Texas A&M football has not played Texas since they left for the SEC after the 2011 season. That hasn’t stopped the rivalry from being alive and well.
It mostly centers on whether or not the football teams should play each other again. There are a few schools of thought.
Some Aggies and Longhorns share the idea that the game should be played based on the tradition. It was played more than 100 times in its history. Even though the Longhorns won their fair share of those (more than 70), the last 30 years have been fairly even.
