Little Brother's Big Day: Aggies vs. Tigers Game Thread

The Aggies are playing in the Cotton Bowl at 7PM on ESPN FOX (HD).
The Aggies haven't won a bowl game since 2001.
What will happen: This is going to be a bruiser of a game. It will be a defensive battle, and the game is going to be won by the team who is the toughest and most aggressive. A&M was playing, at the end of the season, like the best team in the Big 12. The Aggies will put together another incredible defensive performance, and Gray will rush for a big third-quarter touchdown as A&M gets its tenth win of the season over one of the country's best teams.
A&M 13, LSU 10
This is one thing the Aggies just shouldn't do.
Don't kick it to Patrick Peterson. Just don't. LSU's return man ranks fourth nationally with over 16 yards per punt return, and has taken a pair of punts back for touchdowns already this year.
A little overly dramatic, don't you think? The Aggies' future is on the line.
"We don't want to go back to the mediocre days in College Station," Miller said. "There's a lot of perks that come with winning and we just want to keep it going."
For A&M, a school that posted losing records in both of Sherman's first two seasons in Aggieland, tonight's outcome means everything in terms of how much the 2010 turnaround resonates on the national level.
A&M's offensive line is fresh.
How rare is A&M's freshman tackle tandem in a college football world where most offensive linemen redshirt, rather than play, in their first season on campus? Tom Rossley, A&M's quarterbacks coach/passing game coordinator, said he's never coached on a staff that started two incoming freshmen at offensive tackle.
So that's what happened...
For the first time since Texas A&M made its midseason change of starting quarterbacks, Aggies quarterbacks coach Tom Rossley acknowledged Monday that the move was made in part because of concerns about the arm strength of senior Jerrod Johnson.
Johnson, who underwent off-season surgery on his throwing shoulder, is the Aggies' career leader in total offense (8,888 yards) and passing yards (8,011 yards).
But he has not played since Oct. 23, when Johnson was replaced by junior Ryan Tannehill, who is 5-0 as A&M's starting quarterback heading into Friday's Cotton Bowl matchup against LSU.

I want to see a Big 12-2 team win and make us look good. Sad I have to count on the Aggies to come through for us, but it is what it is.
What we have here is a failure to execute.
yes they are
but regardless they still think they are an SEC team and lets face it they think they are SOOOO good this success has made them believe that their program is as good as Texas’ program. i think they need to be taken down a peg
begrudgingly
I will be doing the same thing. but keeping it on the down-low.

for a concert I attended at the Back Yard a few years ago. I wouldn’t have gone if I had known he was a farmer.
College Station made The Guinness Book of Records: World's largest tool shed
ive got a lot of family in Louisiana
ive got to cheer for them tonight. plus the aggies need to get taken down a peg
All my family, on one side, are Aggies. Literally all of them. One played for A&M. I’ve had to attend way too many Aggie games. It wasn’t pretty.

Agreed.
Do you really think we will have to worry about that? If there is one thing Aggies know, it is screwing up in big games against any other team not named Texas.
What we have here is a failure to execute.
I don't know.
They could stumble into a win. Remember this is a Les Miles coached team they are playing.

Living out of state it would be easy to root for the aggy. But just can't do it.
As much as I don’t want LSU to win, I like little bro to stay in his place. I’ll support the sheep and root against their mates.

But on a larger scale, this bodes well for the Cotton Bowl. Sellout. Lots of buzz. Great crowd. If they want to get into the BCS in ‘15, they’re definitely headed in the right direction.

I’ll get creamed for saying this…
Kyle is an incredible place for a game. The atmosphere is better than DKR.
Cue meltdown in 3,2,1…

No. The drugs have worn off. We kinda act this way offline all the time. Sad. We don’t let anyone see us like this.

