Anybody interested in A&M?

[BobcatBenny]

Considering they are getting trounced by OSU.

Has Fran's team given up on him?

[Gp83]

Anybody interested in A&M? Nope

[rockdale80]

I support them.

[JR2004]

My gosh they're getting embarrassed badly right now. Can't be much fun being Coach Sellout right now.

[3afan]

17-0

[BobcatBenny]

I guess Fran is throwing down the gaunlets.

I won't resign. So, I dare you to fire me! I double dog dare you! :D

LOL...

[zebrablue2]

no fire on the field in aggieland. they are very flat.

[JR2004]

What in the heck has happened to McGee's arm? That hail mary came up 5 yards short of the end zone...What in the world is going on with him?

[IHStangFan]

yup...I'm interested. I think they'll HAVE to crapcan Fran. He has betrayed his players and they are playing like it. I don't care about the dog and pony show that was put on for the media w/ the "oh the players support Fran" BS!! Behind the scenes things are not well at Aggieland.

[JR2004]

What was Fran's report on Franks? Is it that he has no hands or he's slow?

[IHStangFan]

I almost hate it when UT loses, because its always the same thing....An A&M thread gets started then the disgruntled UT fans sit around and bash A&M. LOL. typical.

[IHStangFan]

here we go again....THIS is what I don't understand....it seems every time A&M gets in the endzone...Lane is not utilized and we're down there trying to throw short passes. WHAT IS THE DEAL W/ THAT KIND OF PLAYCALLING?!?! It lost the OU game last year!! stupid.

Well then bash UT! Good Lord forbid someone say one negative thing about the team involved in the 2nd biggest game on our schedule every year...lol.

Seriously I wanted to know what it was that Fran said about Franks. I just remember his name being one of those mentioned disparagingly by Fran.

[BobcatBenny]

Let me say something positive then.

A&M got 3. :rolleyes:

There you go. You made the call!

nice comeback by aTm .....20-17 OSU but Ags are on the OSU 12

[3afan]

24-20 aTm

[burnet44]

the Corps score
24-20
Fran may hang on another weak lol

[3afan]

24-23 aTm 3:11 to go

[3afan]

aTm wins

[aggiebrandon]

the comeback makes this a pretty funny thread ;)

[IHStangFan]

nice come from behind win Ags!! SO....yeah...I'm interested. :)

[Global Swarming]

Ags win

[burnet44]

the Corp wins
next week its 2000 for the Insider

[BobcatBenny]

Well, I guess they like Fran after all? :D

[JR2004]

This win is big for the rest of the BIG XII. Every win that Fran gets makes it harder for his boss to fire him despite the outcry to fire him.

I'm taking Tech next week by 30. The potbangers will be out in full force after that one.

[aggiebrandon]

at least double it and charge 2400 lol

[zebrablue2]

ags were a different team in the second half. go figure.

[aggiebrandon]

hey zebrablue2, I talked to you the other day at the Bellville freshman game...I was with the officers at the ramp of the bleachers :)

Any chance at halftime he had to cut a $1200 check to each of his players to make them like him again? :inlove:

Congrats to A&M's #70 Cody Wallace (Cuero grad) for being the FSN player of the week:clap: :clap:

Hell yeah it does. The locker room was intense, and after the game it was a great place to be. I think it was really a defining moment for us as a team, even more than the Fresno State game. Good things ARE happening in Aggieland behind the scenes, so don't count us out just yet, we're still sitting on top in the Big XII South last time I checked.

For one more week. The run ends in Lubbock. Hopefully though the game won't have an impact on Fran's job status. Texas and OU need him to stick around while both are going through growing pains.

Can you give me the lottery numbers since you can look into the future? :hand: :doh:

Tech has had A&M's number in Lubbock since you were about 6 or so. Nothing's changing this time around. If a Mike Leach coached team gets up for one game each year it'd be this one. Tech has the homefield advantage and has the better offense.

Yeah, but they don't have much of a defense, and if ours plays like it did in the second half, who knows what could happen. I'm just going to go ahead and support my teammates and go to practice tomorrow optimistic for a win, regardless of what you might think.

Absolutely. After the first half, I thought this was going to be another Miami. At the end of the third, things were looking good.

I was there, Gary. Amanda and I looked for you, but we were on the student side and couldn't really see the other side of the field.

My thoughts on the game...

-I think everyone picked up on this. Simple, but true, it was a tale of two halves. Like zebra said, the A&M team that took the field the second half was a completely different team than the one that took the field in the first half.

-A&M's inability to stop the run killed them tonight. That little #22 was pretty dang good, but the offensive line made him look even better than he was. If the Ags' d-line can get off the ball quicker, it'll be a completely different story later in the season.

-Sloppy tackling on the Aggies' part. Where were you, Gary? We needed you. Guys weren't wrapping up, weren't breaking down in the open field, tackling too high, and weren't even trying to tackle, just trying to hit. I remember one play in the first half, Zac Robinson took off towards the outside and had two defenders in pursuit with another (I forget who it was) coming up in support. The guy running up from the defensive backfield just put his head down and ran right by Robinson. On another play in the second half, two or three d-linemen had #24 cornered on the right hashes the backfield. They went high, #24 just ducked and cut back inside for a nice chunk of yards. Again, terrible tackling.

-Seemed like the DB's had more problems playing zone than man up. Sure, this may be the best group of WR's in the Big XII (and yes, I'm putting them right there with UT and OU), but A&M did a pretty good job when they slipped into man coverage.

-I hate to say this about a Texas boy, but OSU was a completely different team with Bobby Reid in the game. He's definitely more athletic than Robinson (though Robinson's no slouch), but the offense became stagnant when he entered the game. Looks like Darnell took advantage of it, too, going straight after him with several blitzes right off the bat. Got to him a few times, too, and really disrupted that offense. Huge difference between his ability to handle pressure and Zac Robinson's.




Gary, that defense of yours is pretty close to being a nice little defense. It's the small things that killed you tonight, but nothing that can't be fixed. Big test next week in Lubbock. I'll be there. Good luck, man.

I was standing on the sideline, pretty much just enjoying the game. It was an exciting second half and a fun game to watch, that's for sure.

were you the one they were taking away in hand-cuffs? LOL. I was kinda in a daze after speaking with biggio. remember the officers and coach C. do you go to A&M? my son is up there. he is a jr.

[aggiebrandon]

lol nope :) I work at the local sheriff's office and they called me to let me know he was there since they know i'm a huge Astros fan. I came up there to meet him and ended up helping escort him out of the stadium after the game :)

I'm class of 01 but graduated in 03 due to a fourth year major change.

Just had my 10 year high school reunion this year lol

j/k good to have u, although i wish it was longhornbrandon



p.s. my names brandon too....... how cool is that?

[aggiebrandon]

I'm mainly a lurker but this thread was too good to pass up :)

Both universities are great in my opinion. A&M is stronger in some aspects and UT is stronger in others. In fact I have a friend I graduated with who got her masters at A&M and then attend Law School at UT. She even went to the rose bowl in burnt orange hissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
