ATM looks ready...

They are a lot of fun to watch right now. Texas looks a bit stunned. Its early, and I expect the Horns to win, but A & M looks like they are ready to pull the upset.

15-14 aTm.
I really wish they would NOT have gone for the 2 pt. conversion. Why take ANY wind out of your own sails and put it in the opponents. Bad decision by Franchione, imo.

Oh, and these celebration penalties are getting waaaaaaay out of hand. It's becoming a disgrace.

lot of football left ot play. of the 5-6 times i've seen UT play this year....they get BETTER as the game goes on.

ATM seems to have trouble with success. UT makes so many big plays. they are kind of like Switzer's wishbone insofar as they are gonna go distance on you a couple-three times.

good game so far, when it looked like the Ags might be in for an early whitewashing.

Diving into the crowd is against the rules. The kid who scored the touchdown jumped up into the crowd (ie the Lambau Leap). The NCAA doesn't want players doing that shit.

ABC didn't do a good job of showing that part of the celebration. They just showed the players banging heads, I do not believe that's what they were penalized for.

what's that 3 back punt formation? give 3-4 Horns a running start at your punter?

i guess Fran had some wicked fake called out of it...but at soem point being Mickey Mouse is Mickey Mouse.

Aggy can't handle success.

Nothing I love more than the pass 7 yards behind the first down marker.

Preferably ran on 4th downs.

Interesting game. This was the first game since OSU, that had me worried in the 4th quarter. Props to the Aggies for rising to the occasion and making Texas work their ass off for the win.

The Texas defense did not do their homework on Mcgee and he burned them on several occasions. He runs like Bucky Richardson did for the Ags a few years ago. But I have no idea how good him arm is considering how few times he threw the ball.

I will say this, the Aggies kicked the Horns ass on both sides of the LOS, again that hasn't happened this year since the OSU game. Agains props to the ags because they were definitely up for this game.

No way I hold aggies to a sig after this game, they were completely out manned and played their asses off.

Sure looks to me like A&M was playing the wrong backs on offense all season. Lewis and McNeal are good, but damn I sure would have liked to see those two who played today have more of the shots this season.

I think the aggies have something to be excited about in Mcgee he ran his ass off against Texas, if he is as good a passer as we are lead to believe they will have a hell of a QB next year.

One more game for Texas and we will see what Texas can do against the best.

USC better not screw this up by losing to UCLA.

Holy crap. Texas was sure lucky to come out with a win. VY must have been reading his own press clippings. Rack Mcgee for the performance of the year for his team. With all the injuries accumulated by the Aggies, his play kept their hopes alive. Gritty performance and the kid can take some shots. He is a tough SOB. Even though this year is lost, the future has to look good with that kid. After watching the game I'm actually feeling scared of what USC will do offensively to the Horns.
