Yeah that ain't gonna work.  Weigman is either done at A&M or it's gonna be a long fucking season.

aggy may have an issue with Weigman as it relates to Cotton Holdings, who sponsors both the Texas-aggy rivalry game and Connor's NIL. It just so happens that Connor's dad is a VP at Cotton Holdings.

When he shits the bed again, will Elko be "allowed" to bench him for another QB? Will there be pressure from boosters?

Aggie network hard at work fabricating reasons to hate their qb- as per tradition. 

 

If they're good at nothing else, there's tradition.

It never ceases to amaze me how close they get to figuring out that they are constantly lied to by their AD and media mouth pieces and yet they never make that final connection.

I mean, there have been accusations that higher-ups are "sip plants."

But there's the thing.

 

There were some insane coincidences that led to this happening; the correct flight path had nearly identical topography to the one 180 degrees off; they were scheduled to release chaff (and did) right as Iran was about to intercept them, it was the exact same model that Iraq was using, etc.

You know it's real because nobody would've made it up; it's too implausible.

I feel Looch fits into a similar category: You know he's not a Longhorn plant, because we never would have come up with someone so effective at destroying aggy from the inside, creating and sustaining a cultural rot that they can't escape from.

Fuck, just call a game where the QB runs 15 times against McNeese, the problem likely takes care of itself.

I agree with Daddy98, Jonah is a hell of a prospect. He's a lot faster than I thought he would be given the tweener status. Maybe he can play safety in the SEC.

Watching him just blow past some of the competition this year as a kick returner and receiver, it is pretty eye opening. I never really looked into him much because I figured he was going baseball or to Oklahoma for a long time. His athleticism for his size is elite. 

[Rickylovesweed 15305]

I think the concussions and shitty OL has done a mental job on Weigman. 

Go watch the 1st half against Auburn last year before his injury. It was as bad as the ND game. Weigman looks terrified in the pocket.

Seriously, their offensive lines have been so shitty for so long, the last guy that was a good enough QB to compensate for it was Kellen Mond, and the ag faithful absolutely hated him because... reasons.

SEC Round-Up: League counting on its villain to restore order

 

By Olin Buchanan

 

 

An unpleasant week of Southeastern Conference football is followed by a nauseating notion this week.

After going 1-3 in marquee Week 1 matchups, the SEC is counting on… Texas…to defend its honor in a top-10 clash with defending national champion Michigan.

Go ahead and retch.

That shouldn’t be the case. The powerful SEC is college football’s bullies. Its teams typically terrorize opponents.

That was before Texas A&M fell to Notre Dame, Miami mauled Florida and USC upset LSU.

True, No. 1 Georgia’s predictable 34-3 beatdown of Clemson and Vanderbilt’s shocking upset of Virginia Tech — sorry, not a marquee matchup — saved face to some degree.

The SEC doesn’t save face. The SEC steps on faces with a hobnail boot and breaks noses.

Instead, the SEC looks toward a new member that has looked down on the SEC.

Recall, last May, Texas athletic director Chris Del Conte suggested the Longhorns’ annual clash with Oklahoma is bigger than the “Iron Bowl” and “The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party.”

Then, in July, Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers declared games against the Longhorns were everybody’s Super Bowl. Apparently, Ewers is unaware five different SEC teams have won national championships since Texas last won one.

But the fact remains that the SEC needs Texas to restore order on Saturday in Ann Arbor where Michigan has notched 23 consecutive victories.

“These (Michigan) guys know how to win,” Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said. “You can see it in their style of play. They play with a great deal of confidence. They believe in one another. So, it’s a heck of a challenge for our team.

“What I think Saturday will do for us is serve as a bit of a barometer of where we’re at as a football team this fall.

“We’re going to get challenged in all three phases. What do we need to work on, and where do we need to keep growing to get ourselves prepared for the Southeastern Conference?”

Even a trip to Ann Arbor may not fully prepare Texas for the grind of the SEC, where it “just means more” and hostile crowds are “just more mean.”

But on Saturday, the Southeastern Conference will be cheering on the Longhorns.

Well, the SEC office suits who allowed the Longhorns in will.

SEC fan bases in College Station, Fayetteville, Norman and probably Knoxville and Baton Rouge won’t. The very idea would be just too nauseating

Why would the boosters not want him benched?  aggy's best player is ALWAYS the backup QB.  It's why aggy is known as QB2 U.

You know, what's super weird about all of this, is that WE'RE not the ones proclaiming Texas must save the SEC's reputation.  WE'RE not the ones asserting Texas is some savior to the conference.  WE'RE not the ones suggesting that this is anything more than an early season intersectional football game between two Top 10 teams, that should be a lot of fun.

Longhorn fans want to win this game because it's against an all time blueblood, because it's against the defending national champs, and because we want our favorite team to win EVERY game it plays. 

It has nothing to do with the SEC.  Texas wasn't an SEC team when this game was scheduled, and even if it had been, it still wouldn't have anything to do with the SEC.

And yet idiot blowhards like this ag will simultaneously call us the villain while still casting us in the role of savior and ultimately blame sip arrogance for daring to believe we're worthy of representing the conference.

WE.  DON'T.  CARE.

“These (Michigan) guys know how to win,” Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said. “You can see it in their style of play. They play with a great deal of confidence. They believe in one another. So, it’s a heck of a challenge for our team.

“What I think Saturday will do for us is serve as a bit of a barometer of where we’re at as a football team this fall.

“We’re going to get challenged in all three phases. What do we need to work on, and where do we need to keep growing to get ourselves prepared for the Southeastern Conference?”

Even a trip to Ann Arbor may not fully prepare Texas for the grind of the SEC, where it “just means more” and hostile crowds are “just more mean.”

But on Saturday, the Southeastern Conference will be cheering on the Longhorns.

Well, the SEC office suits who allowed the Longhorns in will.

SEC fan bases in College Station, Fayetteville, Norman and probably Knoxville and Baton Rouge won’t. The very idea would be just too nauseating

SMU cheer could assist.

They’ll fire up the narrative that they would’ve buried Michigan after they demolish McNeese St. next weekend and Quinn wins comfortably in Ann Arbor.  Watch.  It will be an overrated Texas and Michigan…they’re like clockwork.

I can’t imagine CBS is real thrilled with Rick right now. They paid a lot of money for the opportunity to gas up the Big Ten.

Recall, last May, Texas athletic director Chris Del Conte suggested the Longhorns’ annual clash with Oklahoma is bigger than the “Iron Bowl” and “The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party.”

What’s next, Copernicus suggests that the earth revolves around the sun? 

Douchebag needs to learn the difference between a suggestion and a fact.

Iron Bowl is heated, unpredictable, an incredible experience, and usually matters for the national title race, I at least get that one as a best rivalry contender (but not the actual right answer).

Cocktail Party sucks. A predictable blowout in an ugly NFL stadium every time.

I mean, if we want to differentiate degrees of wrongness, that’s fine.

The Iron Bowl had an argument when it was played in Birmingham.  

[Professor Chesney 685]

Neither of those hold a candle to one of the most hallowed SEC rivalries of the last decade: Texas A&M vs South Carolina.  If it wasn’t so important, why would TexAgs insist that annual game be protected and continued?

it just means more.
