Texas A&M Takin Shots at the Throne

"What do the moon and Texas A&M have in common? They both control the Tide."-Texas A&M athletic director Eric Hyman

Texas A&M athletic director Eric Hyman is the latest administrator to stir the pot in college football smack talk while speaking to boosters.

These meetings are comparable to political rallies, with coaches, ADs and presidents playing the role of the candidate, firing up the fans with exactly what they want to hear. On Thursday night, Hyman kicked off the Brazos County A&M Club Coach's Night with a one-liner for the ages.

CIRCLE THE CALENDAR
Alabama vs. Texas A&M on Sept. 14 on CBS
"What do the moon and Texas A&M have in common? They both control the Tide."

Brent Zwerneman was on hand to hear the quotes and share them with the world via Twitter. Of course, Hyman was referencing the Aggies 29-24 upset of Alabama in 2012. Before introducing Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin, Hyman added that he "wants to be able to say the same thing" in 2014.

Alabama will visit Kyle Field on Sept. 14 for the season opener of the SEC on CBS Game of the Week. Last season's upset has quickly made this year's game one of the highlights of the early-season schedule, a lightning rod for chatter in SEC country.

After Zwerneman posted the quotes to Twitter, that's when the real fun started.

First ESPN's Paul Finebaum chimed in, which led to a response from Texas A&M

I honestly hope bama, LSU and the entire SEC beats this NEW-TO-THE-PARTY ass team by 50, every week, ASAP.

You have NO HISTORY OF SUCCESS. you have one national title ever and you beat TULANE to win it. The entire heritage southwest conference owns you. You have 22 all americans EVER . TN makes aTm look like SMU.

Congratulations on being somewhere between Ole Miss and Arkansas in historical relevance in the south

Nobody gave a fukk about A&M when they were in the Big 12 because they were kept in their place and couldn't talk shyt.

The all mighty SEC let these gay corps brigade come in and run rough shed on them and now all I hear is A&M this A&M that.

Going to the SEC is the best thing to ever happen to A&M. It's like they got a new identity. A new swagger. It rejuvenated the program.
