    Seems kinda unfair that we have to travel out west AGAIN next year. I just hope we get somebody good like Arizona/UCLA on the return...

    This is a good idea. Pac10 fans get no thrill from playing WAC or Mountain West teams and they've never heard of a lot of the eastern schools. This series should be lots of fun and good experience for both sides.

    I think the Aggies got a LOT of benefit from the trip to LA to play UCLA in December. Although we lost it didn't cost us much in ranking, but gave the younger guys a taste of tourney atmosphere.


    A lot of folks whine that a football playoff would make the season meaningless, but even if that was somewhat true, we get MUCH better intersectional games like you see in basketball...


    It would be really cool if Washington St was to visit College Station. Kes and I could go at each other big time!! :lol:

    Good stuff...

    <t>For all involved. I know the ACC/Big 10 challenge has had many top matchups I've enjoyed watching since they started that. Now that UCLA has a legit coach and USC does as well those two will be real good in the upcoming years.<br/>

    I'll be watching !!</t>

    I like it. It's good for both conferences and it should create even more interest among the fans.

    Arizona has history with Texas, Kansas and Oklahoma, so it will be nice to play additional schools from the conference. After the game the Aggies gave UCLA in the Wooden Classic I'm glad we got that matchup at home.
