While the Aggies don’t have the historical prestige or influence of a team like Oklahoma or Nebraska, they are an SEC program.

With every passing day, it seems like more and more programs are gearing up. Iowa, a slightly above mid-level B1G program, is all in on the season.

The dominos are falling and I’m here for it. I’m for that kind of action. We need to band together and commit to playing!

Am I surprised one of the biggest teams in Texas is committing to playing? Not at all. Football in Texas is a religion.

There’s no way they’re sitting out the season.
