WETSU

I dont think so...Not with Saban coming off a bye week. They had their gut check against Tennessee before a bye week to prepare for LSU. Bama wins 16-9

No lip from me saying texas is not a great program...But to say they are great and A&M is pathetic is just a blind statement from a biased fan. They have the same number of big 12 titles. You cannot be SO MUCH BETTER than a team when you have the same number of conference titles since the joinging the big 12 and when you have dropped 2 of the last 3 to them. Now when it comes to a national scene Texas is in the top 5 with OU USC Ohio st and a tei between LSU and Florida. No doubt about it...But that does not make A&M a bad team. I dont understand why lots of Texas fans think just because the aggies are not in the National title hunt they are some horrible team not worth playing on the same field as Texas.

Ive heard that too.. Sounds like forcing down and distance might be the only way to beat Texas...Problem is when you hold them down on offense they will score on special teams and defense lol. I still have doubts about their offense but their defense and special teams are dang good. A smart turnover free team who can cover punts should be ok though...

O ok. That makes since...After all. everyone holds back when they are killing someone lol.

Good post. your are certainly right about the defense giving Johnson more opportunities. I think people were saying from a record standpoint it hurts him...They run the hurry up so he gets plenty of opportunities as is. Colt has been playing alot better lately and i look for him to get better as the season goes on. IM not sure i believe Mack when he says they are holding back. There may have been a few plays open in the OSU game he didnt run but thats jsut one game. If they know of things open and were holding them back against OU and during the CU when they were trailing i think it was very dumb to hold them back. The OU game was way too close to be saving plays for the national title. Too much football left on the schedule for stuff like that in a must win game.

"Gonna hold my boy back for frosh tryouts next year...8th grade aint so bad is it son." Varsity blues. lol I wonder how many people actually do this. There is alot of development between 17 and 19. Gives kids a boost for that senior year of HS. With a dad as a coach having learned the system since pee wee at southlake he was pretty much a coach on the field. The kid was good lol

I agree...Im not a fan of Colt winning the Heisman or all big 12 at this point lol. But ill admit that no qb in the big 12 has just blown me away like i thought they would this season. I know Bradford is hurt and Mccoy has played a little rocky but i thought to see a little more from Robinson and the way Reesing has blown up lately is just odd considering how his career has gone. Potts was way overrated and Griffin is out for the year. Johnson is playing as well as anyone but plays for the aggies so there goes any recognition for him lol. Look for Colt to get the nod for the all big 12 and the Heisman. :thumbdown: Top player on the top team...No matter what stats show lol Records is all that matters unfortunatly. He could split time with Gilbert from here on out and probably still win it.

Agreed. I dont think SOS is a factor in their success right now.

i know that its great to be a college coach, but leaving South Lake was the dumbest thing Dodge has done lol. his teams there would dominate UNT. But on a serious note this guy is a good coach and i think if they let him hand around long enough he will be able to turn UNT around. Its going to take some work but it can be done. I dont know how good he is as a recruiting coach though...He should know the area.

Go get em jethro. I want to see some seniors play well in their last game. It would be nice to see Collins and Gillard get the rock in their hands a little bit. Buth those guys run hard and i hope they get a few touches in their final game. I think they both needed the ball all lot more than they got it this season. They are natural runners, maybe not the fastest guys but when you run hard speed doesnt matter if you can just get 3-4 yards at a time. They would have been very good at running the veer with Tatum and co being the pitch man...Too bad we will never know lol

Is colt three wins from breaking the record or three wins from matching it. I was just wondering which game we can expect to see him break it.

Which teams in the big 12 have freshman that are coming in and can make an immediate impacts on their teams in 2010?

Shermans job has NEVER been on the line this season or last. The A&M faithful know this is going to take time and i believe he is on the right track. The recruits coming in have already showed to be good and the class coming in next season is loaded with oline and LB prospects, the two areas most needed. He will have the aggies back in the big 12 south contention in a year or two just watch. And what makes Texas think they are among the Nations elite with just one conference title in the last 15 years... I know Texas is one of the elite programs in the country and have no problem admitting it. But i mean Texas fans always make A&M out to be the worst team in the big 12 but have more losses to them in the last 25 years than any other team in the counrty. So get real man... A&M is coming off a 4-8 season but its not like they are school of the blind potential

what does the aggies schedule have to do with anything lol... Texas is legit and i believe they are in the top two teams in the country. Now does that mean they are a lock to go undefeated and play in the MNC, no. I think that people are looking at Texas and saying that nobody else on their schedule is even a challenge and i believe that is simply no a true statement. To say that Reesing is not capable of catching another gear and upsetting them is not a smart idea. I dont think will happen but its not too far fetched. Also playing a solid A&M team in College Station is not exactly my idea of a safe game for Texas team any season. To say that A&M does not have a prayer of winning a home game against them is being a little arogant... I do not think that Texas will lose to either of these teams but it would not be the biggest upset in the world if they did.

i agree there...Those stats are impressive. but half of them also came in one game against a weak tulsa game. They guy is good though and next season will be scary good...I wish he was a senior lol

How come every Texas fan can troll the Aggie treads but i am a anti longhorn...I think Texas is the best team in the country right now by far...But they have weaknesses. I mean how hard is that to grasp guys. It doesnt take a hater to see that.

