Cotton Bowl 2013 A&M vs OU

[hollywood]

Who ya got and what's your prediction?

[Bullaholic]

I like the Ags by 7 in this one. I think the game comes down to which offense makes the fewest mistakes and gets in rhythm the fastest. All hype asise---Manziel is just one of those on in a decade "magic" players who just finds a way to win with both luck and skill on his side.

[Saggy Aggie]

Interested to see a&m's offensive play calling with the RB coach calling plays.

I'm a homer. Aggies by 14.

Im a homer as well. Give me the Ags. Dont fool yourself, Sumlin will have a lot to say on which plays are called.

Yeah sumlin will be involved but the primary play caller is the RB coach so we'll see. I don't see it being an issue.

[Gsquared]

Pulling for the Aggies but OU is going to win this game.

Lyin' hound---you got money on them Land Grabbers don't ya....:D

[Sville]

TAMU by 3 TDs. Landry craps his pants when he is consistently pressured and the Wreckin Crew will be in his face all night.

Really dont matter. The best play is the one the JFF improvises.

I'm taking the Ags by 10 pulling away. I dislike OU a LOT more than I do the Ags. I like watching JM. I actually like the Ags uni's. Maroon isn't ugly to me. Ags are still a Texas team even though not in the Big 12.

[hollywood]

You wanna know why the dirt is red in Oklahoma??

[Roughneck93]

A&M by 7.

[NastySlot]

I ll take the Aggies ......but I am really nervous.

[Tejastrue]

Never thought I would be picking the Sooners...ever... but I think all the JFF Heisman hype will give OU an extra incentive and the edge to win by 10.

[Saggy Aggie]

Almost game time!

Gig 'em, Aggies! :)

[hollywood]

You wanna know why the dirt is red in Oklahoma??

Well, since no one has answered... Because it's embarrassed to be there too!

Bahahahaha!

:D

Enjoy the game everyone! Good night for football.

[Deuce]

Ags by 7. At least that's where my $ is riding.

[regaleagle]

Good start for the Ags so far. They look sharp

[regaleagle]

Wowee! How do you like that one???

[regaleagle]

Saggie, are you at the game?

[hollywood]

Hoodenie Football does it again! Kid is amazing

[movethechain]

For those still doubting who the best college player is ... He just gave you a highlight reel on the first drive. Wow!

[regaleagle]

No question he has that extra something to get the job done.

[regaleagle]

Looks like OU is purposely not wanting to rush the qb, but to play containment.

[Saggy Aggie]

Saggie, are you at the game?

Nah, I couldn't afford a couple hundred a ticket lol

[NastySlot]

Oklahoma by 10

Wow sip going with daddy ou .amazing big 12 saviors?

[regaleagle]

My allegiance lies with Texas teams anyday over OU.

[Saggy Aggie]

That was a perfect pass by Manziel that should've been a TD but instead the drop and an INT

[99IHSMustang]

As rushed as he was to throw it, I agree there was no reason not to catch that pass.

[movethechain]

I expect Kennedy to get more than one more chance to make up for that missed catch.

[FB-fanatic]

Needed a mistake. Time to roll and finish. Go Ags!

[FB-fanatic]

TD! Manziel!

[Bullaholic]

We're watching a very, very special player. I've seen players be electric in streaks, but nothing like Manziel---he just doesn't make mistakes and is as quick and resourceful as any player I have ever seen,

[Saggy Aggie]

Should be 21-6...

[Bullaholic]

Should be 21-6...

Hey Saggy---your maroon undies are showing....:D

[Roughneck93]

Huge loss for A&M if Swope can't come back.

[Saggy Aggie]

Hey Saggy---your maroon undies are showing....:D

They scored the TD after my post... So it should be 21-13... But seriously... That dropped TD in the end zone that ended up being an INT... A&M should have 21 points.


Also not getting any help from the refs. They've been quick to throw flags on A&M but have not called 2 defensive pass interferences on OU that I thought were pretty obvious but I'm prolly just biased

[Rabid Cougar]

Officiating SUCKS! :mad:

[Saggy Aggie]

A&M beating OU and the refs

[99IHSMustang]

A&M is playing very well.

[Roughneck93]

This game is about to get out of hand.

[Saggy Aggie]

Smh bertolet.


Should be 35-13....

[Roughneck93]

Yikes!!!

[99IHSMustang]

I think that TD sealed the win for A&M.

[Saggy Aggie]

Should be 42-13...

[Saggy Aggie]

How bout that tough big 12 and weak SEC?

Where's ole MSU?

[99IHSMustang]

So let me get this straight, you are down by 21 points and you punt near the 50 yard line... :confused:

[BEAST]

Oklahoma by 10

Go Blue, your orange heart led you astray. Lol!!




BEAST

[FB-fanatic]

Toast!

[ethsfbnut]

Hoping for a lot better game. JF just too much.

[Saggy Aggie]

Should be 49-13...

[BEAST]

What was the nOU / TU score again?

[YTBulldogs]

I'm a Longhorn fan, but--A&M is the best team in the country this year. They'd beat Bama or ND by 20 IMO.

I agree. Just like the 2005 Horns were. Just wish we'd get this chance.

[YTBulldogs]

Sumlin and Johnnie Football are a perfect match. NC or two forthcoming. Gotta give a shout out to the "hogs". They are awesome in protecting and creating holes.

[Saggy Aggie]

Oline played great tonight.

A&M could argue they're the best team in the country.

Aggies were a kicker away from being national champions this year :(

They'll get one or two in next three years IMO. Exciting team to watch.

[regaleagle]

A&M and Oregon, if you ask me. I don't know how Oregon lost, but so did A&M.

[ethsfbnut]

Reckon those nd people still think their lb is best in college football?

