The best part is aggy should've dropped the A&M for State back in the 60's along with their off-putting, fake army culture.

Too late

Part of the perverse aggy "charm" is their congenital inability to make reasonable decisions or to make reasonable defenses of those stupid decisions. But then, those two things kind of go hand-in-hand. 

It's like when they said "the only bad thing about giving Jimbo that big of a contract is that we couldn't do it for 15 years". 

My god.

I always ask them if Texas is varsity, what does that make aggy? 

Never get an answer 

Originally, UT was referred to as "Varsity," while A&M was referred to as "College."

Belyeu > Laviolette. Beyleu was on track to win player of the year (Dick Howser trophy). Man, we've been dealing lately, but at some point without he and A-Rod someone will catch us by surprise. 

I know I'm asking a bit much, but I hope he's bsck by the Auburn series. I know the probability is very low, but we need him for Auburn and Arkie. OROH, we've shown we can beat just about anyone without them thus far. The more games played, the better we get. We just have to stop this midweek losing shit to mid teams.

Thanks Kliff but that's not the correct punchline.. JV is the obvious conclusion they don't want to utter

Uh, it's spelled C-L-I-F-F...from the Old English word clif of essentially the same meaning, cognate with Dutch, Low German, and Old Norse klif. These may in turn all be from a Romance loanword into Primitive Germanic that has its origins in the Latin forms clivus and clevus meaning "slope" or "hillside".

The Beginning

  Reveal hidden contents

The Aggie play from Saturday's games is what most people expected them to be throughout the season. If they can harness the fire and motivation they played with for the rest of the season, it should be filled with positive results the rest of the way.

Another positive note is this likely ends the debate regarding Earley's job status. Winning the series on the road against the #1 ranked team all but cements his return in 2026. He is learning on the job and if he continues to do so, the sky is the limit.

Imagine if, in addition to being the fastest exit from the polls when starting off #1, if we were also the most monumental turn around and came all the way back to win it all. If that happened this team would be talked about in the annals of college baseball FOREVER.

If they could turn it around and somehow win it all, there absolutely would be a 30 for 30 about them

It’s not every day you see a “journalist” talking about national championship when their team is nearly last place in their conference.

I mean...it's aggie. Any win in their mind is championship material. Sleeping giant has now awoken.

I want to offer congratulations to our friends in east Texas for their hard-fought 2-1 series victory over Tennessee.  I only wish the 'horns could have shown out in a similar manner.  #littlebrother

Everything about UT chaps their hides.  

I once had an aggie ask me, "Why does t.u. get to be called 'Texas?'  A&M is in Texas, too.  So is Tech, and TCU, and a bunch of other schools."  I was dumbfounded.  I replied that there are lots of schools in Michigan, but only The University of Michigan, is called Michigan.  It's the default designation for the flagship public university in most states.

So you know it pisses them off that one of the most iconic representations of the state of Texas-- the Longhorn breed of cattle-- is associated directly with UT, and not their own school.

In their defense, sheep are directly associated with A&M and not any other school in Texas.

Texas A&M baseball just keeps surprising fans. Up until this point in the season, that has been true mostly in a way that the Aggie faithful would rather it not be— but the tides may be turning.

Now, this is something we've sort of grasped at straws to see previously— say in the midst of a turgid offensive stretch, the bats wake up against an overmatched midweek opponent, causing Aggies to wonder if the offense is back. However, what Texas A&M baseball just pulled off is far greater than that kind of eventuality.

What the Aggies just did over this past weekend is stroll onto the home field of the number-one ranked team in the nation, hand them as many losses as they had in the entire season up until that point, and run-rule them in the process. All of this after a demoralizing game one loss that had A&M fans wondering if it was time to pull the ripcord on this coaching staff.

So, are the Aggies back for real, or was it just one good day? I won't lie: after everything we've seen so far this season, I find it tough to believe that the Ags won't trot out any more disappointing performances, but this is the kind of a result that can— and, in this case, must— galvanize a team.

This is the first time all year that the Aggies looked the way we thought they would. A&M was a hard-hitting and sharp-fielding machine up in Knoxville, finally resembling the squad fans had anticipated.

If mowing down the number one team in the nation and prohibitive favorite to repeat as national champions isn't enough to get this Aggie squad moving in the right direction in a sustained way, then nothing can pull that off. The thing about this series is that, in a way, it didn't seem fluky— I know to look at the records of the two teams it would seem as though it were, but this is who the team was supposed to be, not suddenly finding a new level that had heretofore never been hinted at.

The Aggies need desperately to stay on that level if they hope to make the postseason. We saw a couple of years ago that Ole Miss struggled early and snuck into the NCAA Tournament, only to win the whole thing. Could the Aggies' story be similar? There are a lot of steps that must be taken first, but it's not out of the question if the

And that's how it ended, he just trailed off again...

This writing is so bad that I can't tell if it's AI or just some semi-educated hack who has a much higher opinion of his own mastery of the English language than his words suggest.
