Reed will be a huge dud next week at South Carolina after a week of prep and game film. Coming off the bench it was obvious lsu wasn’t ready for the switch. He won’t do that week in and week out or he wouldn’t have been benched for weigman. I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re facing weigman the last game of the year.

I highly doubt it barring injury, Weigman is already looking to transfer. They are not giving him more reps, but to be frank they clearly have a one two punch of chaos, its like defenses refuse to prepare for both for some reason. And the end result has been a herp derp offense going off vs Mizzou and LSU.

Regardless of who aggy starts, it's tougher to prepare for two QB's with different skill sets.

Reed played well last night. IMO, he's a better fit for Collin Klein's RPO-heavy offense. It's more aligned with what he'd like to do with his playbook.

Prepare for Reed, Weigman isn’t going to beat you if he comes in relief.

I don't care what they wear as long as they win.  As much as it pains me to say that, Texas has a better shot at making the SECCG if Aggy wins.  

We need LSU to lose to Aggy and Alabama for us to finish 1 or 2 with a single loss, assuming UGA wins out.  We have to beat Aggy either way which give us the head-to-head, so we want them doing half the work to clear LSU out of the way.  1-loss LSU finishes ahead of us and I don't see Tennessee knocking off UGA.  Need LSU to lose 2.

Quote

When the news broke that the SEC was exploring adding Texas and Oklahoma, Texas A&M football fans had one question for its conference partners: are you sure you want this?


After all, none of the rest of these schools save Arkansas and Missouri had ever had the displeasure of sharing a conference with the Longhorns, and given the manic attention that Texas pays to A&M, not to mention the pathetic one-upmanship they obsessively practice with regard to the Aggies, those in College Station were uniquely positioned to provide a perspective on this matter.

Of course, money talks, and in this era of college football—one that seems to be inevitably barreling towards super conferences—you have to eat or be eaten. The SEC chose to look the other way on these warnings and extend an invite.

Now, less than five months into the official tenure of Texas as an SEC school, everyone else is already fed up with them. I'd say the speed is impressive, but this is a school with apparently unrivaled internal competition for just how insufferable they can appear to every single outsider.


In it, he details their pillow-soft schedule thus far: "Texas played wildly overrated Michigan, the worst team in the SEC (Mississippi State) at home, the worst Oklahoma team in decades in a neutral site game, and three non-conference punching bags at home."


He pulls no punches when discussing the sentiments towards the Longhorns around the conference: "Every team in the SEC wants another Vanderbilt win this weekend... They want Florida coach Billy Napier to save his job two weeks after that, and Arkansas to win its third consecutive game against its former Southwest Conference rival, and Kentucky to find its big game mojo, and Texas A&M to extract 12 years of frustration from Bevo's hide."

He also includes this blistering detail about how much of a pariah the Longhorns are already: "I spoke to three coaches this week, and each not only confirmed the rift about the laughable schedule given to Texas in its inaugural season, but each also made sure to text Georgia coach Kirby Smart and thank him for making it perfectly clear that Texas may be a member of the conference — but Texas hasn’t come close to experiencing the conference."

It wasn't long ago that Texas fans were writing fanfiction about how accepted they would be in the conference, as opposed to those silly hillbillies down in College Station who they for some reason simply can't stop thinking about despite their insistence that they never think about A&M, I swear. If there were ever a rejoinder to such daydreams, this is it.


This isn't because they're the dominant program with a target on their back, either. They're the self-obsessed, self-important, braggart rich kid who can never back up his loud mouth—and so everyone takes pleasure in seeing him get humbled.

Moreover, this has nothing to do with the "storied history" or "blueblood status" of the program—after all, Alabama had as many national titles from 2009 to 2012 as the Longhorns have in the entire history of their program—save their fans' attitude towards that largely-imagined prestige.

Congrats on already being an annoyance and a joke to everyone in the conference, Texas fans. In a world full of risibility on demand, you have managed to stand out yet once more—after all, with so much money behind you, you've got to be the best at something.

I am here for the over rotation from aggy this week. They think they did something amazeballs, when in reality all they did was exposed LSUs complete lack of a defensive line. Aren't they down to two or three scholarship DTs? Hell yes a zone read package is going to eat them alive.

I agree, my point was reed was already their savior and flamed out and they brought weigman in. Last night was lsu not being prepared at all for a running qb and it showed. What happens next week when Aggy can’t move the ball with reed because he blows ass at passing?

I think he was talking about Kelly. 

He’s likely going to win coach of the year. He’s done a tremendous job - it sucks. 

Didn’t they sign the #1 class not too long ago? Don’t they have a lot of resources? Aren’t they near a major city? Why have they sucked since 1939?

Winning there shouldn’t be hard. It’s not some magnificent achievement.

They literally have a post of the amazing hospitality they always show to visitors they post about!  It’s on barstools a&m instagram.  Always helping them find their seats, offering them food and drinks, having mutual conversations.   It’s a video of them putting hands in the visitors face and yelling at them overly aggressive by every single aggy around them directly in their face….  It’s slide four

We've seen crazy from Aggies but this may be a new level. Proud Texas A&M grad Jorden Bowen at Houston political rally screaming. "I don't give a fuck. Your dad is a bitch." at a little child! The dad picked up the girl to protect her and and woman in the black shirt intervened to shut down the verbal assault. Unfortunately for poor Jorden, she has been seriously doxxed and can now will suffer a large amount of harassment. Whoop!

Ok first of all, that's fucked up in terms of the crazy shit she's doing.

But that whole story needs vetting. But since we live in a "fuck it, just post it online to get people angry!" age of "media" -- it's already out there with all sorts of shit attached to it.

Not to CR one way or the other, but seems like it's being run with primarily as a political "story" and tool.

As for that specific person, it may not even be the person claimed.

So I'd suggest really knowing what's going on here, as unlikely as that is these days.

That said, that bitch is nuts, so we'll just assume she IS aggy, if nothing else, in order to get maximum comedic and aggy-mocking results moving forward.

Thanks for attending my Ted Talk.

Fair enough. Maybe it's not her, but we don't need to see the whole story when a woman is screaming in the face of a little child. It's just unhinged. But I like to think its an Aggy thing to do.
