Another 3rd down conversion. That's what 7-7.
He's good bro. Big text and exclamation points are not needed.

Horrible call there.
Why the do you run on 3rd dwn!???
punt it
If I were A&M I would go for it on 4th all day in their half.
Well that was a bad call.
In a game like this you have to punt it. Too big of a potential momentum shift.
Punt!!
shoulda punted.
this x's a billion.
momentum has already shifted and the Aggy D needs lots of real estate behind it. Look for a steady diet of Lacy here
Aggie is ed if Bama scores a TD here.
Not so sure, Bama still doesn't look confident in stopping the Aggy O. Bad playcalling did Johnny and Co. in on that last drive
I think they get it together at halftime...which is why I thought Aggie needed to maintain a solid lead going into the half.
We've got a ballgame
Looked in to me
I want all those hounds-tooth wearing s with elephant hats on to die in a fiery explosion
It's the first round of the 2009 AFC playoffs and the Chargers have a 7-0 lead against the Jets. The Chargers have fourth and inches at their own 47-yard line with a little more than nine minutes left in the 2nd quarter.
What does Chargers coach Norv Turner decide to do? He decides to punt of course! And the Chargers, as you may remember, had one of the best offenses in the league that season, not to mention that Philip Rivers, or any other quarterback for that matter, can convert a 6-inch sneak 99 percent of the time.
From what you just read, you're fully aware this was a preposterous decision, but Phil Simms, who was announcing the game, pontificated for several minutes that Turner made the right call because the Chargers couldn't risk losing momentum. He wouldn't stop talking about the importance of momentum and how the Chargers would instantly lose it, whatever "it" may be, had they gone for the first down and not converted. No mention of the momentum that would have been created had the Chargers converted the fourth down, which they would have done easily.
In Phil's eyes, those handsome blue eyes, Turner's call was undoubtedly the right one, and the fact it didn't work out – San Diego didn't score again until the fourth quarter after falling behind 17-7 -- was unlucky. The trouble with luck, cousin to momentum, brother to coincidence, is that there's no way to calculate it.
I agree with DPG. It was a good call going for it. Bama was gonna score regardless.
Going for it was the right call. The run on 3rd was the bad one that drive.
Going to be tough to hold on, that's for sure.
That missed EP just kills me
Well, the fact remains that Bama would have at least had a bit further to go had they punted, possibly resulting in a Bama FG instead of a TD and much less momentum going into the half
I wish the Aggies would stop choking on their own jars tbh.
Aggy better get it goddamn going