[regaleagle]

Lou Holtz does, lol.

[YTBulldogs]

ND could of had 4 loses. But, they didn't and are in the show. That's the D1 system we play with.

[Saggy Aggie]

4th place SEC team just whipped the big 12 co-champion's ass.

SEC is weak...

Lol they won 6 national championships in a row without A&M. If say they were doing okay..

[Scoop27]

Give credit to the Aggies from a Longhorn fan-Wish TCU could have won to make it a Texas sweep in bowl games.
Even though OU creamed the Longhorns they were a little overated

Just goes to show you Texas talent with good coaching can win in any conference , stopping knocking Texas talent. Does not matter what conference your in when you have good Texas talent with good coaching, A&M played well again tonight and Johnny Football is just unstopable and would make any team hard to beat.

BTW, thank you lord for sending us little Johnnie football.

But the true Texas team won, Good game A&M - Texas talent- Be proud of it.

[Scoop27]

Hope Sam Houston can win tomorrow

Had to put this in, cause they list him at 6-1, but in his 1/2 time interveiw he said he was 6 ft-- 72 inches. This kid could be the best college QB ever, and it was such a pleasure watching him this season.Big time Q's to his line, those boys can flat out block.............

[big daddy russ]

Hell of a game. A&M could play with any of the top teams this year. Already proved it.

I think A&M will be a popular pick to win the NC next year, but they're gonna miss that O-Line. Anyone would. Also gonna miss Demontre Moore and #99. Need to replace those guys.

Give it two years.

Give it two years. Well, no one has said if Matthews and Joeckel are going pro yet, and even if they do, Oline is A&Ms biggest strength as far as depth goes. They obviously wont be as good as those 2, but they'll still be well above average.

Heck of a freshman class coming in. Idk, They're gonna be good but it remains to be seen just how good.

[Weebe]

Lol... Big 12 is great.

True that. I don't see how Joeckel could pass up that type of opportunity (he'll go top ten for sure), but the lure of finishing his degree and winning a NC may be enough. We'll see.

[Saggy Aggie]

I would be ecstatic if he stayed but obviously wouldn't blame him if he went. I've heard as high as top 3.

Even if he goes though, I won't be concerned about the oline. I'll be more concerned defensively. Several key players on that side of the ball graduating and Moore leaving for the draft

[Papá Oso]

Hoping they do but I can't see either one of them coming back, seen mock drafts with Joeckel 1 or 2 and Matthews around 10. They also had Moore around 5 or 6 so that could be 3 Aggies in the top 10, my how have things changed. Got to hand it to Sherman for knowing how to spot the big uglies.


PO

[big daddy russ]

As long as they have a pass-rushing athlete in the mold of Moore or Von Miller, that defense will run like clockwork. I know, easier said than done. But I'd imagine they have a long, rangy freak stockpiled somewhere in all that talent.

Assuming the two best tackles in the college game leave with Moore, who fills those shoes? Also, don't they lose those other two LB's--#10 and #11? Any idea of the dropoff from any of these guys to their replacements?

[1st and goal]

Yes, Ags looked awesome. It will be interesting to see who stays, but could opt out.


Manziel proved critics wrong and his voters right. I will miss the outgoing seniors and I know they will be tough to replace. Awesome group of outgoing seniors. I feel they could beat ND right now with the momentum they have. I hope the seniors all get a chance to play in the NFL, especially Swopes.


Go Blue, been kind of a tough football year for you.

No comments from Pancho yet?

Good to see many of the Longhorn fans giving kudos, but some still are not entirely in good taste if you read between the lines.

Doesn't bother me regardless of how the season went for the Horns. Yeah I expect more but I've come to terms and realized that Mack needs to go after the 2011 season.


Will definitely be interesting to see what Joeckel and Matthews decide. Manziel has all the time in the world back there then when nothing develops he takes off.

Would love to hear your witty assessment of the game Tigger! Any more strength of conference stuff you would like to add, with your conference co-champions both getting blown away?? And where did Big Country and MSU go???

As a lifelong Horns fan it almost feels like I'm cheating on my wife when I root for the Aggies!? The kid is amazing and he can't even buy a beer yet! Great things to come for A&M.

Thank God the Longhorns didn't play them!

Classy post. I wish all the tshirt teasips were this gracious. Thanks and Gig Em.

[1st and goal]

Wonder where the Ags end up in the polls and why? If the pundits keep in mind that the 2 losses could have been wins if the kicks went through the uprights... I guess I'm looking for arguments as to who will end up ranked higher and why?

I truly feel that the Ags could give ND all they want, and if Oregon played the Ags, the score would have been closer but the Aggies D would have been the difference. But we'll never know.

Bet it's gonna be even harder to get tickets to next year's games.

[waterboy]

If Alabama beats Notre Dame tonight, where will that leave A&M? To be honest, I don't think either of the teams in the MNC game could beat A&M. A&M has already beaten Alabama. I honestly think A&M's defense could slow Oregon's offense enough to beat them by at least a couple of TDs. I know they are going to a +1 next year, which will give the top four teams a chance at a playoff, but until they go to a TRUE playoff format it'll always being considered a MNC, in my opinion.

Johnny Football is amazing. I haven't seen a player that can dominate a game like that in a long time. He is a smaller version of Vince Young, but with a much better arm, better decision-making abilities, and much more elusiveness. Cam Newton couldn't hold a candle to JF, in my opinion. Of course, you could make an argument that A&M has the best offensive line in football, too. JF couldn't be nearly as effective if it weren't for their dominance.

[lostaussie]

I believe Ags end up between 3rd and 5th. Which is where they probably should be. I also believe they start next season in top 3. History says they can't hold up to that type of pressure.............but these aren't you Daddy's Ags either. Future should be fun.
