Can anyone get Coach Frans telephone number?? The only thing dumber than getting rid of him, was Coach Sherman not retaining his assitant coaches.

This is the most ridiculous conversation I have ever seen. The Aggies were never even in the top 100 much less near a national championship. As I look down the A&M schedule, I see at most 4 wins for a 4-8 season.

What am I missing?

Yes. If New Mexico would have one it would have made TCU look better. The loss lowers TCU's opponents strength.

I mean TCU beat New Mexico but they lost to Texas A&M who lost to Arkansas State.

It is much harder to say that TCU should be competitive.

Yea TC, usually the best team south of the Red to the Gulf also.....Good luck with the Hogs on Saturday, it won't take much to get a Texas team up for that game...

Boy you aint just a whuffin Ron- Im laughing now
worst officiating in the nation-no doubt
The Wash St vs Baylor game looks good, the game is at Waco, so do they have neutral refs? hope so
OU will probably slaughter the Huskies despite the obvious disadvantage that the Sooners have against the mighty Huskies- home field, Pac-10 refs and superior coaching staff-Tyrone & Co
Oklahoma the best Texas team north of the Red

Just a slim chance TC, but I bet Stoops will do his best, the MWC looks to be pretty tough to me by the way BYU stomped a mudhole in Washington with that 1 point victory..............BTW, we play Washington on Saturday, I can only hope the Pac 10 has replaced some of those seeing eye dogs....

Yea, I knew it was a restaurant chain, or a small group of them.

Now I think I'll go have BBQ for lunch...

OU Ron so now that TCU and A&M have both beat a mighty MWC team does this mean that OU has a chance a victory ?
LOL Right now C-USA looks like the BCS busters to me
ECU #1 all the way

ATM back on trac for the title, since New Mexico lost to the Aggs, does it make the TCU game less interesting ??

Agreed. The BBQ sauce is what makes the heartburn...

At least for me. The sweeter ones do, now that I'm older...

Commercially available sauces that stand out:

1) Dreamland BBQ sauce--those guys near Tuscaloosa know how to do it--best served heated--not room temperature. Luckily, there are now Dreamland restaurant franchises in Atlanta. I drive 15 miles to the one closest to me...

2) Maurice's Carolina Gold--a mustard based sauce. I only like it on chicken, but it is good! Getting hard to find since old Maurice decided to stamp a Confederate flag on the bottom of every label.

3) Stubbs--some guy out of Texas. Not too sweet and not too spicy. Decided to try it a few years ago since it was still being sold in a bottle. I still like my beer AND BBQ sauce in bottles, please! (but not mixed together)

So true, TC...

A common misconception is that it's the sauce that makes "BBQ"...

It is in fact the method of cooking...

Real BBQ is cooked all night on oak wood. you have to go to the back to get your meat. Its served on butcher paper no plates, get you crackers,bread, Jalapenos and Onions while your back there. The brisket is juicy and tender, no knives needed, you can pull it apart with your fingers. Luling City Market- Luling Texas or Smitty's-Lockhart Texas

Rudy's isn't bad for a chain. The one in CS is one of the better one's I've been to

Don't know about all that, but I know if New Mexico beats A&M convincingly the TCU Oklahoma game looks a lot more interesting.

How is the BBQ at Rudy's?

Hey Ron Thought our good buddy would jump on that stink bait LOL
I can remember UT losing back to back against the Aggies , three in a row- not gonna happen. Watch this Ron and see what happens
Texas A&M will beat Oklahoma
BTW I also picked Cinn Bearcats, Texas Tech Red Raiders & TCU Frogs to whip OU

OU_Ron — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 11:29:22 -0000

TC, you're consistent if nothing else....LOL, so you think Texas losing to the Aggs two in a row is enough....

Re: Did losing to Arky St cost the Aggies the title?

You must have a kicking game to be successful. I'll bet the Aggies will be trying out every walk on this week in search of someone who can hit a 25 yarder? Did I say that ?
Poor Aggies- sorry guys we have H/S freshman that can hit those consistantly.
They might beat New Mexico and maybe Miami, but they will lose to Texas Tech, Texas and Baylor- OU will be a tossup

You are not alone on the doubting boat, my friend...

I just think crazy fans are a huge plus in this sport. :)

Well, at least I've seen Miami start as they did Saturday, and get there, and win it. I don't recall any team starting as TX A&M did and get there, let alone win it.

Hey, as keraaaazy as last season was, ya reeeely never know. I'm just doubt'n it, is all.

I would agree, had every BCS team playing a FCS team this past weekend had also lost as A&M had. Since that didn't happen, I'd say the only thing A&M has to look forward to is a chance at the Big-12 Championship. Sadly, that ain't happening either. Remember, you heard it here 1st.

Porcine nailed it. Unless they got somebody on the squad who can do what Brett Favre does - then Sherman has no chance. The pros are a whole different game. If they draft a QB or RB (like Alexander) then you could make a whole career out of it. Down here at the lowly college level - you actually have to recruit your own players. Which means: the coaching staffs have to do all of the evaluations by themselves. There is no "war room" to offer any assistance in this matter. This is the one area that separates the men from the boyz. This is the one reason that Nick Saban has been able to get back ahold of the capability to dominate. Two completely different games.
