3rd and 2 with a horrible throw down field lost the game. Sorry, not sorry.

That was Frantastic-level momentum killer.

Yeah
That's what lost us the game. That one play.
Not the two interceptions. Or the blocked FG. Or the ill timed penalties. I could go on and on.
We just played like chit all around

Well it was that and getting sip on 3rd and long and then not spying Arch and letting him run like a deer right through the heart of the defense.

Post your selfie tough guy

Good grief, what a bunch of pansy arm chair dooooshes on this message board. Is there ANY objective intelligence left with any of you negative nancy key smashers?

Yes it sucks that we lost, especially to t.u., and not going 12-0, and not going to the conference championship game. But we ARE 11-1 and in the CFP with an outstanding coaching staff and outstanding group of Texas Aggie football players who love the 12th Man and this University.

How many big runs have we given up this entire year? Not many! When one happens, it's about 99% because someone didn't fit right. If a QB gets out of the pocket, the cage wasn't set right to contain him. If someone is wide open down the field with no one around them, someone didn't run the coverage correctly. And, penalties at bad times, turnovers of any kind, and not creating turnovers on defense or ST collectively make it very difficult to win against a good team. And t.u. is a good team, just like multiple other teams on our schedule. Aside from TO creation, all the others were mental errors. In the biggest game of the last 2 years (thus far!). On the road in a hostile environment, more than it's been in well over a decade. At night. Against our biggest rival.

Yet some of you who call yourself an Aggie can only b**** and moan about how coach had a terrible game plan and the players didn't want it bad enough. So bush league, and more akin to tshirt fans of the puke orange variety than real Aggies. Coach had this team in position to compete for the conference title in his first two seasons! We are in the CFP in year 2! Our players have been outstanding all year, and are ALL IN on being Aggies and playing for the 12th Man. EVERYONE knows that Coach has the ship headed in the right direction with real culture that our players have taken on. Some of you need to check your ****ing attitude, your brain, and your spirit and decide if you truly are an Aggie. Otherwise gtfo.

Right direction blah-blah. This game was the most important of the regular season (and possibly more important than the SEC Championship). 10 win seasons are nice, but when do we beat tu 5years in a row?

The D played fine and especially in the first half -- we had 2 sacks (2 others that were blown calls by refs on intentional grounding), and 10 tackles for loss in the game. The O has been out of rhythm the last few weeks since SCar game and that is 100% coaching.

We should have run multi-RB screens or multi-TE sets all night and killed tu in the middle of field. Needed Bussey in the backfield too for speed pitches to the sideline to soften the middle, but you must practice more offense to utilize when needed.

Need to respect your opponent more and not assume your will can be imposed on the road, in hostile environment, with a Soph QB who had weight of the world on his shoulders to play for undefeated and Heisman season. This coaching staff still doens't understand how to reduce pressure by simplifying scheme and allowing your talent to isolate in space. Let's get better at preparing for multiple game outcomes Elko and staff and start earning those pay raises.

Does anyone see the irony of YELLING at the doors man "we're trying to have a PROFESSIONAL press conference".

This place is always about absolutes, either black or white, with no gray in between.

Ags have the right to both be proud of the whole season overall and that the program seems to be in an upward trend. Yet, I also agree with those that are pissed off about the abortion of the second half we watched last night. Also agree with those gdamn tired of having to hear little brother comments from that a**hole fanbase.

So for the pumpers telling us to gtfo and shut up today, you gotta let us vent for the next week or so. However, after that potbangers need to take a major step back from the edge of the cliff and realize that all of us would take an 11-1 season and a shot at making noise in the playoffs.

Take time to get this out of your system and then come back and support this program.

Thank you! Bunch of pansy a** old men in the comments crying like they just lost their dog. This has been one of the best seasons A&M has had in the last decade and all they wanna do is cry about press conferences and podcasts. Jesus Christ. Still playoff bound. tu won their natty last night and we are getting ready to prepare for a real one.

Ah, yes. Our HIGHLY PAID players & coaches deserve zero accountability. And okay, it is smart to do multiple podcast interviews a week that generate about 5,000 views each with Reed giving our opponents quotes to hang in their locker room all week before they embarrass Reed. Truly genius

Not what he said. He said, "can we close the door and run a professional press conference, please".
