Game Day Open Thread: Texas A&M Aggies at #2 Texas Longhorns

Pb6_tiny by Peter Bean on in Football Comment 934 comments

Texas A&M Aggies at Texas Longhorns, Nov 27, 2008 7:00 PM CST


I woke up battling the flu today, so no pregame analysis from me. Or, rather, some very concise analysis: Win, Texas. Win big. As big as you can.

Down with McGee. Down with A&M.

Happy Thanksgiving all... and Hook 'em Horns.

It's easy to remember

the lackluster performances of the Horns against aggy the last couple years, but we’ve not played well against them the last four years. Common sense points to a blowout tonight, but recent history gives me plenty to be concerned with.

I hope we come out with a Mizzou-type effort and bury these jokers quickly, then dance upon their graves until the final gun.

TEEEEEEEEEEEEXXXXXAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

35-0 halftime would go a very long way

The way I see it

we are down by 28 at kickoff. If we want this game to do what we need it to, we have to come out and play like we are about thirty in the hole from the start.

If you're so sure of what it ain't, how about telling us what it am!

I’m pleased we’re winning, but if I’m a casual observer, I’m not impressed. Why is GD reverting to his OU gameplan circa 2003. 2-yard out-routes and screens? Are they afraid of A&M’s defense?

Come on, lets go deep over the middle, this conservative gameplan isn’t wowing anybody, and we NEED wow points. They had to have know this coming into the game, what is GD thinking????

I estimate

that we have the nation’s attention for maybe the first half, and we’re already inching close to halftime. THis game is as much about impressing voters as anything, and nothing in this game so far would make a decent Sportscenter highlight.

This is why the Aggies lose. Just trying to keep it a game, not trying to win. Fine by you guys, though, eh?

Similar call Sherman made against Tech

This is not the NFL.

Sherman told his team, “I have zero confidence in you.”

Giving up 3 points to them in the 1st 2 quarters is not bad

but only scoring 14 is not good. I hope we can get a TD before half time.

Lets net even let it get to 3rd down from now on…

Damn, I thought it would have been Shipley. Playing cagey, I was.

And a truly Heisman move to get out and then make the pass.

by Displaced Longhorn on Nov 27, 2008 8:27 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

whoa, there...missed the point

What I mean is the fact that he’s such a good athlete, it would be tough. If you had a Harrell or Bradford tonight, with all the pressure, it’d be tough.

by Tech92 on Nov 27, 2008 8:28 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Leadership in action.

Not the nice clean passer but an all over the field player, more in the Tebow mold than either Harrell or Bradford. He’s a football player in a way they aren’t.

Considering the last several A&M games, this is a pretty good outcome.

And the Horns can play much better, on offense anyway. Defense is just going to party.

We're relied so much on offense this season, but the D is seriously coming around.

That’s one of the best thing that could evolve over the next 14-15 games or so.

while i agree the defense is coming through, the turf is helping them. it’s hurting every offensive play. no one can cut.

and thoughts of second half defensive points
came to my head

by abcdmetrius on Nov 27, 2008 9:29 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

I can see that logic. The ags are holding as tough as they can.

Besides, the fresh legs of some subs might do wonders. Everyone wants to score on the aggies.

by whills on Nov 27, 2008 9:30 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

oh no, i meant bad second half points

like when we were shutting out teams
then JCfumbles2 came in the game
and then the other teams defense scores
