Cool, another bash Texas thread. I love those.
Texas is actually paranoid about everybody. Texas feels that since it is Texas it is naturally better. The only school that Texas is actually afraid of right now is Oklahoma. If Oklahoma drops its relationship with Texas, Texas would be in deep trouble because of the way Texas has played the realignment game. That is why Dodds and Powers PERSONALLY flew up to Norman in September 2011 with bags of money to soothe the Sooner ego.
In order to play with Texas, you must beat them on the field, in the boardroom, deal with the officiating crews being from Texas and being Texas fans, and in politics. Texas already owns the Big 12 Commissioner and owns the Big 12 officiating crews.
My wager, Texas moves to deal with A&M through the politics of Texas, and not on the field since Texas cannot influence the SEC officiating crews and cannot influence Slive in any way. I will wager that the Texas Permanent University Fund all of a sudden has a problem dispersing money to A&M. I will wager that some State projects somehow don't get going in College Station or in a Texas A&M affiliate school area.
