Not sure if Aggy is willing to stop playing their new rival in OOC (Sam Houston State Directional), to step up in competition and play the Sun Devils just yet, especially since there will be no more JF....

Why neutral site? I hate those. Sack up and go to their house.

The fact that Aggy is considering stepping up their OOC schedule is good enough, neutral or not. Baby steps.....

Strategic game. It is basically a home game, but gives A&M a chance to let more Houston fans see their games. I have wanted Texas to do the same thing. It is an intelligent use of the schedule. Not sure what ASU gets out of it, but it works for the "local" team.

So, Poor Aggie COULD MAYBE POSSIBLY play Arizona State......

That could be possible maybe news.

But, until then they will stick with the current Lamar, SMU, and Lousiana-Monroe slate.

A&M playing in Houston is hardly a neutral site but whatever.

College Station to Houston = 96 miles

Tempe to Houston = 1100+ miles

Neutral site for A&M?

Our coach has recruiting ties to Texas. We're trying to play one game in Texas every year.

If ASU can win it's a good recruiting tool for Texas kids perhaps.

This is how the SEC rolls with the PAC...

Don't travel any farther than you have to and play a mid tier PAC team IF you do...sound familiar?


Politics...

cept for LSU, they ARE the exclusion when it comes to the SEC.

Don't forget UGA and Tennessee, they have ventured into Pac country recently. UF would shit their pants if they had to play on the West Coast in OOC.....

It's a good start.
