See what happened after Morriss left Kentucky now.

Baylor sucks, the coach sucks

[aggie1997]

One win in over 20 years seems level to me. Hope it stays level.

"“We’ve got to try to mix it up,” Hoefer said. “You just can’t put your corners on an island like that on every play.”"

why not? worked for miami.

[Texags Refugee]

Look at the last three years....

2004 - OT Loss
2005 - 3 point OT win
2006 - 10 point win with 7 points at the very end to seal a very tight game

Now I ask you, why shouldn't they be optimistic? We have had a huge talent advantage every year. However, that has not translated to on the field success.

I agree this game should not be close, but history says otherwise.....

[Pumchavas28]

I guess baylor should be pretty close to even with OU & tu also then..... :bored:

[Texags Refugee]

Not sure I follow your logic on tu / ou.

I am not agreeing with them. Just saying that if I was the habitual underdog and had played with the big boys for 3 straight years I would be optimistic (delusional) as well. Especially given our recent problems.

[DCAggie]

The article doesn't really go w/ the headline. It doesn't really mention anything about the comparison of the two teams other than the blowout 4 years back and the fact that the Bears get up for the game. Kinda forgets the close games in the past three years. Or just assumes that the kids in Waco all know that.

[12th man fan]

Over on Gaylorfans.com, home of the "meet a chubby gay bear fan!" advertisement, they think the "field is level". GuyMo is making sarcasstic comments about us "supposedly" being one of the big boys, etc. At least this year he wasn't stupid enough to predict a B12 South cahmpionship or even a bowl appearance.

For many reasons, they need to be trounced Saturday, and good. The gap needs to be widened again. With them feeling like a close loss to us is a moral victory, it's time to re-establish their position as the B12 South cellar dwellers.

They need to get on the us to Wacko knowing they've been beaten down.

[Pumchavas28]

Your brave for even going over there...












this is a joke for those wanting to come back with a "brave" thread...

[whitelightnin_23]

12th man fan = braveheart...:gig:

[12th man fan]

There are one or two rational posters over there, predicting a close game, but most think that the Bears win big in a blowout. It's hilarious.

[Pumchavas28]

Wow.... just wow.... I know what happens one year does not equal the next being a gaurantee or anything...

But they do know they have only scored more than 21 points against A&M only twice in 20 years.... :popcorn:

[Mezentius]

I want vengence and furious anger on Saturday.
The beast in this team needs to awaken...

[AgIdoc]

i think we'd all love a severe beat-down of gaylor this weekend. i personally think we'll get it. they lost EVERYBODY from a crappy 2006 team.

no zeigler = no close game

[TexAgFromCal]

Judging by the last 4 years we they seem to be almost even if you only look at the outcome of the baylor-A&M games. Looking at how the coaching staff seems to handicap our team with play calling, it is getting much closer than I would like it to be.

[PUSHUP KING]

New poster here, and having lurked on this site as well as Texags, i'm in agreement with the article.

Let's be honest here, what have the Fran led Aggies done in the last 5 years to make us an overwelming favorite. We are nowhere near the class of the Big XII.

I'm not rooting for Baylor, nor am I rooting for Fran. I've been listening to 790am here in Houston, and from 2000 on to now, the Aggies have not finished in the top 25, there are 55 other schools that have,

One way to possibly save his job is to, now brace yourself Burnetaggie, is to start Jerrod Johnson.

Last week John Lopez referred to your boy McGee as our Chance Mauck. Again I am in agreeance here. Put Johnson in and let's see what happens.

What is so funny about that. All the talking heads here in Houston are saying this, i'm pretty sure they know more about football than the participants on this site, including myself.

In the last 7 years Mack Brown has never not finished in the top 25.

Something to think about. Put in Johnson. A good coach would do it, or perhaps a desperate coach.

Not sure I see any similarities between McGee and Mauck, but I like your post - welcome pushup.

[PUSHUP KING]

From $Bill's Wednesday talk.



