i think if we step up we can beat em, but it'll be a battle for sure, and if fran doesn't act like a jack ***, and if he worked on the pass defense, and if he worked on the passing game....lots of ifs

I think we'll find out a lot about the Aggies this weekend. If they can win in the "U" they will have crossed a major hurdle and will have a lot of confidence going into the tough part of their schedule. This game really is do or die for Coach Fran. Lose and he's probably gone at the end of the year.

do or die is a good way to explain this weekend, if we can't beat them our seasons down the drain, and if we can...well we might win more than if not haha

Two things that are going to haunt A&M this season are Gary _arnell and the lack of a passing game. The result of those two things will mean 4 or 5 losses this year.

no ****, i knew we were gonna have a strong back field, but i hear we were gonna kill bc of the WC...maybe they're waiting to make a dramatic appearance (jp couldn't wait, that interception was just too fun at the goal line for 55 yards)

Default Texas A&M VS. Miami

Man I can't wait till tomorrow night, one because I love Thursday night games and two because I love watching A&M play other big time programs. I know Miami is down this year, but looking at how they recruit they seem to have some big time players on the roster. I think they might come out and stop the run early but later in the game McGee/Lane/Goodson/Tarrant/Alexander will prove wear them down. If they get Martellus involved it could be a blow out (not like OU but a 10-17 point win). Anyhow what do you guys think is gonna happen? I simply don't think Miamis offense will be able to put up enough points, but then again A&M has been know to make some of the worst offenses look like NFL squads at times.

OU is one of the top college programs in the country, just because they slapped UM around doesn't mean aTm will, OU and aTm aren't even in the same atmosphere.

I think I'm gonna take Miami on this one.
