Texas A&M @ UCLA

I really don't take any joy in the state of college football in this state.  But I remember being ridiculed for having A&M has "zero chance" to make the playoffs once that infamous initial CFP poll last year.  Some got a really good laugh. 

Just read that since that poll was released, A&M is 2-6.  And oh yeah, those two wins were against UTSA and New Mexico State.

Seriously though, what kind of message did the coaching staff send to Hubanek by keeping him on the bench? He might not be the answer going forward, but the guy has stuck with the program year after year. Hindsight is 20/20, but imo he would've brought the victory home. Is he hurt, in the dog house, or what?

Mond was 3-17 passing.  I can't run like him but I'm pretty sure I could complete more than 17% of my passes.  Hubaneck is a very serviceable QB. No clue why he was never in the game.

I didn't' see the game at all. Satellite not giving me local channels yet.

From what I have read, Ags built a huge lead running the ball down their throats. Wrecking crew was holding UCLA to 10 or less. Ags end up throwing the ball with a huge lead......RUN CLOCK! Cant tell what all happened, but must have been some pick sixes and fumble returns. Maybe a punt return.....wasn't posted. Will look at stat page today.

You're sitting there with 2 hosses in the background and continue to pass pass pass in the 4th quarter. Who here wants to tackle either one of those. Ford will flat run over you. Williams is possibly one of, if not the best in the nation and will be worthy of Heisman consideration at season's end. It's a shame Sumlin didn't take charge and have his OC run the dang ball. This loss isn't on the kids, it's on the Head Coach and his staff. Too many times coaches take credit for the win and are ready to throw blame elsewhere with a loss. "Point the thumb, not the finger!"

    • Really good hire! As I stated previously on this thread, Mike T has been an essential part of WB’s success the last few years & is a student of the game & I have a ton of respect for how he goes about things as a coach. Big on teaching kids how to do things the right way to prepare them for not only basketball but the game of life. He’ll be fine there, my only question is what kind of talent does WB have returning?  Best thing about this situation for Mike T is WB will be 5A for at least the next 2 years, so he should win a lot of games & have some deep playoff runs.
    • So which coaches kid gets the QB job? Trotter or Barrier
    • A Winnie land owner (and others) sued the State of Texas after they built IH-10 a few feet higher in order to help contain storm flooding. Sure enough a hurricane hit and flooded the land. The storm improvements worked!! Unfortunately the state sacrificed several people’s properties in using the interstate highway as a dam.  Richard DeVillier tried to sue Texas under our laws and Constitution and the US Constitution under the Fifth Amendment “taking clause” (eminent domain). After a favorable ruling in the federal district court on the right to sue Texas directly, the Fifth Circuit Court in New Orleans overturned that ruling and said that the DeVlier had no authority to sue Texas directly.  On Tuesday a unanimous US Supreme Court ruled that DeVillier and others had the right to sue Texas directly under Texas law and under the Fifth Amendment of the US Constitution. The case is now sent back down to the lower court. DeVillier and others have not won their lawsuits as the case has not been decided on its merits at a trial. He still has to go to prove his case. What they did win was a unanimous Supreme Court agreeing that he has the right to bring Texas to trial for taking his property with just compensation.
