Let me add, TCU schedules these games (texas, OU, etc..) for the same reason NTSU does. To make money. That's what kept your program afloat back in the SWC, nothings changed. Exactly right. There is one reason, and one reason only that tcu schedules big time games. $$$$$$$. If they could make the same amount of money and go 12-0 playing conference level foes, they would. By the way, Ball State would be able to move the ball on tcu at will. |

I think @ LSU is for 2013 and they are supposed to come here in 2014...we'll see. FSU should be finalized next year. There in 2010. Here in 2011. LSU and FSU are not going to do a home and home with TCU, that's something you do with BCS schools. They might do two at their place and one at TCU, but it is very rare for big time programs to do a home and home with fourth tier teams. |

That's why they schedule the games at FSU and LSU first. Once a better game comes along to replace the game at TCU in 2011, 2014, theyll pull the ole switcheroo.

They might come here.
They do it for recruiting purposes. that way, when Les Miles is sitting in some 5 star stud's living room in Everman, he can say "and we are going to be playing right in your back yard so everyone you know can come and watch."
They play here so they can come show their program off while beating the piss out of some weak little team, gaining valuable exposure in one of the hottest recruiting beds in America.

Arky is as bad as Aggie right now, there will be no piss beating. Just two really bad teams playing each other to make cash money.

It will be a good one. Both programs are at about the same level.

The difference is Arkansas is SEC bad, while Aggie is Big 12 bad. That makes Arkansas better.

Arkansas is just plain bad. period. So is A&M.
but:
Big 12>SEC this year. There are three teams in A&M's DIVISION with legit National Title hopes, and another that is right there with them.
Arkansas gets the likes of Mississippi St, Ole Miss, Auburn this year, and a decent, but not great LSU team. wow.
Arkansas would have the same conference record in the Big 12 that A&M does. A&M would have the same conference record that Arkansas does.

Big 12 will eventually shake out like the SEC has. Your good teams have just now started playing each other.

Really?
There has been a top ten matchup for 6 weeks in a row in the Big 12.
