Texas A&M Football To Play USC & Oregon

Texas A&M has added two perennial football powers to its future football schedule in USC and Oregon, Director of Athletics Bill Byrne announced late Wednesday.

"I am happy to report we will be adding two west coast schools to our football schedule, the USC Trojans and the Oregon Ducks," Byrne said. "When you combine USC and Oregon with the non-conference games we have planned with Arkansas, SMU and others in the coming seasons, I think our future football schedules will be challenging and highly entertaining."

Big time "WOW!"

Seriously, those are some badass moves. Way to go to all parties concerned- A&M for actually signing up, and both Oregon & ‘SC AD’s for doing things right- as it applies to keeping the Pac 10 a cut above the rest of the national conferences in out-of-conference scheduling. (i don’t know about Oregon, but . . . .we’ll show them Big 12 fluff-pieces what real defenses look like!) Blamm!

These games are scheduled so far in advance

that it’s nearly impossible to know what shape either program will be in or how good the game will be, but any time teams from a BCS conference schedule each other and not some D-1AA team it’s good to see.
