Fake field goal on 4th & 15 right before half did wonders to. Lets not forget the brilliant onside kick.


Neither one of these hurt us.

Bama went three and out in 58 seconds after the fake FG.

Bama fumbled on our 10 and we then went on a 90 yard TD after the onside kick.

If you're going to post shite at least get facts correct.

If LSU wins convincingly, I see us in a BCS bowl game.

Wins what convincingly? Another way of looking at it is, What team, other than 'Bama would go. It most likely UF-if they win out. Otherwise, I have a sinking feeling that Johnny Football and TAMU get the bid.

If so, it will be yet another year sans BCS because of one loss. Yes, the scheduling has a lot to do with it. Yes, the gumps seem to play with house money.

If LSU wins out I doubt seriously the Fiesta is taking A & M over us. LSU would be ranked higher, would be the bigger get as a program, and the fiesta has old Big 12 tie ins........ A & M dumped the big 12.

Florida winning out is the real danger.

What's up with everyone saying the BCS would want to select Tamu because of how long its been and their fan base is hungry. Sucking arse for 15 years straight isn't a prerequisite to make a BCS game. That argument is terrible.

Only Brad Edwards (ESPN) has the aggies in the Fiesta. Schlabach (ESPN), CBS, Sports Illustrated and All Sports have LSU in the Fiesta.

Cotton really wants the aggies and longhorns to play.....venge match.

I would be extremely disappointed if we go back to the cotton especially if Tex A&M to to a BCS bowl. That would suck mightily.

The perfect game for the Aggies would be in the Cotten Bowl against Texas. That would be a game of national interest. The game would be an easy sell out.
