Texas vs. Texas A&M used to always be played on Thanksgiving night. Texans would eat their turkey dinner around 1 PM, then settle back for the Cowboys followed by Horns-Aggies.
But changes in the media landscape and changes to conference rosters have changed this tradition forever. Disney doesn’t want to “waste” such a good matchup on Thanksgiving night. They want it two days later on Saturday.
So we all had to wait two more days for the most highly-anticipated episode in this great rivalry’s history. The teams haven’t played each other since 2011. It seems like forever. Johnny Football has happened since. Each team has run through a few coaches since. Each team has expanded their stadium since.
Now, they meet again and hopefully this rivalry won’t get paused again.

Oh boy. This game is the definition of “throw the record books out the window.” On paper, Texas is a much better team. UT is stronger at almost every position. The wild cards are obvious. Kyle Field can be a madhouse, Ewers is gimpy and there’s the pressure of fulfilling expectations with a trip to the SEC Championship Game. I think Texas pulls it out, but it’s not going to be easy.
Prediction: Texas 27, Texas A&M 17
