Oklahoma is actually a lot better than I thought they would be :(

[b_smith07]

I want to know why Texas Tech isnt ranked in any poll...i mean c'mon if A&M is 25th in the AP poll and 18th in USA Today we should be way inside that; what ranked team has to go into 3OT's to beat a "cupcake" team that should be an easy win? given Tech did come out flat against UTEP, Leach turned the defense aroung in the second half and it was a totally different game. Tech has a legit chance to do some good this year as a younger team, and maybe compete for the Big 12 title. I just cant see A&M beating either Texas or Oklahoma. Dont make this into another trash talking thread, i just cant see them under Fran running the tables.

In the 2005 season they took the "greatest team ever" USC down to the wire.

Tech just isn't a likeable school by the media.

[Stownhorse]

Maybe when Tech runs the ball 25% of the time and they do it efficiently they might break into the top 25. A little tougher pre-conference games might help.

[JR2004]

LSU belongs in that #1 spot. If they wind up playing USC I think it could turn into a rout. That defense is just flat out ridiculous.

yeah, you can say that again.....i wouldnt know why either, to tell you the truth I actually think that watching the air raid offense is fun, so people would watch it on tv, therefore drawing media attention to us. go figure. And yeah i didnt mean to take anything away from fresno state, but i mean if you're a ranked team they shouldn't have had that hard of a time with fresno. case in point: A&M vs. Army. it shouldnt have been that close. period.

An Aggie once told me this motto when things don't go right in their games.


"Blame Fran"

idk....i agree with that defense from LSU...its ridiculus...but i think USC's offense with that rb and WR's......it would be a very good game if they play in the national championship

[Old Tiger]

I remember the offense USC had in 2005 when there was two Heisman trophy winners in the backfield and they lost. :D

Just three more months until ESPN starts their December run of "How would the 2007 USC team do against the greatest teams of all-time" segment.

[burnet44]

Ohio St 20 Akron 2
Texas 21 Arkansas St 13
And USC didn't exactly clobber Idaho last week.

But let's worry about A&M going into 3 overtimes against a team that has a reputation for not backing down from big programs, having played the likes of Oklahoma, USC, Wisconsin, Oregon, and Nebraska in recent years. God A&M!!! Schedule somebody! These Fresno St and Miami scrubs aren't going to get you anywhere.

I heard they are changing it up this year and it will be "How would the 2007 USC Trojans do against NFL teams"
