I've never been so proud to be an Aggie, and so disappointed at the same time.
This weekend was great. Friday through Saturday were pretty exciting here in Aggieland. We represented our university very well in the national spotlight, and I believe we impressed some people.
Visitors from Oklahoma were in awe of how loud Kyle Field was during the game. My roommate's friend visiting from Norman, Oklahoma was heard saying, "It's official, you guys (the 12th Man) are louder during an extra point after we score than we are during an entire game in Norman".
The 12th Man did it's part. We did all that we could to put our team in a position to win at Kyle Field. I'm even hearing that we impressed some of the visiting recruits.
Our defense made the necessary adjustments at halftime and pretty much shut the OU offense down. I was proud of that. I was happy that Michael Goodson had his first career 100 yard game. He played well against the tough Sooner Defense. I was happy with the J-train, Jorvorskie Lane, and how he literally ran over much of the team who tried to bring him down any way possible.
But that is about where the list ends. I was not happy with our offensive line...or McGee's Happy feet. I'm not happy with whoever our offensive coordinator or quarterbacks' coach is. We have not been able to throw the ball down field at all this year. And, I'm not happy with Fran right now.
I don't really know how else to say it, but it's tough being an Aggie. We have the best fans, the best stadium, all of the money we need, the ability to bring in any coaches we want. We live in the best talent rich football state in the country. But we haven't won a national championship since 1939.
I'm not ready to write off our season yet. The Aggies have only lost twice by a total of 5 points. We could come out and beat Nebraska and t.u. and things may be different. I hope we're lucky enough to win one of them. I guess we'll just have to wait a few more weeks and see how it all turns out.