First thing I want to talk about is the game at Miami. I heard from a lot of you who said you were embarrassed and angry. And so were all of us. No one liked what we saw last Thursday night.

We've asked you to buy into the program, and many of you have done so. That's why the game in Miami hurt so much.

But you're not the only ones hurting. The players are hurting. The coaches are hurting. The athletic staff is hurting. The lockerroom after the game was painful - physically, mentally, and emotionally.

A few have written that you'll never come to another game. I hope that was just the frustration speaking because we have eight more tough conference games left. Baylor is coming to town this Saturday, and they'd like nothing more than to come to Kyle Field and out-score the Aggies. They don't very often, but they think we are vulnerable—and without you we are. We need you at Kyle and in full voice. Please hang in there with your fellow Aggies when they need you most.
What some want me to say....

I've heard a plenty about how our coaches are evaluated. In fact, some want me to fire everyone right now. That's not the best way to conduct business. My process remains the same – we never discuss a coach's evaluation until the season is over, regardless of the sport.

That's how it's been in the five football seasons that we have been here, and throughout my career. It won't change now.
Another bad part of the Miami game

Issues of crowd behavior in Miami need to be addressed, on both sides. We learned that the actions of some fans from both schools necessitated the police escorting them out of the Orange Bowl. That reminded me of why I'm glad we don't serve beer at sports events.

The Orange Bowl is a city operation and beer was available. While I enjoy a cold brew myself, I don't condone over-serving fans and allowing them to get out of control.

One of the many things I love about going to games at Kyle Field is it makes me proud how well we treat each other and our opponents.


Reading between the lines, a change is coming.

[PUSHUP KING]

You can't let your emotions get the best of you. Everyone wants a winning team. What do you want a happy McGee playing every game, or a winning Jerrod Johnson, throwing the ball, and winning games. If you are concerned about feelings, we will NEVER be a factor in college football, NEVER.

[The Massacre]

plz....you're killing me. stop now. :laugh:

wouldn't a good coach put in the qb that gives his team the best chance to win? or would a good coach put in a freshman qb to appease some "talking heads"?

:laugh:



for the record, before i piss myself from laughing so hard....do you think Johnson gives us a better shot to win a game than McGee and THAT is why fran should let him start? OR do you think that fran should let Johnson start to appease "talking heads"?

and ANOTHER QUESTION...do you think fran is making up the stuff about JJ not being ready to play with a game on the line?

ANOTHER ONE...could you explain JJ's passing efforts during practice, during games, and his consistency.

[PUSHUP KING]

you've GOT to be kidding me...

bless your little heart...I'll bet you're just a young pup...

seriously...welcome to the site. There's nowhere to go but up (from these posts)...:gig:

Been around for over 40 years, and have probably watched more Aggie football than you youngsters ever have.

Can you say Bubba Bean, George Woodard, David Shipman, Carl Roaches, Ed Simmoni?

lets just say this account tripped our security system and while its not foolproof its been pretty accurate in the past. so more than likely hes not a "young pup" round these parts.

Okay, troll. I'll play along just because its been a slow day here today. You are telling me, that if we finish the season 11-1, that it won't matter because BB just told us today, in his own little way, that "a change is coming,"?

[The Massacre]

i'm sorry. Welcome to the Site! glad to have you! :gig:

my thoughts exactly!

:rep: for pushup king if you come out of the closet as boozin...er, moth...er...

only thing...pushup...how do you feel about fran?

also...Mountain Bikes suck & people who ride bikes for fun are pretty ghey...

A "happy" McGee is a winning McGee, not just a McGee that is getting snaps and losing. JJ overthrew a wide-open Tarrant in th eleft flat just before the Hail Marry pass - he ain't perfect. McGee, or JJ, or Brett Favre, none would do well with the crappy game plan they had against Miami.

[BigJohn]

Boozin really is back which is good cause my banning finger has been itchin lately :-)

[whitelightnin_23]

so it's true??? YIPPPEEEEE!!!