I never intended to bash the longhorns or Colt. I just simply stated that the stats show that Colt is not playing at the highest level in the big 12. Im not saying Johnson is better than Mccoy. Its comparing apples and oranges. But despite the two teams records Johnsons stats are better. I think that has to put him in the consideration for one of the better qbs in the big 12 this season. And immortal TAMU is not a perenial losing program...I mean get real dude. They have had only three losing seasons in past 20 years. Now A&M is not at the level that Texas has been lately but to call them losers is just childish. Considering A&M has 2 of the last 3 and 14 of the last 25 against your Horns it doesnt say too much of them if the aggies are perenial losers. Try to use a little logic in your post...I never said that Colt wasnt good and the horns were not a legit contender so quit getting upset at someone saying that their might be a qb as good as colt this season. If Colts Defensive buddies can help his record how come Johnsons defense cant hurt his...

Thats weak man...I hope you are a player from Timpson. I dont see any mature adult or football fan making ridiculously foolish statements against a struggling team. :thumbdown:

the fact that tebow is even in discussion is a joke... Also i think Keenum needs to be at worst #3. I dont see how Colt is number one either but we all know he will win it. The Heisman voters feel bad for the "shaft" Texas and Mccoy got last season so they will not make that mistake twice. Look how much bad puplicity it already caused the first time. I hate seeing him and Tebow still in the discussion because they "started" the season as the favorites. Neither one has put up a better case then Ingram Keenum Clausen or Moore.

i agree...the A&M Tech game was going to be on tv but after the beat down Kst laid on A&M they decided to take it off thinking A&M would be a 30+ point underdog i guess... Guess they were wrong. lol BUt i look for every game from here on out to be on tv live. CU already is, OU will be next week, Baylor might be on FSNSW and you know the game on Thanksgiving will be. I think the ags finish at 7-5 but i really think they could hang with OU and finish 8-4. Im not even going to pray for a win against Texas. I want Sherman and Co to show me up on that one... Im pulling for them thats for sure.

Man dont bash the kids lol This was meant to be a good thing for them on smoaky for a change... If that comment was about the kids being soft and not hitting hard i think your off base there. They are not just super hard hitting or anything but the d line is very strong and physical. They LB are just small but they do come up and give the effort. Have you had a chance to see them play this year kirt?

they were televised against ok st and will be on fox sports sw sat vs colorado...You can also see al their games on the big 12 rewind on fsnsw.

I agree with Keenum. He should be the only person in the discussion right now for Heisman. But this tread is about the Big 12. Yea Colts qb rating is higher than JJ...1 point higher. Not enough to sway my vote. I would not say Johnson exploding is the reason for losses at Kst and Ark. The defense lost those games but if you want to play that card how many games this season has the Texas defense bailed out Mccoy. He hasnt put the team on his shoulders and won a game this season either. I just think that we are comparing the careers of the two top qbs in the big 12 right now instead of what they have done for their team this season. When you look at records and stats its the tale of two different guys making their case. If you choose wins Mccoy no question. But choose him for what he has done this year. Forget about what happened last season or throughout his career. Also when looking at JJ losses remember that this is a team game and the defense you have behind you can make all the deference. He hasnt choked in the aggie losses, rather than the defense costing the game. Tech qbs are deserving of the raward most years but Seldom get it...I agree there. But then i look at this season and all three qbs tech has used and it does make me wonder if they could put the punter in and move the ball lol. I know all three are talented but the offense seems to not miss a beat no matter who is in.

The only arguement here is who is putting up numbers this season and who isnt... Its not a comparison of careers. And its not fair to compare them even if you wanted too because of the talent around them. I dont think Colt could put up his career numbers at A&M do you? Its like comparing apples and oranges if you compare wins and losses. Im talking strictly stats for just this season. By the way what is Colts record against those horrible aggies again? Even if he wins this season and goes 2-2, thats still not very good against a team you consider inferior mortal...

Just going to respond with three comments. First this is not comparing the careers of the two qbs. Just this season for all conference. Second, if you look at the Ark game Johnson still had his numbers. The only bad game he has really had is K st where he threw 3 picks but he also had 200+ yards and 2 tds thrown as well. When playing from behind and your defense cannot make a stop the offense will struggle. two of his picks vs k st were receivers and tipped #### as well. Johsnson has had 3 games where he did not come from behind and or play close so that is not an excuse either. And finally Colt struggled vs OU too so its not going to be a shock if Johnson does. The aggie running game is second best in the conference so i think that and the vertical passing style of Shermans offense will allow Johnson to be ok vs OU. ANd like i said earlier, Colt does not have to play his own defense so he cannot throw a bad game against them. But if he did have to play them he would not be any better than anyone else against them...
