Aggie saying thanks to Blake McJunkin ...

I just want to say thanks to Blake McJunkin for his act of class in the Game Sunday.

When Trent Hunter lost his helmet, Blake protected his exposed head with his arm. That was some Good Bull!

You sir, are what this country needs more of.

From someone who saw SMU play A&M in the 80's, I was excited to host y'all this weekend.

SMU, you are well represented by this young man. Best wishes to you, Blake.

Thanks for the comment Aggie!....your fans were were very respectful and I give you props...even though we didn't even show up for the game....

Even though we lost, I had a great time at the game. The Aggies I sat around were great as always. Some even asked me about our team, the program, and our school. It was fun just to talk to fellow college football fans who love their team, and the game. Classy of you as well to stop by and post this. Take care, and hopefully we show you guys the same respect and hospitality when you come up to Dallas next year.

Thanks for taking the time to post. I had a blast down in College Station and found the fans to be great, and the atmosphere at Kyle Field is what sports is all about. Good luck for the rest of the season.

Here here. I was the lone SMU jersey in my section but couldn't have had a better experience. All the fans around me were respectful and very complimentary of the team - even seemed genuinely happy to have SMU back on their schedule (except when the score was 20-14).

Appreciate the comment, heymoe.

Over on texags they have a 5 page thread thanking Blake for his play and attitude. Over 145 posts and 14k views. Pretty impressive. Would have rather had a competitive game, but oh well.....

Other than losing, I like playing A&M. Had numerous people come up to me to help with directions.

Tech fans suck. Every Aggie I spoke to said the same them.

I have to admit, I can't imagine anyone from Tech or one of our conference foes coming on here to post something like that, oe even having threads about it on their own board.

Like 'em or not, they appreciate good sportmanship.

Blake is a great guy. Here is a link to the video (0:47 mark):

And the thread on texags:

I had the chance to meet Blake at a Rangers game. We were trying to park in one of the remote lots. He saw my SMU license plates and began moving his friends out of the spot they were standing/tailgating in to let us park. We got out, and Blake said, "anything for a Mustang fan." He was with a Christian Athletes group attending the game, introduced himself, and took a picture with us.

Awesome stuff. Way to go Blake.
