RE: Interesting Info on Southwest Conference

Arkansas played SMU every year in the 90’s with some games at Little Rock.
Texas and Texas A&M pretty much just kept Rice on the schedule here and there.
Baylor played the others the most.
Texas Tech had a few series with the others.
I read one article where I believe it was the A&M AD who said they’d never play the Dallas schools again. What’s the deal with Texas and Texas A&M swearing off SMU and TCU? In the immortal words of T Swift “baby we got bad blood.”
A&M hasnt played Houston since the end of the SWC. I think that could be a fun game for both and I think the local Ag fans would love it. Play the Houston game in NRG. Lots of Aggies in Houston that dont have season tickets and would be up for a one time special game in air conditioned NRG. But the game doesnt happen and its entirely because the Ag's have zero interest in the concept.
