Attempted justification is just that. Attempted. Texas A&M did not want to risk losing to Tech. It would, as pointed out previously, ruined the notion of We Run this State. Yes, you have played two big 12 teams in bowl games, but this game makes too much sense for everyone. LSU may have wanted the game, but there would have been better TV ratings and money for both conference if it was Tech A&M. The idea that Louisville is better than Tech is an even father reach. A&M has not faced an offense as good as Tech's since leaving the Big 12. That would have caused problems. Granted they would not have faced a defense as bad since either. If Louisville and Tech played on a neutral field it would have been about 3 TD win for Tech. Finally the idea of not going to Vanderbilt for 10 years is the worst attempted justification because recruiting is not going to regularly occur for A&M that far away. It should stay within Texas and LSU, unless players start choosing other schools. Also ruining the notion of We Run this State. The fans wanted this. The bowl organizers wanted this. Texas in general wanted this, probably worst than a Texas A&M game last year, because that would have been a blowout for A&M. This would be a fun exciting game, but A&M does not want to face a Big 12 Texas team. That is a fact. The justification can be made, but it is attempted justification, not the truth. A&M had a chance to prove that they do run this state but they will not take the risk.

Had to bold that key word, WHEN, but tonight was only by 5.
 

I think they are in Cuero and the surrounding areas. It is just a guess. They could be in Gilmer or Celina as well.

A&M what happened? Home game for the 2nd year in a row and y'all turn it down. I can understand Texas last year, but really little old Tech got y'all scared to play.

Bostonians in general are crazy when it comes to sports. They are even worse than Tech fans.

Boston fans are crazy (Jahill Okafer) and David Lee will want to play a good game. Glad we have two days to rest. After tonight though tied for 2nd longest win streak in NBA history with the Heat at 27 games.

This is the prime example of why you have to play for 48 minutes. After tonight real worried about Friday in Boston.

Realized I forget to list my game:
Aledo vs. Lake Ridge
Defense vs. Offense

Rohan Marley Linebacker played in Canada for a season

what about Celina?

Just to watch. Texas goes up 20-0. The offense stalls from about midway through the 2nd until 5:00 mins left in the 4th. Baylor runs out of QB and somehow makes it 20-17 running basically one play out of the single-wing the entire 2nd half. Neither team throw the football more than five yards downfield. Plus the refs seemed to not even care about the game.

To me this was the saddest college football game in the State of Texas ever.

The refs don't care what either side does anymore. Not calling anything on that scuffle between Locke and Coleman, told me that these refs will make football penalty calls, such as holding and offside, but everything else is fair game

You were right it was a defensive game. Wylie scored on a 92 yard pick 6 and a touchdown just before the half. Brownwood scored with 3 minutes left and at the end of the game, but was somehow ruled short. Other than that it was bend don't break for Brownwood and a stout defense for Wylie.

Not as bad as attempted murder, but something similar happened up in Brownfield last year during basketball. He just happened to be the star player.

They have reached 20-0. Next game is across the border. Of course hoping for a win, but Toronto is really good this year. Outside of the Clippers game in LA and the Utah game on Monday, this might be the toughest looking game on paper so far this season.

Really. You have West Texas underneath your name and you pick Ryan. They should have been eliminated last Friday.

Brownwood vs. Wylie in the Oasis of West Texas. 

Brownwood vs. Wylie in the Oasis of West Texas. 

Better than any of the teams that have already lost in the playoffs.

Anyone has a chance come playoff time, but most likely not in this game. Celina beat Krum 69-14 during district. They say it is hard to beat a team twice, but not with that scoreline.

According to the reporter news, Sweetwater was unable to get the short passing game going. Krum ran the ball 50 times for over 200 yards along with 130 yards passing. Sweetwater's offense could only muster 58 yards running on 23 carries and 82 yards passing. The weather affected both teams, but more Sweetwater than Krum. It was brutal, started raining Thursday night and did not stop until yesterday afternoon.
