With all the record diving people have been doing this weekend, I started wondering about how Texas has fared against its fellow Blue Bloods. The club membership isn’t precise, but I figured twelve would be an interesting sample. Most lists agree on the following being the set. Some also had Miami, Tennessee and a few others, but I biased toward those doing well in the modern area (also loosely defined).
Texas has a winning record against 8 of 11 Blue-bloods (73%), especially those doing well in the very recent past.
