If I see Marcel Reed run wild for a 3rd straight game on a Blake Baker defense I'm gonna toss my tv through window.

Baker had better have this fixed this year. Reed hasn't really done much on the ground through the first 3vweeks either. If other far less talented teams can contain him then we'd better!

Eh I'll turn it off and go for a run.

Having a healthy Whit and TJ will make every difference in the world.

The amount of money in the sport waters down the emotions, but when the lights get bright and a ref fricks us or our defense is playing poorly, I still am a lunatic sadly. Better to plan around it rather than trying to fix it at this point.

Reed will have some big plays. Even in his last 4 games where he played overall quite poorly, he made big plays with his feet. The key is to just stop the run and not allow his scrambling to pick up multiple first downs. He has shown that he will throw the ball to the defense if they force him to sit back there and be precise throwing it. We actually got him to throw it our way twice to end the first half a season ago - it's the main reason we had a halftime lead.

You have no idea how mad you are going to be. Nothing worse than getting beat than when Joe Tess is at the mic.

That said I think this D will be ready.

Conversely, I'm going to cheer and scream my head off when Marcel TRIES doing this and gets planted in the ground after a 2 yard gain by Dottery or Weeks.

Just have a feeling that Whit and TJ are going to have a very good game which is going to help limit Reed's legs. I'm more concerned with our offensive passing game.

If we don't beat the aggies in a convincing manner, there are going to have to be some uncomfortable conversations in that athletic department. If LSU is truly a playoff caliber team, beating Texas AM by 20 shouldn't be that much of a problem.

As a person gets older, trivial things mean less and less. Get a terminal diagnosis and see how many things you used to worry about don’t mean much anymore.

agreed. I don't get emotional anymore, the game just isn't as pure as it was.

But yeah, Baker makes brink truck money.

Both teams will be playing a bit with their backs against the wall, but A&M more so because the KY loss gives them really no margin for error from here on out.

Then Baker is fired and will never be a head coach.

Hahahahah facts

Not only that but it’s not true. My grandpa was literally on his last day of life and was screaming for pass interference watching a LSU game.
