what a great read! I would think A&M is a bit of an anomaly to the SEC bcuseae its uptempo style was more condusive to the Big XII. I’m not sure if TAM would have been as successful in the Big 12 bcuseae they would have faced more teams used to playing against uptempo offenses.West Virginia did well in the Big 12 for a while until facing defenses that had dealt with uptempo offenses.
