Spurrier Not Too Impressed By A&M's Schedule

Steve Spurrier appeared before the Columbia Touchdown Club on Wednesday and was asked about the Gamecocks' first opponent, Texas A&M.
"They haven’t played the bigger teams so their schedule has been a little misleading,” Spurrier said of the Aggies according to GoGamecocks.com.
Last year, the Aggies have played Rice, Sam Houston State, SMU and UTEP in their non-conference schedule. Spurrier referred to those team sas “barely Division I.”
The Ol' Ball Coach also feels A&M should play in-state rival Texas again.
"I find it interesting that they quit playing Texas. They played Texas 115 years like we have played Clemson and then they left that Big 12 conference and both schools got mad at each other and said, ‘We aren’t going to play you anymore.’ It would be like us and Clemson saying we are not playing anymore. Our whole state would go crazy. The governor would get involved in that.”
