Well, well, well. The best in-state rivalry in college football is back! Don’t worry Aggys, we won’t flatter you by saying that it’s the best in college football. We all know that’s our other rival, Oklahoma. Your team may be strong this year, but Quinn Ewers is coming to haunt your dreams, just like Justin Tucker has for the last 13 years.

For the first time in 13 years, Longhorn players will have a reason to drive into, not past, College Station. You’ve probably never seen Quinn Ewers on University Drive, but Austin saw plenty of Johnny Manziel, even while he gave the Aggies their only 10-win season since the 90s. This trip will be quick and painless. In the stadium Saturday morning, out on Sunday with a W. The Longhorns won’t have to be back in C-Stat for another year, but don’t worry Aggies: You’re more than welcome to come to 6th Street anytime you want. It’s Aggie tradition, isn’t it, Johnny Football? Just don’t punch any bartenders on your way out!

What does every Aggie have in common? They all got rejected from UT. What I find fascinating is people from A&M will always talk and make fun of Texas, even when there aren’t any Longhorns around. People from UT on the other hand never even mention A&M — try to get us out of your head.

It’s about time that the big brother pays a visit to see his little brother for a family reunion! Enjoy the Lone Star Showdown weekend while you can Aggies, because it’ll be the only time the state of Texas will actually know where College Station is on a map. It must be exhausting running your mouths about how much you hate the Texas Longhorns, but at least for this one Saturday, the constant rambling will be put to use.

So, we meet our little brothers again. It must have been hard staying relevant for the past 13 years. The home of Texas rejects. I wonder how it feels to carry that 2011 loss for so long — y’all were so so close! But close doesn’t make the game. I do hope y’all enjoy having intelligent people in College Station for once. See y’all then!

Oh, my poor poor Aggies. After years of y’all coming to our city for formals and birthday parties, you finally found a way to make your city a travel destination. What will people do when they aren’t at the game, huh? Go to Grand Station to bowl? Your Jimbo Fisher money could have been better spent.

Isn’t it ironic, Aggies, that almost every Texas A&M student I know planned to go to Texas first? When you choose to attend A&M, it’s for one of two reasons — either a low GPA or a record of cult-like behavior. Speaking of cults, your Midnight Yell this year will probably be record-breaking, with masses of students spending their night at Kyle Field and watching the Yell Leaders shake and shimmy across the 50-yard line — they’ll be getting more yards than your football team the next day.
