1. I've gotta agree that this was too close.
But I guess that's the risk in big rivalry games. A&M had a lot to lose, too -- coaching jobs, bowl eligibility. I'm glad we wanted it more, at least in the second half!

7. Man, I knew we shouldn't have been talkin' smack like that.
Those Aggies almost gigged us. Believe me, I was hurting both times they took the lead, with the crowd all pumped up and all.

Good job, Ags. You might have saved Fran's job, and your new QB looks mighty good. You firmly outplayed the Horns. 'Course you still lost, though.

11. Man, that game will be bigger than the Super Bowl.
IF it happens. We still gotta win the Big 12 conference championship game, and USC has to beat UCLA.

But I think that the Horned Ones can handle them Callyforny boys just fine.

9. I agree, it was WAY too close
But no worries, at the end of the day, the Horns got it done. I like that we had a perfect season...haven't done that since, what, the early 80's?

The new quarterback for the Aggies is someone to watch out for though...I was impressed by his performance.

So what are our chances at the Rose Bowl?

10. I think that we've got as good a shot at USC as anyone.
Matt Leinart isn't particularly mobile, and if we can figure out how to handle Reggie Bush, we're going to be good to go. We scored 40 on a bad day against a fired-up defense. We'll get our points.

If we're clicking, there isn't a college football team in the land that can handle the Horns.

15. I was waiting to see when you'd get in this thread.

Man, your boys put on a hell of a show! You should be giddy about your future quarterback. That kid can flat out play! He's a redshirt frosh, too, so you'll have him for a while. If Fran can figure out how to coach again, your team could be a force for a few years.

You can spill your guts at lunch Friday.

18. Fran's not the real issue. Torbush is. Our defense blows chunks.
The offense looked good with McGee who is a better fit for the offense they want to run than McNeal was. The defense had better show me something next season.

19. Actually, I thought that your D looked ok.
You got 3 sacks on Vince and you pushed our offensive line all over the field. That's a pretty good indication that your defense had stepped it up a notch, 'cause we got one hell of a good offensive line. Torbush is gone, though. Fran isn't exactly giving him the vote of confidence.

13. Yeah, but when it's that close
isn't it so much more tense, dramatic and exciting?

Khash.

14. Yeah, definitely more interesting than a blowout.
Believe me, my attention hardly ever wavered. I didn't relax until we blocked that punt for a TD, and even then it looked like the Ags could come back.

16. Congrats...I became a Texas fan when Fraud went to A&M
Perhaps he'll have to go "hold the rope" somewhere else next season.

17. Hey - we just inherited that asshole.
I can't turn my back on my school just because they hired him.

Carl Torbush fucking sucks though. He's gotta go. x(

20. He was effective at Bama
Fran snuck out of T-Town like a thief in the night and he didn't even say good-bye to his players. I've heard he's not very popular with his players at A&M either.
