Texas A&M is my alma matter, but yes- we have a lot more T-shirt fans now.

Stop being such a stan.

I'm not editing mine.

Why does it got to be about the next level? Manziel is as good as it gets as a college QB.

Meh... I was kinda grumpy last night because I'm sick. A bit of overreaction on my part, but...

Jonathan Pigskin is fun to watch as a college QB, and he's fantastically athletic. Yet, with the position he's put himself in, it's hard not to judge his on-field judgement and decision making with a pro-style mindset. I've said here before that I believe his luck trumps his skill quite often, and I don't think he'll get away with as much as he does in the NFL.

Regardless of all this, last night's game was incredible (until I passed out at the beginning of the fourth quarter).

Did anyone hear/read about the AP photographer who had a heart attack on the field during the celebration? He passed away a few hours later.

McShay has Manziel going #4 to the Browns in his latest mock. God I hope that doesn't happen.

I would be shocked if mr football went that high.

However, in a league in desperate need of QB's I guess anything is possible.

Bruce Ellington just made a great catch to keep a drive alive for South Carolina.

Wisconsin's defense has been up and down today.

great catch by roland but one of the wisky dbs should've put a hand on it.

The one constant in each of their losses this year has been letting up big downfield plays because the secondary isn't super quick or really that athletic.

THAT WAS A HUGE RETURN!

El Turco · Post #753 » by **El Turco** » Wed Jan 1, 2014 8:44 pm

haven't watched him much before but connor shaw looks like top 5 qb in the draft, he has been almost perfect although wisky defense sure helps him

Curt Phillips is tragically awful, though that should be apparent by the fact that Joel Stave beat him out for QB1.

Post #755 » by **Da Schwab** » Wed Jan 1, 2014 9:01 pm

I'm gunna miss Chris Borland.

El Turco · Post #756 » by **El Turco** » Wed Jan 1, 2014 9:03 pm

worst throw i've seen in long time

Post #757 » by **Da Schwab** » Wed Jan 1, 2014 9:04 pm

Curt Phillips really doesn't want the chance to win this game.

Unless they get another turnover, that will mean this senior class will graduate without a bowl win.

Post #758 » by **Da Schwab** » Wed Jan 1, 2014 9:08 pm

This loss stings a little less, I will admit. It's not a BCS bowl and I don't mind South Carolina. It's tough to think what the season would be like without the refs f*cking it up against ASU and sh*tting the bed against Penn State.

I just wish this damn school could recruit a serviceable QB.

El Turco · Post #759 » by **El Turco** » Wed Jan 1, 2014 9:10 pm

turned to outback bowl just in time to catch another terrible throw by a big ten qb, they need to invest in qb coaching up north

Outside of the A&M game last night I haven't really been into bowl season. With that being said, I'm about to put everything in my life on hold because of the Stanford/Michigan St game. That game is going to be every bit as good as advertised.