Les Miles doesn’t need a plan, mister. He is just that kind of coach.
What we have here is a failure to execute.
Miles should hire a coach who's sole responsibility
Is clock management. Clock Management Coordinator.
"It's all bullshit, and it's bad for 'ya." -George Carlin
so let me get this straight
a K-State player salutes the crowd and gets flagged for excessive celebration. but what the aggie just did doesnt get a flag?
There is absolutely no consistency in the enforcement of that rule. It is a stupid rule and should be tossed out.
What we have here is a failure to execute.
dont get me wrong
what the aggie did doesnt deserve a flag but it was far more excessive than what the K-State guy did
I tried, really tried
but couldn’t bring myself to do it. Go Tigers!

There’s a story above about the Aggie o-line. Two of them are freshmen and almost all are returning. Diaz and Wylie need to get here two days ago and get that D ready for next season. OSU is returning just about everyone, too.

Hopefully they lose their o-line coach, as well. :-)

I would cauton against getting hopes too high this next season
Yes, we’ve assembled what may be the best staff in the country, but they’re all new. That’s new systems everywhere on the field, and it’ll be on hell of a learning curve. May take longer than we’d like.
"It's all bullshit, and it's bad for 'ya." -George Carlin
I'm as excited as the next Longhorn
But I’m just trying to keep some perspective. I don’t want to get unreasonable hopes and get depressed again next season. I’d rather be pleasantly surprised and ecstatic if we excel immediately.
"It's all bullshit, and it's bad for 'ya." -George Carlin
NO
NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP OR ELSE
Whoever said laughter is the best medicine had clearly never tasted Scotch.
Oh my
They just showed an Aggie actually doing the “Gig ’Em” sign. I didn’t think they did that there anymore. All I ever see is them throwing our Horns down, regardless of whether they’re playing us or not. Refreshing, actually.

I'm kind of with dime on this one
It’s tough, but the way I see it is that I was Texas way before I was a Longhorn. I’m not actively rooting for little brother. Like it or not they’re representing our great state tonight. I don’t want to see the Texas school get beat by the Louisiana school. I’m just passively wanting aggie not to lose.

he claimed that Malcolm Brown was wavering in his committment to Texas. any truth to that rumor?
Yes.

They have a couple of others, but I won’t miss seeing Miller rushing the corner.
What we have here is a failure to execute.
They have been tackling pretty well.
And their offense has used a ton of formations, even a single wing on the last drive.
They’re getting much better.
We're going to need a multiple pro defense for what Sherman is doing.
Sounds like we went after exactly that in coaches.
i hope we didnt just hire the best coaches to beat A&M
i hope we hired the best coaches to win a National Championship
Tonight we see what we have to beat.
Both the Ags (and Sooners) as well as the power offense and tough D of the SEC. If we can handle that, we can handle anyone else. So, yeah, I do think we had an eye on hiring to beat these teams.
Brown has said he wants an SEC defense. I like his thinking.
Diaz can get us there.
What we have here is a failure to execute.
Either get faster players or cut their legs off.
Not that big a problem.
If you thought Terrell Cody was all that fast, I’ve got some property in the middle of the Atlantic I’d like to sell you. Their linemen are what wins games. And they ain’t that fast. They are big, mean, strong aggressive boys that don’t give up any ground. The trenches will be won by an outstanding S&C coach and Davis’ line.

Never happen
Our politicians are bat shit crazy. You could lay out a proposal where splitting us up would benefit every citizen in this state and they’d still never let it happen.

heres my question would anyone be sad if we didnt play A&M every year?
maybe only 2 times every 2 years?
It would make me very sad
As much as poke fun at little brother, I love the Thanksgiving day game. It’s tradition. Yes, they’re special and annoying at times, but I wouldn’t trade that rivalry for anything.

Wow Hodges must be the greatest LB of all time
“Without that middle presence of Hodges, all that heart, all that fight, A&M has not had an answer to the run game”
Shades of Ryan Reynolds RRR ’08
Yes FOX, bc with Hodges in, A&M would be dominating this game right now.
Hodges…A walk-on. Not their All-American, possibly first round draft pick LB Von Miller. No…Just this guy.

Give Blair’s Sudden Death Sauce a try. I promise you will hurt, but unlike a lot of really hot hot sauces, it has an AMAZING flavor. It isn’t just hot for the sake of being hot. All of the Blair’s sauces are quality.
