I think itโs probably semi true. It probably wasnโt just a quick Iโm going to get my phone and be back. It likely was loitering in the lobby or something for a little bit.ย ย But at the same time this is not a team that has earned any wiggle room today. A team that lacked focus last week canโt afford to have kids breaking curfew for a forgotten cell phone because what 18 year old in todays world doesnโt have his phone permanently glued to his had. I mean Evan stewart has like a million followers on social media, I doubt he goes more than 30 seconds without checking his phone. No way it was left at the house. I mean even me, an Aggie, is not wanting the kid to play today. Rules are rules idc how good you are.ย 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Television really wants/needs the U or FSU to be back. Clemson being the only legitimate threat in the ACC has watered down the ACC product and honestly college football is just better when either of those two are good. They will sunshine pump them every time they show even a glimmer of positive momentum. USC is in the same boat.ย ย I think in general the college football world is ready to move on from the same 5. Bama, Georgia, Clemson, Ohio st and OU have been the consistent teams for most of the playoff era. Having Michigan, Miami/FSU, USC, or Texas make their way back into consistent contention would do wonders for the parity of the sport. Thatโs not even counting teams that are close to being good but having historically been in that national title talk like A&M, Oregon, Michigan st etc. the sport doesnโt want deeper playoffs, it wants parity. The unfortunate thing is people do not understand that a expanded playoff doesnโt give you parity it just gives those top 5 more room for error.ย 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did okay. What he did well was get the ball into a play makerโs hands. He also ran well when needed. The offense was pretty bland. Aggie defense stepped up big time. Two players ejected for targeting and a few others out for them, and the back ups played great.

Between him and the defense they will be in most games, I just donโt think the offense will always be enough to win them. I do think that the two big play threats of Stewart and Marshall being out with suspension really impacted the passing game. The other guys just do not get separation.ย 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That alone was big as he protected the ball better. He wonโt be the reason A&M wins many games, but he shouldnโt be the reason they lose.ย I still think last night was the best chance to give Weigman the opportunity, however. I think we see him take over at some point this season, and it made more sense to me to give him that opportunity before conference play starts.ย Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if they drop the next 2 or 3 in the next month like is possible then yea I could see them taking their chances. But for now thereโs still enough to play for I think you roll with Max and try to scrounge out some ugly wins. If you beat Arkansas this week youโre still on a good track in terms of SEC play. I wouldnโt hit the โlet the qb take his lumpsโ button until your second conference loss.ย 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
