This is all why Elko isn’t and won’t change their culture, as the announcers last night claimed he was. I don’t know a fan of any other school that “wants a stadium that is coordinated on that level.”
 

Most of their traditions were born of them being an isolated all-male military school with nothing to do to pass the time other than making goofy things up.

I have seen at least 2 posts on Reddit from “LSU fans” talking about how life-changing their College Station visit was and how welcoming the home fans were during their pilgrimage to Kyle Field (the Mecca of College Football).

Texas is 1-1 against ranked teams in the past 2 weeks. Texas gave up 18 penalties and had 7 turnovers. And as a result, is -12 in point total in the past 2 games. Which sucks… it’s not the standard for this year. 

Agroids beat LSU after replacing their QB at the half. But, according to our fanbases, they have gimme putts to the playoffs and we’ll easily lose 2 more games. And QE sucks. And suddenly TexAgs and Surly (football board) are completely aligned. 

And then this thread sucks. Shaking my head for sure.

College football boards being erratic and prone to recency bias? Well I never.

We're going to skin them alive. I can wait. This is a short season, college football. We've got some fun games between now and then.

 

I'll credit Elko for where he has that team. It's a strange year with a great deal of parity, and he has them in the mix. He's not responsible for Texags blather.

All I can think about, all day, is that our fan experience isn't like theirs.

Stuck in traffic just punching the steering wheel about our lack of whoops and sways. WHY CAN'T WE WHOOP AND SWAY!?!?!?!

Now, you know there’s no swaying in football.

tarp: trap?


 

Spoiler

1. Texas A&M's win over LSU was an emotional event not just in the run up to the game but during the contest itself and the euphoria after. Now, as a reward, the Aggies get the closest thing to a "trap" game on their 2024 schedule.

2. Welcome to the new SEC where teams that play big games one week often fall victim to a decent opponent the next week.

Texas wins a rivalry game over Oklahoma and then looks awful against Georgia.

Alabama wins its "Game of the Year" versus the Bulldogs and a week later loses on the road…to Vanderbilt (which not only bankrupted Alabama bettors but the company that insured the Commodores' goal posts).

Tennessee beats a then top 25 Oklahoma on the road, gets a bye week, and still loses to Arkansas on the road.


3. Now, it's A&M's turn to face to deal with the emotions of a big win and the heightened expectations that go along with such a victory to go on the road versus a solid opponent in South Carolina (coming off of a bye week by the way).

4. The Gamecocks aren't great but they actually look like a competent football team (in contrast to past seasons). They use their special teams and defense to set up their offense to score enough points to win games. They've given Alabama and LSU all they can handle and bombed a bad Sooners' team on the road.


5. Not only that, even though they're 4-3, everyone in college football has delusions of grandeur these days via an expanded playoff format. They can make their case with four closing games against top 25 teams. Beating top ten teams like the Aggies and Clemson would allow them to make an outside case for a CFP berth in a weird, wacky, entertaining 2024 season.

5. Freshman quarterback La Norris Sellers is dangerous enough to beat you with a big arm that can crank out long throws and the mobility to buy time. He'll turn it over but he'll also make you sweat out games with off schedule plays.

6. South Carolina is in the top three in the SEC in rushing defense and passer rating defense. The last time they were getting those types of defensive performances, a guy named Jadeveon Clowney was running around their campus. No one is lining up and running over them or away from them as you've seen in the past.


7. Georgia Tech transfer edge Kyle Kennard is the Gamecocks' answer to A&M edge Nic Scourton. He has 26 pressures, leads the SEC with 8.5 sacks, and makes everyone around him better (freshman edge Dylan Stewart has 4.5 sacks playing opposite Kennard).

8. Their interior guys are under 300 pounds but get upfield and redirect things.

9. Due to the pass rush, their secondary has played very well. They have forced a league high ten interceptions because their rush defense puts you in long yardage situations and their pass rush forces you into mistakes.


10. Under head coach Shane Beamer (a former special teams' coach), they're really good on special teams. They've blocked two kicks this season and punter Kai Kroeger nets 44 yards per punt.

11. This will be the Aggies' first real road game with a crowd that will be in the game for four quarters (most of Florida's left after a rain delay). They have a defense that matches up well versus the Aggies' running game with good edges and backers that get really good protection from linemen getting behind pulling blocker.

12. A&M has the better team but can't lose the coaching battle, can't lose the turnover battle, can't lose the special teams battle decisively, and has to find a way to work through the emotional advantages that the Gamecocks have in order to avoid the definition of a trap game.

Nevermind  that our starting QB is injured and we played multiple games with our backup as well.  Golderned lucky sips!

Their lack of capacity for critical thinking would be surprising, it weren't so completely normal and predictable for them.

Yes sir. Nothing luckier than your starting QB nursing an injury that causes him to miss two games and almost certainly dramatically effects his play in two more (and counting) or your OL completely imploding for no apparent reason. So lucky

We are the luckiest team ever. I love how they truly, in all of their heart believe they're beating us. Never mind they've played no one other than a horrible LSU team, but their vaunted defense will carry them all the way to the title game! 

Rent. Free. 

It's like they think they have no weaknesses like their secondary, and their front 4 are good, not great, and Scoirton isnt worth what they paid him. He will get thrown to the ground against Banks and even Cam Williams, penalties or not.

So can we stop the collective pussy rubbing over them? Not anyone in particular. It was just incredibly annoying for the past week hearing about how we should just pencil in that game as a loss... We're not losing to aggy. Much less that fucking aggy team

We have absolutely gotten lucky on the ridiculous number of backup QBs that we have faced the last season and a half.

And now we get to face Florida’s 3rd string redshirt freshman transfer QB.

If that wasn’t the first thing that you thought about when DJ grabbed his hammy, then you must be new to following Texas football.

And our backup QBs have had to play a lot too.  It happens.

Strange, I have been following Texas for a while now, and my first thought was not about Texas but wondering what happened to the player.

How aggy of you.
