I see a decent amount of blue in the stands – little pockets of it.

This has been a pretty good game if you don’t count the poor special teams play, the O-Line, poor use of timeouts, no signs of Simmons, the penalties, etc.

This A&M team has 18 true freshmen playing and they will make a bowl. I’m very tired of the “we’re young” excuse.
Great game by Hanson, Simas and the D played well also

A&M being the 11th ranked defense

the rushing of the field has to stop
It’s embarassing and pathetic…. Seriously! Were they even ranked? And let’s not get too excited we are still 3-6 and we haven’t won two straight yet.
Does this mean Hawk just saved his job – great. I can hardly wait for more mediocrity. Happy for the players not for Hawkins.
