There's a few ways to look at it. A&M probably looks down on poor ol UH...and they don't need you to penetrate the Houston market. They're well represented on their own.

Baylor's interesting. They've been pretty crummy up until they took your coach, so you could make an argument they're avoiding you. Then again, some of those years weren't UH's proudest moments. I wonder if UH even has any interest in playing a team that's been accused of politicking you out of the last Big 12 spot?

We are open to all takers among those "big boys". Willing and ready to prove the naysayers wrong or go down fighting.

Problem is we are never given the chance.

A&M uses the market penetration argument all the time. Problem with that is we were ok to play before the SWC but not after for some reason....

In Mens BB we played 33 times prior to the SWC and twice after....
In FB we played 14 times (in the first 18 years of our program) prior to the SWC including ever year between 1952 (our first meeting) -1965 and never again.....
