia and Florida at least once every 3? years.
