Any of you going into aggyland to watch this? I will be there with my son! Couldn't pass up a chance to see Brazil. I've been married to a Brazilian for 22 years now and have obviously supported the Selecao like they are my own...of course when they aren't playing the US. Can't wait to see them destroy Mexico and cannot believe it is being played in College Station. :)

Nope, but I am sure some nice aggy will give you directions to your seat, be gracious hosts, and all that. Pretty soon your son will be applying. You will see. Happens at all the games and we have written proof of it. And yeah know aggy never lies.

Went to A&M once in 2005, you know how that game went. After the game I took a picture on the 50 kneeling on the logo doing the double Horns up. I have no need to go back again.

i saw Plano beat LaMarque for a state title in 1986 at Kyle Field.  never been back.

i know they're trying to set an attendance record of some sort but just seems like an odd and hard to get to venue to do it.

also, if aggy wins the regional this weekend, they'll also host a Super Regional the same weekend as the Brazil/Mexico game.  talk about a clusterfuck.  good luck to the visiting fans finding a hotel room.

Digital cameras have come a long way in just under 20 years. That is the full sized picture there and man it's small.

I love the looks that the Purple Demon 😈 in the Longhorn Jersey is getting.

Aggies hate colored demons and people

Would never get a hotel room IN College Station. I would not recommend it to anyone else, either.

I had 2 immediate thoughts to this pic...

1) it's rare to see a horns jersey wearer rock an "8" but thank god cedric griffin not only smashed the ohio state tight end and separated him from the ball but also thank god he returned that blocked punt for a td when the offense was in the midst of shitting the bed against the agros that year. that game was so freaking dumb.

2) i never would have thought that captain ron, even in the mid-2000's, would be a jersey wearer.

LOL aggy gets to see the B team.

It’s not like a ton of aggies will be at the game. 

It will be Mexicans from the greater Houston, San Antonio, Austin, East Texas areas converging on the “Paris on the Brazos” that is College Station.

I don't blame him - Uruguay routed them 4-0 earlier this week and fans ran onto the field during the game.  Their coach might worry about similar.

It was literally like 10 fans total. 
 

El Tri is pretty much seen as a joke by all mexican soccer fans, especially in Mexico. No money being put into development and favoritism is rampant in the roster construction. The expectation of ever winning again is completely gone. Ironically it’s the women’s program that has been quietly improving in recent years. The U-20 women’s team beat the US in the CONCACAF title game last year. I don’t think they had ever beaten the Americans before.

We held Colombia 🇨🇴 out of our goal until the 6th minute, but Brazil 🇧🇷 scored on Mexico in the 5th minute. 

Mexico is so much worse than we are!

Yeah, this is very much the Brazil B squad. I'm not sure that is actually a good thing for Mexico, these are guys fighting for Roster spots, so they might be out there fighting like hell. The could already be up 2-0.
