TAMU vs. The University of TexasPre-game comments and predictions“Gosh it will be hard replacing Glenn- we've only got TWO blue chip LBs in Christian Rodriguez (two letters) and Jarrod Penright to fill in. This is Texas A&M, our second team LBs are better than your starters.”“Beau Trahan will be starting for you sips in the Insight.com bowl once we knock Chrissy out of the game mentally and physically. I've watched him play and he has no clue how to read a 3-4, can't look off more than one receiver, doesn't get rid of the ball well and is useless outside of the pocket. He'll be so confused and demoralized he'll have to be pulled from the game.”“Simms is sure to spread the ball evenly between Texas A&M defensive backs in the 'wide open spread offense'. It should be quite a show. I say Davis gets two interceptions, and Brooks blocks at least one punt (that's a given).”“Face it, tu fans don't know squat about football.”13 0 Branding Iron“Sammy Davis is going to be the best corner on the field Friday, helping us to limit Williams without as much double teaming.”“ If you have to play Simms, we have the advantage here.”“I do think we have the advantage on offense with a better QB and deeper receiving corps.” LOYAL AG“If Applewhite starts it will be a good game, if Simms starts we will win by 10+.”Aggie92

“Simms Sucks! With Glenn out for the game, it levels the playing field a little more with Simms in the game. We can count on at least 2 interceptions.”

“ If Simms starts, he will be thoroughly confused by the schemes Hank & RC will devise.”
“I am more confident in an A&M win than I have been in years.”
“Experience from tough games earlier in the season will be the difference in this game, and we hold the ace in that area.......no question.”
Trader Ag 96

“Tu has no pass defense, Farris will shread it to pieces. Also, all we have to do is stop Roy Williams, Candy man will handle him, and stop the midget running back, and our speedy linebackers will handle him.”

“No way can Sims take over a game like Major can. Our offense will score 25-35 pts.”

“ Simms will throw an INT for a TD, or will at least lead to a TD. Bethel or Brooks will block a punt. The crowd will be quiet and all of their fears will unfold before them: A&M is FOR REAL!”

“We basically laid the shut-out on Iowa State, allowing them to score only in the last 5 minutes of the game. They've got a better QB than Simms in Rosenfels, and a better receiver than anything y'all have in Austin.”

Thanks for the fun read.

It's even more entertaining to go see what 13-0 is saying these days. That aggie has turned into one bitter little girl!

And I love it.

These are so fun to read after a game like that.

I would hate to see OU's list from statements made by us prior to Oct. 7
 
Funniest post I've read in months. Thank you for your in depth research into the aggy psychic network.

I know these posts could have gone the other way if we had lost the game.... but we didn't.

Has Trinity Ag eaten crow? I know he posts on this board. I guess ags are used to embarrassing themselves in public.

"cangie man" hit the nail on the head, the same could have been done to you guys after last years game, after the Stanford game, after the OU game this year, etc. Just turns out its our turn to eat crow, which is part of the rivalry. You guys had to put up with 20-16 for 365, now its our turn, you've won that right until next T+1 when we'll decide it again. Congrats.

Thank you for all the hard work -- not the typing and cataloging -- the listening to those goobers to begin with.

MAC94:

You are right, of course.

But if you don't know the difference between 20-16 and 43-17, you are not only bad at math, you don't know a bit about college football either.




It'd be a lot cooler if you did...
 
Wooderson -

Of course I know the difference, but if you know anything about college ball, this years score has no bearing on next years. At least, you better hope it doesn't.

"our second team LBs are better than your starters.”
“I do think we have the advantage on offense with a better QB and deeper receiving corps.”
“I'll take our young DB's against their WR's all day.”
“A&M won't roll over like the other patsies ya'll have played at home this year.”

Yeah, these guys really know their stuff!

I just noticed "redfish's" comments on UTdoa's post...has John Candalaria joined a&m as a DB? I don't know of any other "Candy Man," or anyone else worthy of that moniker.
 
OK....I just got it...Sammy Davis, "the Candy Man can," etc.

I think John Candalaria would have done a better job covering Roy.
 
You know, I'm generally tired of this type of 'living-in-the-past' kind of post this far post-game, but you know what?

I'm not.

Play it again, UTdoa. Please. Play it again.

Pure classic Aggie wisdom.

Thanks.
 
What makes it so sweet now is that they're singing such a different tune..."Simms is better than Applewhite"..."We had injuries"...etc.
 
It's good to have scoreboard.

Beyond just winning the game, though, it's fun to read the ridiculous specific claims -- Christian Rodriguez, ooooooh, stop it, you're scaring me!

Looks like merch was working on the injuries line even before the game. He's a visionary.

Please tell me somebody has tried to link this on the A&M board. Please, just tell me someone has tried, even though I know it wouldn't last long.
 
Great thread -- I couldn't help but add a few more gems found on a "match-up" thread:"WR – Roy William is a good young player with a bright future for Texas. He will still need to prove that he is capable of getting open against Big 12 top corners. Ferguson is handdown the best receiver in the conference, even when he was less than 100% as in the OU game. Bethel Johnson is a force on the other side. A&M receiving corp is deep on both talent and experience. Advange – A&M huge."Observer

-----------------------------

"WR's: If Ferguson plays, huge advantage A&M. If not, slight advantage A&M. We only dropped a few passes this year, one against ND and several against OU. I would not expect that again. We have blazing speed guys, and we have super hands guys. UT just has several good young all around receivers."
cbramey

------------------------------

"WR - Advantage A&M

We simply have more talent. Get back with me in 2 more years and I would say Texas, but the smple fact is that while Williams and Johnson have put up good numebrs they have yet to play in a game of this magnitude with the exception of OU. Ferguson and Bethel are further ahead than oy and BJ at this point. Add in Taylor, Porter and Goins and we have just as much depth if not better."

"Jammer and Brown are not that good IMO. Jammer has been burnt quite often this season and things could get much worse if he is left isolated with Ferguson or Bethel."
Wrecking Crew 4 Life

"Davis will cover Willaims mano to mano, with Kiel waiting to apply the hit that will show the nation that Williams cant not and will not play when pain is invloved.

BJ will meet another true name Buhl who can and will match him step for step. You guys were so wrapped up in your overhyped team you failed to notice these so called sleepers.
Sloan will be covered by Sean Weston and that is a fair matchup."

Let's not be too hard on CRod. After all, he would've played better but he was still traumatized by his "encounter" with Tinkles at the Dixie Chicken the prior weekend.
This one is too good to let it slip off the front page just yet. TTT

Ah, just when the luster of the win was beginning to die just a little bit, I read this and it's right back where it was.
I love reading how their freshman DBs were a fair matchup with our WRs, then recalling the torrent of excuses about injuries, playing young players, etc...

"(A&M) is a running team that thinks it can pass just enough to get themselves into trouble." - Terry Bowden, with his one entertaining comment of the season.
 
I don't know which was more fun - watching the game again last night or re-reading those posts.

"Not fair? Who are the ****ing nihilists around here anyway, you bunch of ****ing crybabys." - Walter Sopchek.
 
Cbramey is the biggest dope on that whole board. You could tell him that the sky is blue and he'd argue that it has a maroon tint.

I think that this thread ----- at least the post that started it ---- needs to be archived eternally, perhaps in the classics section, so that we can referernce it at will.

Where are we going? And what's with this handbasket?
 
You can never say something that makes the ags look as dumb as the things that come out of their own mouths.

They remind me of someone who has a "kick me" or "i'm stupid" sign on their back. They look like a f'n idiot, but they don't have a clue.
