aTm beats Alabama 29-24

To make me cry in my beer some more - it was worse for me, I've been beaten by the Aggies twice this year. What could be worse? Oh well, have to settle for the Sugar Bowl.

Giving up on the NC already?

[TidePony]

Yeah, I guess so.

Why in the hell did they announce this score at our game last night?

PA guy must be an alum

Good guess. He sounded way too excited about it to be calling an SMU game!

we should always be for teams from texas when they play teams from outside of Texas - unless its TCU.

Being a Tivy Antler myself (as was Manziel) I am on the A&M bandwagon right now

Why, what does them winning do for us exactly?

[Rebel10]

This is their biggest win ever. it solidifies their position in the conference, shuts up all the UT yapping about how they were going to be dog meat forever in the SEC - and sets them on a trajectory to be within the top two or three team in the SEC year in and out. THey are now the dominant team in texas without question - which means they win a ton of recruiting wars. If you are in Tx, want to play at the highest level and play in the NFL you now hope to go to A&M.

They were wise to sever ties with Big 12 and with Manziel starting 3 more years they will be the marquee team from the State of Texas. This win gives them exposure and a recruiting advantage over everyone else in the state, and it makes UT's pathetic excuses for cancelling their longstanding series look even more pathetic. This is also an example of how competing in the top conference automatically raises your program's esteem.

To bad this is not happening at Missouri. In fact, the opposite might be happening at Missouri.

That's it! JJ loses to a team that beats the #1 team on their field? He has to go now!

Again, it is not that he lost it is how he lost. I guess on your sarcasm you forgot the Tulane loss. JJ is going to destroy a very very bad USM but has not beaten many good teams.

Unfortunately, I'll never forget the Tulane loss. I've tried. Just poking some fun at some of the people on here that scream for his head after every loss. And lately, after every win.

Lol who's screaming?

[Junior]

Good point. No one types in all caps here.

[SMU_Alumni11]

Caps don't necessarily mean screaming. Cussing usually like when SMU2007 said a dozen of them in one message. I use caps as a way to focus in on main points, or obvious answers

[Rayburn]

Who says Texas A&M has won three national championships? Is his in football or meat judging? Just because some jackazz puts it on a wall in jackassville doesn't mean they actually did it.

In SWC days it helped us with the pollsters. Now a victory by another Texas team just makes recruiting that much more difficult.
