We'll be ranked again before the ttu game.......
Be it because we earned or because we beat oSu & bu & other teams just fell out... but we'll be ranked by the time we play ttu.....

I'm not sure we will be ranked going into ttu, first of all let's win the game before we started making assumptions, because you know what they say when you ass u me!:laugh:
Here is my reasoning, bu is a dangerous game, lose and armageddon happens in college station, win and it is no big deal, the "ah, it's baylor" attitude prevails, so no votes will swing on this game. osu, first win it, but let's say we win but struggle, no votes either or maybe a few swing, lose and well, err... no need to even discuss this. So it is a far stretch to say we will be ranked come ttu. I've stopped caring about rankings, what I care most about is respectability, a good showing, and some small shred of a sign of improvement. Again, just another of MdAg's unimportant post, so take it with a grain of salt, my prediction, if I had to make one, no ranking going to Lubbock.

I would be happy to see a QB sack and a deep pass to Kerry Franks or Pierre Brown...alias wr's alias one of the top kick off return pairs in the nation...I know they're fast, but its more clever to run curls to them all the time and stop routes.

Like I said... we could also move up because other teams lose... not so much because of what A&M does....
Cheezy I know... but true....

I have not heard from Pum so maybe he does not check private messages, but just so everyone can see just what a nice guy I am, I am willing to allow Pum the opportunity to send enough money to AggieFans to purchase me a Maroon membership rather than paying me the $50 that he will most likely owe sooner than later.
I cannot promise that this offer will be on the table past this week, and I think that he cannot see my posts, so if he has any real friends, you should probably let him know.
I'm in the money....I'm in the money....I'm in the money and its due to pum-cha-vas!

1) Don't have any PM's in my inbox..... Haven't had anything since I got back on today....
2) The deal was A&M & Fran not getting there before Michigan... season isn't over.... :popcorn:

Inquiring minds want to know, what was the bet made?

Gravy:
How many of you would take me up on this bet. I bet $50 that Michigan will win a football BCS bowl game or a football championship before the Aggies do with Fran as our coach. Our bet must be confirmed before the next Aggie football game.
Now let's see who is ready to put their money where their mouth is.
Pum:
I've got $50 on that.....
The Mods know I am good for it..... I pay up via Pay Pal for all my stuff easy...
Dustin:
action...sweet. So what happens if Fran gets fired? Does that mean that Gravy wins?
Pum:
I'll still pay up.... I don't care....
I have enough faith in the players & coaches to believe Gravy will be paying me $50....
Gravy:
We don't need mods or pay pal.... I have no reason to doubt you being good for it Pum. You are in the military right? Mark it down as a good bet. When the result is in, we can just mail direct if that works for you. It may take more than one year to determine the victor, although, I think we could probably reason that if Fran is ever cut loose before meeting the criteria of the bet, then I win by virtue that the Fran winning portion is no longer possible. (If you wish to back out after considering that, then please say so....otherwise, at least Pum is willing to back up what he thinks!)
As a gentlemen, I give you until the beginning of the next Aggie football game to reconsider. At least now there is some money involved!
There was no reconsideration, the bet is good.
I am simply offering pum the opportunity to save himself about $15, and the embarrassment of having to say I bested him, as well as letting him have the satisfaction of knowing that the money is going to AggieFans rather than my pocket.

Gravy,
I can't believe someone took you up on that Sucker Bet.
It's like betting someone on who can hit a golf ball farther, and let them drive the ball on a golf course first, then hit your ball down a flat highway.

Wow! when was this bet made? after what game or was it before the season started? If this bet was made after watching the Aggies play, then Pum is one gambling man! The type of person that can be down 10K and still be laying down 1K per roll of the dice!:wow: Was this just blind faith on Pum part, or some reasonable thought process that might land the Aggies in a BCS bowl?

It was made before the Miami game. So we were all still on kind of a Monroe-high. I really don't want to just take his money, that is why I am offering the AggieFans way out.

Wow, forget the Monroe-high, this was after what I term the Fresno Fiasco, and he still made that bet! It must have been our awesome passing game that convinced him to take this bet!:wow: My new nickname for Pum, Chava "El Gambler" Rogers!:laugh:

Yeah, but Michigan was 1-2 at the time and not playing well. Remember him losing still hinges on Michigan winning a BCS bowl, something they haven't done in 4 straight Rose Bowl trips.

Just me being me... not a sucker bet... Just me believing A&M could & can make a BCS game...
