[Texas Bowl] Official Game Thread: Texas A&M vs. Oklahoma State

e$pn highlight headlines of the game...

"aTm comeback falls short"
"Short-handed Aggies fight hard in loss"
"Bond banks one off crossbar"
"Sam Matthews grabs INT"

"Ollie Gordon breaks off 25 yard run"

What a bunch of douchebags, not even trying to hide their bias just like the commentating crew last night. You'd think the ags won by how everything was covered. God forbid we show any of the incredible catches from Owens or Johnson. Surely can't show the forced fumble at the goal line by the OSU D. No no. That would prop up the Big 12 instead of our bellcow $ec who we have to run cover for. And pretty sure I heard "the ags are down 31 players and starting freshmen at CB" more times last night then even an entire season of the fun fact that Colt McCoy and Jordan Shipley are roommates.

The 20 minute interview with the new A&M coach WHILE THE GAME WAS HAPPENING! was infuriating. Call the game. That’s what you get paid to do. Not talk to some dude who doesn’t even work at the school yet!
 
Every time I sync up with Varsity Network to avoid the TV announcers, the game thread provides proof that it was a good call.
What's your go-to method for accomplishing that? I've tried several times to do so and would strongly prefer to listen to our own guys, but I can never get it to sync up and stay synced up.
 
I had no idea where our total defense was. I looked it up and we are ranked 122nd. I feel if we could improve this to top 50 then we would be a much better football team.

I mean we could be a championship level team if we could see this kind of improvement

You left off the “cruel” way that we took advantage of those poor little dbacks with our big aggressive, older, stronger wr

I know it's year one of Nardo's defense, but it's a little concerning that we didn't improve much (if at all) over the course of the season.

Dave’s usually pretty good about calling out the snap. As soon as the ball hits the QB’s hands I pause the TV until I hear Dave say “takes the ball”.

He's turned Collin Oliver and Kendall Daniels into remarkably mediocre players. Outside of Martin there just weren't many flashes of brilliance this year or reasons for optimism next year.
 
There was a meme waiting to happen in the first half. I think EatmE just kicked their second field goal and was about to kick off. They panned the crowd and an EatmE fan has his finger up his nose to about the second knuckle. If we were playing them on a regular basis I would go back and get it.

I’ve never heard the word mediocre and Oliver in the same sentence.

Dude was an absolute menace all season. I do agree he is at his best as a rushing end. Hope he plays there more next season.

And hope Daniels moves to LB (like Malcolm did). His skills are best closer to the line.

I still can't believe that aggy was allowed to stand over Ollie after a tackle, push him around when getting up, talk trash every play, and he was the one who got a penalty for apparently his words when the aggy pushed him. Just shockingly ridiculous. I hope Ollie learns to control his emotions a little more and avoids getting baited into things, but I see people calling him the trash talker. JFC, it was every play those a-holes were mouthing off and shoving him on the ground without any repercussion.
