If there is such a rule, A&M should have been penalized somehow.

I guess I'm still trying to figure out what was so heroic about it...? He barely made contact with Der'rick who was moving out of the way to begin with... its not like he dove in front of a bullet.... he didn't pull the dog out of a burning building....

couch 'em wrote: Much ado about nothing. It's just a dog, it wasn't that hit compared to many games especially in the kyle field oven, and the bump helped our guy not hit the wall so hard anyway. Geeze.
I agree. I first thought the aggie protected our guy from running into the wall. thought is was a class act. then told it was the dog he was protecting but either way I'm OK with this.
They knew to keep Reveille from Pernuna who kicked and killed the Fordham Ram.

Are you saying that you don't sacrifice an unblemished Points burger on the Peruna alter in the southern end zone before each home game?

Can't help but think of the old pic of UGA trying to bite an Auburn player. If Aggy hada real mascot the dog could protect himself.

Reveille is a [deleted] rather than a dog.
http://aggietraditions.tamu.edu/symbols/reveille.html There used to be jokes that the mascot was the only female on campus in College Station.
