...and here I thought betting on aggy to choke in big games was the safest bet
Any of you degenerates have aggy's record against ranked teams this past season? Mizzou "upset" notwithstanding?

Lost to Notre Dame, Texas and South Carolina (currently 14, but unranked when they played).

Beat Mizzou and LSU. Only Mizzou is still ranked.

I did my weekly rummage thru the TexAgs Texas game thread lololololol

 

75% of the posts are over analyzing every play for no call Texas hold and crying why we had zero penalties... until we finally got one then they complained we only had 1 penalty... etc etc

Their collective psyche is so totally broken and fucked by our performance last two years.  It's total comedy. 

 

The remaining 25% is asking why they couldn't do such simple things such ass make those CK passes on our defense lol

Can someone calculate how much aggy is paying per win this year? Factoring in Jimbo and The Elk’s salaries, etc. and just assume aggy will lose to USC 

Jimbo gets $7.1M/yr through 2031.

The Elk gets $7M/yr through 2029.

About $14M/yr for the next 5 years. Is 8 wins a good return on that? 

For perspective, Sark gets $10.3M this year, and I think his incentives so far are an extra $150k for SECCG, $250k for making 1st round, $500k for making quarterfinals. $11.2M total it appears so far? More cash for any coach of the year awards.

This math is so fun, but can you imagine an aggie trying to rationalize the variance? 

I'd actually really enjoy the "logic".

You know, I guess I knew these numbers but I have never seen them side by side.

Not only is jimbo getting paid more than Elko, his guaranteed is longer.

Giggity.

 

And that number for Jimbo didn't include 25% of the total buyout (about $19M) they had to pay him within 60 days of his termination.

Everything they do looks completely joyless. Let's look manly mean when we play music and march. They strive to be the loudest stadium, so their fans always look unhappy and very serious in the effort of making noise.

It's very important to be a Texas A&M Aggie.

Incorrect date aside, I love that they think all of America save Austin hates us.  One of the largest alumni groups in the world -- almost 600,000 still alive -- but yeah, they're all in Austin.

Let that hate eat you up, Aggies.

 

Isn’t this against their largest perceived insult of “Tshirt fans.”

I mean, we know they’re hypocrites but this one is pretty transparent.

Which is it? The most T-shirt fans or the most hated? We just can’t have both…

Having a hard time believing we have more t-shirt fans than Norte Dome. Or being more hated. Although, be fair, if we include international fans, I can see more t-shirts. Hated, though? Don't think so - I've avoided many problems overseas by explaining that I'm from Texas, and while we are content to let the Ugly Americans believe we are one of their "States", we are in fact a separate country in every important way.
