08:12 AM ET 09.05 | In the run-up to Texas A&M hosting Florida in its first SEC game, a billboard appeared in Gainesville boasting "The Best Academics & Cleanest Program in the SEC." Texas A&M spokesperson Jason Cook clarified the school had no connection to the billboard. "This billboard was not placed by Texas A&M University, and it is certainly not reflective of how we have handled our transition into the SEC," Cook said in a statement. ... Texas A&M has tremendous respect for the University of Florida, and we look forward to hosting the Gators in our first SEC football game this weekend." The billboard, which belongs to Clear Channel Outdoor, was later removed and replaced with an advertisement for the owner.

Best academics and cleanest program in the SEC!
That is and probably always will be Vandy. Also in the article it mentions that UF and TAMU are tied at #58 per U.S. News and World Report

But he won't spend any of it. He's hurting the economy by not spending any of it.
But, my daughters and granddaughters cancel him out so all if fine.

As has been the history of this fine school, the funniest Aggie jokes are the ones they create themselves. At least the College Station sheep [word that modstalker no longer allows, unless it's in one of FN's innumerable threads on Sandusky] didn't try to put up similar billboards in all states with SEC schools; some drivers in North Carolina would be scratching their heads in confusion.
"Clean program"?? Huh?? Can we open this discussion to include the one game suspensions that were imposed for the first game, then deferred when the first game turned out to be against a real opponent?
