I disagree. A&M came out pumped and focussed and win the game in he first quarter. The second half and even the second quarter were strolls in the park but they came out with intensity that impressed me, the crowd were into it, and they seemed to be taking last weeks frustrations out on the Ponies. It was our lack of discipline and focus that really surprised me.
I don't want to get into a back and forth on this, but even Dave South and the aggie radio network, made comments on how the team and the fans had little energy. Did you notice the mass exodus of fans in the second half, not sure if I have ever seen the ag fans leave so early. We were so inept and boring, that even the loyal aggie fans couldn't take it anymore.

It was a very tame and quiet Aggie crowd. I've been to about 12 games down there for SMU and other teams and I've never seen it more quiet than that.

I can echo the crowd being very low key. That makes the hundred false start penalties even harder to swallow. Noise was not an issue.

This is a very winnable game but my expectations are very low. Can we stop their run? Will we run? Will our WRs block?

The answer to all three questions is no. They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security

How can that still surprise you at this point?

Both SMU and TCU are in a 1-2 hole. Important game for both teams.

They're supposed to come back here next year. I'd be surprised if that game is played, I'd imagine they buy their way out for another game in CS 2005 PonyFans.com Rookie of the Year Award Recipient
