If that guy is another step slower that ball touches the return man and then he pops it right out for a fumble.<BR/><BR/>LOPEY-- you have definitely NOT ever played football and your name rhymes with "DOPEY". That is an extreme penalty because the receiver is unprotected. It is cheaper than cheap!Defenders are supposed to allow a 3 yard "buffer" zone around the receiver. I am 50 years old and I could run down and cheap shot an unprotected punt returner, it takes no skill. C'mon LOPEY, get with the program. Let's play some ball dude, you got nothing apparently. And football is obviously not yer game.<BR/><BR/>love--davebyers.netAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-13948356759387927802007-10-24T07:41:00.000-07:002007-10-24T07:41:00.000-07:00Q: Why the hell do Aggies call Texas "tu"?

I seriously dont know.<BR/><BR/>A: Texas A&M University was in existence before The University of Texas. (Actually, Baylor is the oldest university in Texas.) Aggies are highly offended that UT is called THE University of Texas. <BR/><BR/>The way UT grads look at it is that, yes, A&M was started before UT, but the state realized the error of its' ways and then built a university that students could actually get a first-rate education without going east (Ivy League, etc.) or west (Stanford, etc.). A&M continues to strive to become one of the top state institutions in the country. UT is already there. They carry around an inferiority complex, not only about academics, but athletics, as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-1169750302994359352007-01-25T10:38:00.000-08:002007-01-25T10:38:00.000-08:00Please.

Texas A&M's Kellen Heard received more votes than Iowa's King that rips a helmet off and punches a player in the face or Texas Tech's guy who was on the sidelines? I'm sorry, but you longhorns are kidding yourself. That was a late hit, but those other two plays are obviously cheaper. I think that if Texas had won this game there would not be this much controversy. I do believe that Heard and A&M apologized for this. Right?

The cheap s...All right guys,<BR/><BR/>Let's bury the hatchet. The cheap shots are apparently not left on the field. I personally nominate Texas (or t.u. if you prefer) and Texas A&M (or Aggy if you prefer...which curiously keeps being used in the plural sense by students of such a "higher class" school) fans on this website for cheap shots of the year.<BR/><BR/>Bonfire: I lost 7 friends in that accident and it was just that...an accident. College age kids thought supervision and knowledge was there when it wasn't. The next time you make fun of those students (does it really matter what school they went to?) remember that someone who posted here went to 7 funerals in 6 days. It isn't funny or stupid...it is tragic, not a punchline.<BR/><BR/>As for those Corps guys "Squeezing their package", I think you see soccer players do this all the time. These freshmen are guarding the school mascot (which is why they are so close together). They are protecting themselves due to a several longhorns who have taken cheap shots at the cadets guarding Revielle. I wish that the person who got this video would have given it some context.<BR/><BR/>"Anal rape sessions at fish camp": WTF? Unbridled hatred at its worst.<BR/><BR/>"The players were also dancing around while colt was laying motionless at the end of the game...":<BR/><BR/>I doubt you were at the game, much less watched it on TV. He jogged off the field after Heard was ejected with approximately 1:20ish left on the clock. Despite excellent field position, we didn't score and you got the ball back. With 20 seconds left he was hit cleanly, but taken out of the game while immobilized on a stretcher (with absolutely NOTHING to do with this play). This is commonly done as a precaution when neck injuries may have happened and often was done for no reason. At the end of the game no one knows exactly where he was, but he wasn't on the field. Aggies everywhere celebrated a win. What do you want us to do? Quietly walk off the field and be sad? There were no additional injuries to your QB. No one on the Aggie bench rejoiced at actual injuries (maybe the fact he was out of the game, but not at his injuries).<BR/><BR/>That said, the discussion of the facts regarding Heard's hit is INSANE!!! Let's talk facts that everyone agrees on:<BR/>1. Heard made the hit<BR/>2. It was rough and on a QB with an injury from a previous game.<BR/>3. Heard was penalized (sp?).<BR/>4. Timing: Aggies and Longhorns aren't going to agree on this, so why not just agree to disagree? I think EVERY reasonable person should agree that if the whistle blew even 1 step before his hit, it was a late hit. If a whistle didn't blow, then it was a valid hit. Can we all just agree on that?<BR/><BR/>I'll assume the referees got it right and he was ejected for a cheap shot.<BR/><BR/>That said, I think McCoy was stupid for:<BR/>1) walking towards the wrong bench<BR/>2) taking his chin strap on<BR/>3) doing a bad acting job (he gets up after Heard is ejected and jogs off the field)<BR/><BR/>Guys, get a better O-Line or McCoy is gonna get hurt again next year.<BR/><BR/>Oh as for the last time we went to a BCS game: 1998 season - Sugar Bowl vs. Ohio State. From the Big XII and BCS's inception, we beat you to a BCS game and a Big XII championship. Our athletics program is currently 20th out of ~150 Div I programs. Texas is about #5. Both are high class institutions in different ways.<BR/><BR/>SoonerMark: to paraphrase, you are a POS and NO ONE likes the Sooners.<BR/>We win/lose with dignity and leave it all on the field. Fans like you make any team look bad. For the most part Aggies support their team. People like you try to make yourself feel better by putting other people down (especially those who have lost a game). You think you are creative for putting an F in front of Aggies. You have issues.<BR/><BR/>"No wonder aggie is the most..." <BR/>and your eloquent grammar shows just how much of an education OU provides.

Heisman candidate Roosevelt Leaks was not injured by a late hit, but the fans celebrated loudly, waved their towels and were directed by the players on the field. Leak's injury was season ending and impacted the rest of his college and pro career.<BR/><BR/>I realize this is old history, but never is a long time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-1165850438229253532006-12-11T07:20:00.000-08:002006-12-11T07:20:00.000-08:00The more interesting aspect of this thread than th...The more interesting aspect of this thread than the late hits is the information it provided regarding Texas A&M.<BR/><BR/>Up north Texas A&M doesn't receive much publicity which is unfortunate because you guys are hilarious.

But, many Aggies are defending it and it is indefensible. Even his own players are chewing his ass after the play. The whistle had long blown. IMO, Snead should have started the game anyway. I believe had Brown done so we would have won. Snead played well against KState putting up 35 points. Our defense let us down in that game. Although, A&M ran on us very well, they didn't put up a lot of points. When you only score 12 you ought to lose against a talented offensive team. McCoy definitely wasn't right. A&M played better in this game, but I'll say this.........as we speak they are being out recruited and have been for years. As someone said, this was an aberation, nothing more. I see a silver lining in it for Longhorn fans. A&M has to keep "Coach Fran". Many Aggies were sorry to see him win because they didn't want to keep him. Now, A&M can't begin to justify firing him. He'll never match recruits with Brown. I was worried if Texas won A&M might really get a good coach and recruiter in there. Now, Brown and Stoops have nothing to fear in that regard.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-1165741747815680212006-12-10T01:09:00.000-08:002006-12-10T01:09:00.000-08:00I'm not that familiar with the teams from Texas, b...I'm not that familiar with the teams from Texas, but the posts here from aggie fans speak volumes.
