Damn was I wrong in this thread. I finally try to give the ags some props for their running game and they prove me wrong. Last time I do that.
Was this the same Miami team that got smoked by OU? Surely they played much worse on the road than they did in this game.
I want to say something snippy and mean... but that was just ugly.
So, even tho I thuoght atm would win, most of us (not wearing maroon glasses) were correct about a couple things:
- atm is completely 1 deminsional
- Miami has a pretty decent run D
- atm lives and dies by lane
I'm not sure you can blame the players for this loss. Seems to me the game plan was completely flawed and that falls squarely on the staff.
If aggie beats texas this year the entire staff of texas should be fired on the spot. If the team is relatively healthy and healthy at QB there should be no reason a team that can't throw 10 yards down field should beat them.
damn good article about silly aggy..

This is all on the coaching staff. Miami played with emotion and played hard. In typical Fran fashion, the aggies come out expecting to bull their way to a victory.
Main Issues:
1. Lane wasn't given the ball till the second half when we were down by 24
2. The defense has no clue when it comes to making adjustments
- 1st drive of the game said it all with a 17 play drive where Miami converts 3rd and 6+ multiple times b/c aggie dbs are playing 10 yards off the line
- I also love the fact that the defense celebrates making tackles when down by a large margin or when the play results in a first down for the other team. Lack of any type of discipline.
3. The passing game is unbelievably predictable. Quick one read slant pattern that disregards whether the intended receiver is actually open.
- Play action plays take so long to develop b/c they all involve fake option that no one bites on. Once Mcgee is ready to throw the entire D is all over him.
4. O-lineman receiving on special teams and actually trying to run the ball back. AKA FUMBLE EVERYTIME
5. The defense still can't tackle worth a
6. Martellus Bennett still never gets used in any capacity outside of blocking
This is the same thing that has been going on for Fran's entire tenure, time for Byrne to make a change. On the plus side, at least it keeps our streak of getting embarrassed on primetime ESPN games going (VaTech, Utah, Clemson, etc)
Leave fran alone.

"Tone at the top" is exactly right
I don't know how I missed this quote, but praahhhhhps brahhhh
The Oklahoma Daily Effort (otherwise known as the Dallas Morning News) completely lambasted the aggies with two seperate articles talking about how their program, fans, and players are all "wannabes"

What a joke. Even if they drop every game for the rest of the season and only beat Texas, aggiefan will still live for the towel.
Now for some non-drunken CBF commentary:
Miami has very good team speed on defense. Every time McGee or Goodsen aimed for the outside, Miami was there to meet them at the line of scrimmage. So why rely on speed to beat a team with a speedy defense?
This leads me to two points.
1) Dennis Franchione has been completely exposed as comparable to Greg Davis in terms of calling a game. He has the most unstoppable, bloatedest, fattest, widest, strongest running back in the history of our great State of Texas, yet he decides to use Lane in motion, moving him to the slot, and giving him ONE TOUCH IN THE FIRST HALF? He decides to use the aggie run game in a speed scheme, relying on McGee and Goodsen, apparently not realizing what excellent team speed Miami has...
What a complete moron. Aggiefan should be calling for his resignation right now. It's absurd to do something like that on a huge road game nonetheless....absurd.
2) How the did OU score at will on this Miami D? Not saying they are great overall, or great period, but the team speed was apparent from the first defense series where A&M three and outed (along with a McGee fumble for the first play of the game, LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL) It's a testament to how good OU's line is this year I think. Miami's offense was average at best, and I think the crowd was giving their running back that extra push. But Miami's speed was dominated by OU. Yikes. I did not watch all of that Miami-OU game, so can't say much else, but damn, OU is good this year. Will make for a very interesting Shootout.
But seriously, why stray away from giving it to Fat Daddy Lane? What the has that prick ass scrub Goodsen ever proved in his life except scoring a bad ass touchdown on the worst UT defense of all time? I'd be so pissed if I were aggiefan. However, 'twas an excellent present to watch those towel waving maroon assholes get punked by a punk ass school. Those G's in florida are faaaaast, in the long run maybe confronting such a fast defense will help A&M along in conference play.
Maybe.

what an embarassment...Fran should be fired on the spot. i've just about had it with this coaching staff.
...but we'll still beat t.u. cause we'll run the ball every play and its at Kyle Field.
You act as if playing at Kyle Field makes a difference, UT has not lost at Kyle Field this century and has an overall winning record there. Plus it will only be 80% full
you act like t.u. is good and can stop our run game.
no....and no.
You guys should be thinking about Baylor this weekend, and not worry about Texas.
A&M is gonna have to hope that colt is 60% and have his worst game of the year like last year for a&m to have a chance to win. You act like a&m scored 35 points, they didn't, they scored 12. One long run and the long drive is all a&m did all day.
That is why aggies are stupid.
