Utter BS targeting call. If anything the offensive player was the one dangerously leading with his helmet, plus the trajectory and body alignment of the players was changed due to being bumped by other players.
31-13 Bama at the half. I'm sure aggy is loudly claiming how proud they are of their hard fightin' ags. They'll end up losing by 30+ points but they'll somehow claim a moral victory.
Aggy friends posting that today proved Jimbo was the right choice to get the program to championship level.
This game didn't matter one bit, Aggsy win and they are back, they lose and they will still find a reason to say Jimbo is doing a great job. What will matter is the losses they will have against LSU, Miss State, Auburn, and toss up games to Ole Miss and USCe. We will see what they say when they are 7-5 or 6-6.
LSU and Auburn anyway; Mississippi Aggy probably. Olé Miss is terrible; and Carolina will be firing Muschamp at the end of the season.
Here's the thing; paying Jimbo that much is a huge risk. But, if they think they have the money then that's their call. I remember long ago when Jerry Jones started pioneering large bonuses to his players which were spread cap-wise over the life of the contract. I think it was Art Modell amongst other owners who were complaining about this. Jerry thought he had figured something out. But later he was badly burned with dead money on his payroll because he was paying the wrong people. It was a risk reward type decision on his part and the other owners were hearing it from their fan base for not following suit. Jerry has had the cash flow to pay money up front but they've backed off of that considerably in recent years. So Aggy figures all we have to do is overpay to the best coach we can buy. Jimbo has a great track record. OF COURSE they will improve relative to Sumlin, Sherman and Fran ("Better game day coach than Stoops; better recruiter than Mack). Personally I don't see why he wouldn't be successful. But it's Aggy and there is some Hindu karma they are paying off from a past life or something because they always fail. In the end, if they win it all they will gloat and the idea of buying the trophy won't mean anything to them and it probably shouldn't. Jimbo is just a human being who is a pretty good coach. He happens to have won the lottery.
All aggie fans I know complained loudly of the money Texas used to spend under Deloss and Mack and derided us for LHN. How ironic they spend this kind of money on a coach and go to what they think is where they can make more money. In short, they have been and always will be full of crap.
Eat it, Vegas! | TexAgs Entire thread is laughable as it shows they lack a fundamental grasp of how lines operate. Even funnier is that they believe that Vegas lost with the line being where it was. There were plenty of people that gave the points. All that money was money won for the book...no matter whether Vegas, Mississippi, New Jersey, West Virginia or any other book operations... I am feeling better about my bet that they would not win more than seven games this year. I am giving them Arkansas and Ole Miss but not many others...
Aggies thinking, "We did not quit being Texas' ***** just to become Alabama's *****....can we move to the MAC or Sunbelt Conference?"
