Timeline of 13 years of pettiness since Texas and Texas A&M last played

On Thanksgiving in 2011, we thought we saw the end of the Texas-Texas A&M football rivalry.

When Texas senior, and future NFL great, Justin Tucker nailed a 40-yard, winning field goal, it gave the Longhorns a 27-25 win over their hated rivals and closed out a series that had been played since 1894.

"It was special," Tucker said at the time. "This is what we play for in college football. ... And being able to put a smile on every Longhorns [fan's] face tonight was special to me.''

It was the end because conference realignment was splitting up the Aggies and Longhorns.
