Texas A&M Game

A Maimi W or L against AtM doesn't indicate either "fold the program" or "we byke *******, we fuccin".

Just another mile marker on long drive to Big Manny's Y3/4.

It doesn’t matter if it actually indicates it or not

But it’s what’s gonna happen here

I'm going to go out on a limb here amd predict CIS reax to AtM tilt:

AtM crushes Miami: porster meltdown will be epic by halftime..."I will never watch a single Canes game until Big Manny is fired" will spew faster than a drunk sorority girl after her 3rd Zima

AtM squeeks out W over Miami: see above except with the caveat, "I'll wait until UNC beats Miami until I never watch a single Canes game until Big Manny is fired."

Any Miami W over AtM: expect a bumper crop of newborns ~9months after the 4Q whistle blows. This unfettered joy of "we fuccin" brought down to Earth after TVDs first pick against Temple.

Spoken like a true veteran of the board 😂

Night games are great but our biggest advantage is the September sun, which blazes on the visitor's sideline for afternoon games.

Let them bake over there.

Also, before anyone says anything, I'm aware it's warm in College Station, TX. It's not the same as the Miami heat and humidity in September, though. So save your breath.

Yeah man, Middle Tennessee was cooking over there.

No offense sir but that has proven to be zero advantage for us.

There’s no home field advantage big enough to compensate for bad football. Unless your home field advantage is some kind of flesh eating virus that literally kills the opponents. Otherwise, if you’re playing like trash, no amount of heat, cold, fan support, etc is going to help you win a game. Now if the game is close and you’re playing well, wouldn’t you prefer that your team gets to spend the entire game in the shade rather than baking in the sun. In close games, things like that can affect the outcome.
 
With a competent OC we beat these guys easily last year. Now we both have OC’s so should be a good contest.

Are you the same guy who said I was looney for picking Mich St over Miami?

A W or L vs AtM is a data point, not the guarantee for the rest of the season we all want it to be friend.

Not sure but maybe? And yes it’s a data point, but a very instrumental one.

It’s not that players from Texas aren’t familiar with heat. It’s that one sideline is in the shade while the other bakes in the sun. I’ve lived my whole life in Florida heat and you couldn’t pay me to sit on the visitor sideline, let alone do it in pads and a helmet.

When Michigan State came down here Mel Tucker corched the game wearing shorts. Their sideline was exposed the whole time but Gurvan Hall decided that tackling his teammates was a good idea.

If we play to win instead of playing just to keep the score close, I like our chances.

Purposefully settling for field goals and draining the clock on offense when we're not winning won't cut it.

Re-read my post regarding home field advantage not making up for bad football.

im good w a day game. get it over with and get home happy (i cant imagine losing twice to Fisher esp if we arent running that crap we ran last year on them). its two 5-7 teams. not a shock as to why it isnt compelling tv esp w better games scheduled right now.
 
I’m looking to improve my record to 2-0 against Texas A$M after the execution I performed on University Drive last September.
