I appreciate your attempt though. Ah, but did he come back on the field to win after being assisted off to evaluate a knee injury (wore a brace the rest of the season) on a TD throw? LOL! BTW just so you know. My connection to Alabama goes all the way back to my HS coach (1962-65) who was a Bama grad and our HS Principal, also a Bama grad. I admired both of those guys and always teased them about having to steal the Bear from A&M to get those National Championships. Unfortunately many years later when when my coach was Superintendent of Schools in Columbus, Ga. almost 30 years ago, a nighttime intruder in his home stuck a large dagger in his heart and he died on the spot. https://www.ledger-enquirer.com/news/local/article29349244.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasAg1969 Posted December 14, 2021 Report Share Posted December 14, 2021 A&M's starting QB that was elevated there after the injury to the starter Haynes King, is now in the transfer portal and A&M will have to start a walk-on true freshman who has thrown less that 10 passes all year. This will be a disaster against Wake Forest in the Gator Bowl, so get your bets in early. There is no backup unless they take the TE Eli Stowers back off that position which they had switched him to from QB this fall. With two of the best QBs in the nation coming in this spring and the following spring along with King returning from injury, it is no surprise that the 4th best among them is in the transfer portal. We were lucky to go 8-4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasAg1969 Posted December 19, 2021 Report Share Posted December 19, 2021 OK-since many have avoided it here, time to talk national recruiting. That upstart 3rd tier SEC program was announced as the first day of early signing top recruiting class in the country. https://www.espn.com/college-sports/recruiting/football/story/_/id/32877699/texas-aggies-pushes-alabama-crimson-tide-no-1-ranked-class-first-day-early-signing-period Since that time that have gotten the LSU starting QB Max Johnson to sign through the portal and added a couple more itty bitty 5***** skill players. https://247sports.com/college/texas-am/Article/Evan-Stewart-Texas-AM-Football-Recruiting-National-Signing-Day-Frisco-wide-receiver-2022-class-178331866/?utm_source=247Sports%2520Newsletter&utm_medium=Newsletter&utm_campaign=211216_174753_TexasA%26MAggies&utm_content=Image&eid=c780a40b821957c690b8d305176df6c4ec80c0a431e9641419612d4c0fe6b57c https://247sports.com/college/texas-am/Article/Denver-Harris-Texas-AM-football-recruiting-commit-Signing-Day-North-Shore-five-star-Aggies-176980109/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLD Woody Posted December 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2021 Let's see if the Aggies can do anything with them... Already seeing more parity in recruiting thanks to NIL, which is good. The next class will be the real indication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When this class is all juniors that will be the real test. This year we had to play with a 2nd string QB who has already entered the portal. He knows he will not see the field again with 3 more talented QBs on the roster ahead of him. Our bowl game will be without a real schollie QB and gone are our best RB, DLman, OLman and TE after they declared for the draft early. I still can't figure why they are favored by 5 still.

I think it likely Mich faces Georgia and if they win that, Bama. Oh well, mice and men.😈 The real question now becomes can Georgia make up for the blowout SEC Championship loss?

Bama and their commitment to the running game had less to do with Metchie and more to do with how Cincy structured their defense. It was going to be a rush heavy game before Metchie was announced out - which is why Vegas hammered the under so hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was going to be a rush heavy game before Metchie was announced out - which is why Vegas hammered the under so hard. True, but what Bama usually does is hammer with the run game and set you up deep with Williams about 4-5 times a game by clearing the underside with Metchie with constant threats to short/intermediate routes as part of that run game/PA. Williams took on that usual Metchie role which was easy for him since they always have to fear him blowing by deep. Either way it was a great plan of ball control to keep the Cincy O off the field cooling their heels on the bench. Robinson was in beastmode. Now the upcoming game with Georgia is gong to be a greater challenge without Metchie unless one of the lessor used WRs steps into his role. I think without him Georgia has a far greater chance to win it all the second go-round. I can't see another Bama killing like they did in the SEC Championship game. It's gonna look like an NFL knockdown dragout IMO. This is going to be old style trench warfare. They both have the lines to do it if Georgia doesn't play scared.

tiamat63 Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 @TexasAg1969 I gave you a 36hour grieving period, but this was the best thread to resurrect this topic... After joining the company of Michigan's 15 year old historic failure, I'm putting a 10 year moratorium on any and all "S-E-C BRUH" talk from you. This embargo can and will be lifted early, contingent upon Texas A&M winning a conference title. All reviews and determinations are final. Thank you for attending this hearing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjp28 Posted September 13, 2022 Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 Good question, well ALA, ND lost but #4 ? Really ? Maybe 8-10 ? We'll see what happens next week. There is more parity in college football every single year. GO BUCKEYES, YSU both 2 -0 and ND 0-2 ? Blew it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
