bullet i really do not feel like a volley but are you a horn? if your are your team was smoked last night and I was there and luved it. ;D i am a horn fan, but i don't have any problem admitting that we got it handed to us... i thought your made that comment in reference to my earlier, optimistic post that i felt the horns are good enough to compete with the ags the next time they play. you won't get any argument from me about who the better team was last night.

thanks for the information, though.

kinda sucks that i get to finally go to a game and i don't get to watch any of our europe players...

has anyone seen the US roster for this one? i'm ready to go get beer thrown on me!

it could happen... i don't see it happening, but i guess you never know.

no, the comment about some Horn fans having a hard time with reality and defeat...

forget it... if we could get him cheap, then good deal. parting with harris, stackhouse, and either bass or diop is too much to spend to aquire grandfather kidd.

i don't know that you can single out any one single sector of the school in this situation. they all should share the blame. if you'll repost the article on here i'll explain myself a little better, dick.

Amen!

is that directed at me?

that's a tough question to answer with all of the talented freshmen this year... i guess i'm going to to go with beasley from K-state. if he's not the best, i would still say he probably has the most upside.

man, i hope the football team gets more support from the students than the vote for the football team did.

i'm not a fan... maybe for any game they might play in san francisco, though...

EC vs. Hardin

i don't know... i kinda like LCM in another OT game, but these are both very good clubs this year.

i just hope if it does pass that lamar does something with the team, and takes the steps necessary to make it competitive. this isn't like the girls' soccer team. they had a really tough year, but they're a really cheap investment. if lamar's going to do football, i hope they put the money into the program to do it right. they may have already outlined a budget for the program if it passes, but i haven't seen it.

the Big 12 is for real... the top 9 or 10 teams are good enough beat anyone on any given night.

Aggie, that is definitive... i can't really argue your point

ST4life... i was really just trying to keep this thread from turning into what it's turned into, a bunch of back and forth between fans and little to nothing about the game. a lot of that is my fault, and i've already apologized for it. you were in fact just talking to MWhizzie, and once again, my fault for saying anything, but i've seen you do similar things before and turn whole threads into arguments (and Mwhizzie as well, which was why i wanted to stop it). i think you accused me of talking crap on silsbee before... i'm pretty sure the only time i've ever said anything against silsbee would've been when you and i went back and forth before, and even then it was little or nothing against the school itself. in general the worst thing i would've done would've been predicting HJ to beat them. If you'll read this and the other thread, HJ has almost unanimously been respectful and congratulatory to silsbee after this game, myself included. i just didn't want you turning that into something nasty by talking noise, but at this point it doesn't matter, we're already there. congrats once again to silsbee on a nice win, and good luck to both teams the rest of the way out.

this game was miserable to watch. on a positive note, there's no doubt in my mind that Texas can beat aTm. Here's why: a) the next time they play, aTm will not start out 6 of 7 from behind the arc. texas got awful performances from their top 3 players tonight, and still kept things semi-interesting for most of the game. c) as badly as they played, and even though they were in a 21 point hole after 10 minutes or so, texas won the last 30 minutes of the game by 4 points, and this while both teams were playing with starters until about 2 minutes left. this margin would've been even greater had texas not been chunking up desperate 3's the last minutes of the game, and had their freshmen not been committing stupid fouls to extend the game, giving aTm a ton of freethrows in the dying minutes. realistically, this final could've been closer to a 10 point win for the ags. d) augustin's shot selection was terrible. the entire game he was forcing up bad shots. this really hurt the longhorns. it won't happen again. e) james was pretty much a non-factor. this also won't happen again. f) texas gave away at least 6 points due to technical fouls (counting aTm's subsequent possessions). it is doubtful that this will happen again. g) the next game is in austin! h) texas was 11-21 on freethrows. they will do better next game. on the flipside, aTm, who is a dismal freethrow shooting team, shot almost 70% from the line, which is for them, pretty good. hopefully in a hostile environment they will do worse next game. Note that none of the above are excuses. aTm badly outplayed Texas the first ten minutes of the game, and then managed to play well enough to keep texas from getting back in it the rest of the way. the aggies played excellent defense, and texas had no answer for their post play. aTm more than deserved this win, and i give the credit where it's due. if texas had gotten a normal performance from james or augustin, i think this would've been a reasonably close game. some of their struggles were caused by aTm's defense, but augustin in particular just flat out played bad. i'm confident that when the rematch rolls around, Texas will be more than ready, and it will be a much more competitive game, with Texas having a very realistic shot at winning it. Congrats to the aggies for ruining my night...

mwhizzie doesn't count... you've been on here enough to know that... i've gotten onto him before. he's always going to do that... he's just about the only one from HJ. one of the main reasons i said anything at all was to keep mwhizzie from getting started up. i will say that in my opinion, HJ's "outhouse" is one of the cleaner crappers on this site. as for venting in my house or your house, i'll vent wherever i'd like, especially if someone comes knocking on the door talking crap. you're basically doing the same thing i did.

lightening quick 8-0 run by texas, 31-18. still bad, but looks a little better.

texas looks awful... they're a little unlucky that aTm can't miss a 3... as bad as they're playing, the should probably only be down 10 or 12, but the ags are absolutely dominating them.

they might be bigger, but even if the ags pull this one off, i don't know that they're the better team this year. Texas is young, but they're really, really good. i take it back... you were right, i was wrong. Texas looks terrible so far. the aTm team from the beginning of the year is back.

so orangefield is alone in 3rd right now? i knew they were improved, but i'm surprised they've been able to keep it up this deep into district. good luck OF!
