June Jones called to say that Texas A&M canceled an agreement in which the Aggies and SMU were to play a four-game series. A&M paid a lot of money in penalties, Jones said.
Ã¢â‚¬Å“That should help set up an SMU-HawaiÃ¢â‚¬Ëœi series,Ã¢â‚¬

Now that A&M has the annual series with Arkansas at Jerry-World, they've got the DFW exposure they need.

Must not be a done deal. Wording's been changed on the site:

"June Jones called to say that Texas A&M is looking into canceling an agreement in which the Aggies and SMU were to play a four-game series. A&M would have to pay a lot of money in penalties, Jones said."

If we could be competitve, I'd rather play an 'away' game with slightly biased refs at the Cotton Bowl vs. atm than play a jet-lag away game with extremely biased refs in Hawaii.

I'm game for moving the A&M series to the Alamodome...

I have been saying this since the contract was signed. Just surprised they backed out before the second College Station game.
