[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 812447, member: 2426"] A&M has been doing better in the SEC than they did in the Big12. In the 9 years before joining the SEC, A&M won 58 games as a member of the Big12. In the 9 years since joining the SEC, they have won 77 games. Sure they would like to go to the playoffs, but how many times did they make the CFP championship game as a member of the Big12? The conversation we are having isn't about whether A&M would like to make the playoffs, it is about whether playing in the SEC is sooo tough that schools from another conference can't possibly succeed. When A&M changed from Big12 competition to SEC competition, their record improved, and has stayed improved. They didn't go down to 3 wins a season. They increased from 6.5 per season to 8.5 per season. Missouri was at a high point when they joined the SEC. They remained at that high point for a few years (2005-2014), and went back down to their historical norms. They are currently doing about the same or a little better than what they did in the 20 years prior to 2005 in the Big8 and Big12. [/QUOTE]
