Texas A&M officially joining SEC
And so it starts:

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — The Southeastern Conference has accepted Texas A&M as its 13th member, the league announced Sunday
The Aggies will jump from the Big 12 to the SEC effective July 1, with competition to begin in all sports for the 2012-13 academic year.
It is the first expansion for the SEC since September of 1991, when South Carolina joined the league. Arkansas joined in August of 1991.

4. Mississippi State, Starkville
would be a great awakening for you Yankees.
SEC Football has a lot of people hating on it because it dominates your asses.
I don't see this as the end, what will be the next jump?

On a side note, In 1974 I had an Aggie AF Captain in a M113 APC, It was unusual to actually have the FAC with us and I forgot he was in the track. We chewed
tobacco because of the heavy dust and I let a stream of amber out that caught him in the face. I was sorry but I laughed pretty hard. Aggie officers were bigger pricks than West Pointers.
I haven't chewed for 35 years or so.

8. I wouldn't be surprised to see
the SEC go after Oklahoma or OK State and move the Alabama schools to the SEC East, or maybe go after Clemson. I don't think they'll go with an odd number.
