his past year they faced Alabama, Florida, A&M and South Carolina, went 2-2. Not bad but it kept them out of the SEC title game.


We were 1 out of 3 holding calls away from the SECCG.

But when did A&M become a juggernaut?


since they beat Bama and beat the living piss out of Oklahoma.
They aren't a super juggernaut but Manziel makes them really tough to slow down.

Dandy don made a good this morning we are also 9 points from being 7-6.

Miles won't win those close sloppy butt games this year because our defense will be so young.
Unless he ges a lethal OC!!

2011 schedule was even harder, IMO. We do well when expectations are not as high.


And we played that loaded with underclassmen. We could do the same in 2013.

ESPN also picked the Trojans to play for the NC. Also said Lester was going to Michigan in 2007

They improved a lot toward the end of the year. If they can keep the QB healthy they could make a run at it.

They aren't any more talented than LSU or Bama but could be solid for years to come.

I don't have a problem with him saying A&M will be a tough game for LSU, but a frickin "juggernaut"?

How many Cotton Bowl wins has LSU had that gave them even half this hype? Holy rat shite.

I think teams next year will make it a point of knocking the piss out of JFF early and often. I can also see him falling into to the Broadway Joe syndrome, based on his post-Cotton Bowl antics. In short, I look for a sophomore slump and an underachieving Aggie club next year.

You realize that JFF alone has more yards than our entire team?

And how does nitpicking one stat from hundreds of other stats prove your point?

And if we are going to nitpick stats I might as well add: A&M hasn't beat LSU in over 10 years and they will play LSU AT Tiger Stadium this year.

Another fun stat. A&M hasn't won a championship of any consequence this millenium.

Throw the stats at me all you want, but one guy doesn't make a team a "juggernaut", especially if that team has accomplished no championships prior to this label.

And they lose a top ranked OT, their center, and their other OT could go too.

That's a lot of protection leaving Manziel. Swope will be gone, finally.

They lose DeMontre Moore on defense, that's a big loss.

Manziel can't do it all even though the media makes it out like he can.

I like us in that game.

With a new HC, it's a new program in a new conference. If Oregon can become a very good football program, anyone can. They still have a lot to prove but seem to be headed in the right direction

I didn't try to prove shite. I wasn't the one who said they were a juggernaut. I only meant to tell you why they're being labeled that way.

I can't say I disagree, especially of our offense will just shite the bed even with a worse defense. 2013 won't be the year but 2014 may have potential to be great.
