Day 274: October 1, 2011

I haven't blogged much about football yet this year- but that's not because of a lack of enthusiasm for the sport.

Texas A&M was officially accepted to the SEC on September 26, 2011. Perfect timing for the annual Southwest Classic football game between the Arkansas Razorbacks and Texas A&M, which is played at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium in Arlington. It was an exciting ballgame, but Texas A&M ran out of time.



The move to the SEC is bittersweet for me. I grew up watching Big 12 football. I spent my fall Saturdays in college tailgating and watching the Aggies play at Kyle Field against other Big 12 teams. I'm looking forward to next football season against different opponents in our new conference.