Please let him stay, please let him stay...
just for a little while...then we'll knock him back underground.

[PUSHUP KING]

I'm sorry, but I'm not this Boozin fellow.

[The Massacre]

:sad:

[PUSHUP KING]

I'll try to not be negative, but after Miami, it's kind of hard to be happy about the state of Aggie football.

Everything however i've been reading regarding the program isn't that great, I was hoping with the current team and talent that we would be 4-0. I'm not expecting us to break 6 wins this season, and that's just an honest opinion.:sad:

[The Massacre]

I'll try to not be negative, but

that's like starting a post with "I'm not trying to be racist, but...." :laugh:

welcome to the site. we can deal with your negativity and apparent un-informed opinions. stick around and stay a while. :gig:

[whitelightnin_23]

key question...

Do you want this team to win out...the rest of the season...even if it means keeping Fran??? :spy:

[Mezentius]

Jerrod Johnson as a change of pace ala Perriloux at LSU, but he's not ready to be an every down QB...

I think the players are in place...it's the scheme that's lacking right now. That being said I think a beatdown of the Bears is imminent.

Also I see nothing between the lines on Byrne's comments other than "drop it until after the season."

[The Massacre]

where is this Byrne comment that everyone is talking about? in his weekly wednesday article today?

[whitelightnin_23]

first page in this thread...pushup king posted an exerpt..

The sad thing is....it is that Baylor will be closer to us in score, than we will be to tech. The way we are laughing at them for thinking they have a chance, tech in all truthfullness should be laughing at us.

Well Curly said she saw it happen on the other side of the stadium.......

I'm not surprised he said something about it.... their fans aren't friendly & even before the game they were already trying to start shyt....

[Mezentius]

Exactly why I decided not even to try to go to the game. Someone would have thrown something at me, hit my wife and I would have gone to jail.

[Curly06]

we didnt have anything thrown but if the parent who will remain nameless hadnt stepped in who knows... ill never not go to a game based on their crappy fan base. gotta take the bad along with the good everywhere ya go:)

[Mezentius]

I think the rules are different for guys and girls on this one. Girls generally speaking can say and get away with things in a confrontation that guys simply can't without inciting physical violence....I mean I don't don't know many dudes that would fight a woman at a stadium...but I know a ton of guys that would fight other guys.

I am not a crap talker...never have been. I go to games, yell for the team and go home. I don't use profanity (much..I try to refrain for the little ones around me) but I simply can't stand hooligans who throw crap especially when they hit my wife with it...sets me off...I know this so I stay away from Lubbock and other such venues.

That being said I've been to Norman and Stillwater and have never had a problem other than some various smack talking which doesn't bother me at all.

[Curly06]

yea i know its different but this man and his son (which was the saddest part) prob would have pulled that kinda crap if the parent didnt get involved. miami guy knew if he threw something he'd had some serious issues with the parent

ive even had players not allow me to have a ticket unless i have a guy go with me to places like that.

[Mezentius]

player parent?

That's another piece of fan behavior that I just don't get...I was at a hotel bar several years ago and Major Applewhite's parents were staying at the hotel and were having drinks with what I assume is another tu player's parents.

I mean they were drinking a beer and enjoying quiet conversation in a quiet hotel bar...we were there meeting up to go out for a friend's b day party and a friend of this dude's friend proceeds (and he's sober by the way) to go up to Major Applewhite's parents and tell them how much he sucked and how much they sucked because he sucked.
Applewhite's dad turned beet red but he let it go and we chewed the dude's arse and left him behind...I mean classless.


I don't know a ton of players' parents but 99% of them are cool folks who are there to see their kids play well/hard/safe. Why accost them to vicariously taunt their kids playing a game?

[Curly06]

yea thats what starts most problems- you can clearly tell some are parents (wearing jerseys) then you proceed to say name of child sucks etc- its just uncalled for. ive only seen that behavior at tech & miami
