...if A&M does not let Mizzou get up early on them, something they allowed tech and kansas to do, then A&M will win the game. it all depends on the first quarter.

afraid not, young chap.

1. End of 1st quarter @ Kansas: KU 10 A&M 0

2. End of 1st half vs. tech: tech 24 A&M 10

...its simple, A&M has dominated the second half of games. if they don't let Mizzou jump on them early, which i hope they are capable of, then A&M will win, imo.

what a play by the Ag defense

:elephant

[j-6]

I can't believe I got this game as a pick 'em yesterday. I'm thinking Mizzou by fourteen or so.

...it was, but mizzou got it back with that crazy tip catch to make it 7-3 mizzou. looks like A&M is going to have to put up some points in this game...pretty much what i anticipated.

btw, i am pissed i am not at the game! i gave up my tickets cause i have to go to a b'day dinner @ 8pm. sucks...

not so fast my friend!

[johngateswhiteley]

Paydirt Bitches!!!

[johngateswhiteley]

geez...

14-10 mizzou

[j-6]

not so fast my friend!

That Daniel kid's going to have 500 yards passing if the Aggie secondary doesn't step up. The one thing I've gotten out of this game and the Tech game (the only two A&M games I've really paid attention to) is how good McGee could be if the OC was worth a damn.

You guys want Greg Davis?

...i'll let you keep Davis, i'm holding out for Norm Chow.

[johngateswhiteley]

...fuck. thats the receivers fault, damn

[Horry For 3!]

Missouri should win

[Horry For 3!]

Note to Missouri coaches: don't give the football to the running backs


fumbles, fumbles, fumbles

[johngateswhiteley]

note to A&M: score TD's and plenty of them; mizzou is a very talented team....but we are getting the breaks and HAVE to capitalize.

Mizzou showed last week that their pass defense isn't anything special. The Ags might have a shot if they start going vertical more and leave Lane in to block.

[LEONARD]

Chase Daniel is the real deal...

[johngateswhiteley]

thats how we do, baby!

A&M 17 mizzou 14

[johngateswhiteley]

what is it with our KICKERS, SHIT!

[johngateswhiteley]

fucking penalties, damnit Aggs! this is crazy...

[johngateswhiteley]

3rd & 17....big down coming up! lets goooooo D!

[johngateswhiteley]

lets try to score in 00:37

[j-6]

The Ags need to stop fucking around with the running game and air it out. There's no way A&M is over three yards a carry right now and Mizzou's secondary looks vulnerable.

gotta stay balanced. A&M WILL wear the tigers down in the second half with Lane...A&M always does. but i agree that the Aggs cannot be afraid to put it in the air as well.

...will be an interesting second half; curious to see what adjustments each team makes. i know mizzou won't do too much cause a big reason the game is ties is cause of turnovers.

[johngateswhiteley]

...a safety, are you kidding me. we are giving back all the breaks, slowly. shit.

[johngateswhiteley]

keep trucking Aggs! run hard and hit hard. fuck yeah! lets score again Baby!

[johngateswhiteley]

great punt, but the p-returner was too close....that was not good.

[j-6]

I flipped the channel and just saw that A&M's up 25-19. Why go for two to go up six? Obviously it worked out for them, but is that standard on the chart?

[Horry For 3!]

That was a fucked up play call on the 4th n goal

I guess so they could be up by 2 fgs

[johngateswhiteley]

...man that was huge. in the back of my mind i thought fake, but not when they took the delay of game.

[johngateswhiteley]

i wish Lane would not get tired, cause he kills people for fun. and, btw, comparing him to melton is a joke. i bit my tongue a few weeks ago when tea-sips on this board were comparing the two. its not even close, Lane by a mile...

Melton doesn't get enough carries to warrant the comparison. So you can't really tell if he is worse, as good, or better.

[johngateswhiteley]

RUN THE FUCKING FOOTBALL YOU MOTHERFUCKER! ...i am starting to hate this damn fucking coach. we would be undefeated if we ran the damn football.

[Horry For 3!]

Missouri's offensive coordinator is not very bright, these 4th down play calling are worse than Greg Davis' calls.

[johngateswhiteley]

Melton doesn't get enough carries to warrant the comparison. So you can't really tell if he is worse, as good, or better.

...there's a reason he does not get more carries. his feet are no where near as good as Lane's. keep in mind Lane gets carries and we have goodson and lewis (when healthy).

[Horry For 3!]

Jamaal Charles and Selvin Young are bad ass and fit the Longhorns scheme better than Henry Melton does.

irrelevant. if t.u. had Lane...he'd get the ball plenty.

But I do have to admit, Lane is pretty damn good. Dude is just so big, it is hard to bring him down.

[Horry For 3!]

Well looks like A&M will win, good win for them.


No one in the Big 12 is undefeated (overrall record) and everyone has at least 1 win after today.

Missouri loses, Colorado wins.

[j-6]

First, if UT handed Henry Melton the ball 25 times in one game, he'd start dodging everyone from the field judge to the Silver Spurs trying to avoid contact. I don't think Lane's anything special, but at least he's a durable hoss that hits people.

Second, I was wrong about abandoning the running game and airing it out. Some dubious playcalling plus the A&M backfield saved this game from becoming just another notch on Chase Daniel's belt. It's tough to win when the opponent has the ball for 40+ minutes.

Congrats on beating an undefeated top 25 team, Aggieland. Just because it's Mizzou and a pick 'em doesn't change the fact that this is an upset.

1. you're wrong about Lane, guy IS special...besides you t.u. fans should remember him from last year when he ran all over your D

2. yeah, and i was right. its the same thing with the Aggs every game...they own the second half when they RUN the football

3. people will write this off as mizzou playing poorly, and while they did not have anywhere near their best game...fact remains they did not score an offensive point in the second half and A&M dominated it, again

4. thanks!

[TheTruth]

Lane needs to lose about 20 pounds. then he'd be a true hoss.

...guy is a HOSS, but i will agree he'd be even better if he got done to 255-260 from 275. then his conditioning would be even better and he would not have to come out of games.

[gtownspur]

Congratz!!!
