I have never known an AD to go to President to find opponents to schedule. Don't know of a President aligning the opponents and then telling AD who we are playing. If AD goes to to President to get OK, that is not President scheduling TAMU, it is the AD.

Playing a$m in Shreveport in 2012 will be the straw that breaks a lot of Tech fans' backs. We'd better hope this doesn't happen.

First off, Who is LTU?

Second, there is one elevator in Wyly Tower dedicated to go to the 16th floor. Wonder why?

This better be a rumor.

A&M's reported open dates are still September 22, October 13, and November 17.

The only dates that Tech should even have a second thought about playing in Shreveport on would be September 1 and November 17 (quarter breaks). And I don't want to be playing in Shreveport those dates either.

If we win, it's a great game. If we lose, bad idea... :D

No it's a bad idea period

Such BS!!Red for you!

A new coaching staff + new schemes + early in the year + an away game + against a team that took TCU to the mat = TRAP GAME!

I would be worried about this game if I was an Aggie. This could be a VERY good opportunity to take out an SEC team before they get their legs and take advantage of a weak schedule for the remainder of the season. Ruston would obviously be ideal, but this game could be HUGE for us come December.

I agree! The ONLY area where we can significantly improve our fanbase by winning over "casual" fans is s'port/bossier. I have a hunch that we CAN and WILL win this game. I like it! Of course, it's only a 10-15 min drive for me. BRING IT!!

So who gets the "lions share?"

Grambling

Please God, no.

This is just a rumor. I like to believe the administration learned our lesson last time we played in Shreveport and that we should stay the heck out of that place. If we're going to play TAMU, its either in Ruston or no deal.
