HOLY HELL A&M and LSU are so gay for each other. You guys can't be a rivalry if you are constantly gagging on each others cock

Had T. Wilson or Knile Davis lived up to their Heisman expectations, I'm sure they'd be getting the same respect.

Because God knows many of the Bama players on that dynasty roster will be too busy touring Atl. Not many of them are used to playing there.

I don't understand why we're supposed to hate Johnny Football.

We beat him.

Give him the heisman. Dude's earned it.

Aggies still suck.

The world keeps turning.

Sam is awesome! Great player and person.

Give him credit but he's learned from Miles. Always respects opponents and takes the few losses he has like a man. Doesn't get all and tries to blame the media like other coaches of less character.

JFF is a great player he's earned the respect also. We haven't heard his voice but my guess is he handles himself well on the field also and class acts like Sonic Sam can appreciate that.

Sam is a class guy. He's also honoring Marcus Lattimore by putting "21" on his arm. I hate that his brother (the original "Sonic") got killed in Columbia. (He was a good guy, working as a bouncer at a bar, and got shot by a customer that he had thrown out.) Otherwise, he would have most likely come to SC w/ some of his close high school teammates. But he said he wanted to stay away from Columbia because it reminded him of his brother.

I didn't know that about him. I've got a ton of siblings, and I know it'd kill me to lose even one of them. Don't blame him for wanting to get away.

Dude's earned my respect for far more than being a kickass defender on the gridiron

He's a good representative for the football program and university. College football needs more players with his personality.

someone asked les a question about manziel on monday at his luncheon and you could see him perk up. he obviously earned their respect. manziel is entertaining as frick to watch. that said, he is an aggie so i hope he premature ejaculates the next time he is engaging in coitus with his girlfriend or slips in front of a crowd of people or something like that.

Not a flame here, but Manziel's worst performance this year was against LSU, right? Outside of the 1st quarter, we pretty much shut him down. Is this why he's getting so much respect from LSU? Talking Manziel up subliminally promotes the LSU D for stopping him. If he would have went Cam Newton on us would we still be so vocal about supporting him? If LSU would have lost the game does LSU still publicly state all this stuff?

I'm inclined to just trust the guy that spent 60 minutes chasing Manziel around the field.

I can understand, in Texas it is all about Texas football, you aren't playing real football unless it's texas's. Over here if we play big boy football we acknowledge it then give you some flak but we appreciate the rivalry mores. People at OU and UT are more stuck up then the people over here.

And preseason #1 usc and their beloved knees on the floor media will have lots of free time watching UCLA in the Pac 12 Title game; while the mighty Chokejans start dealing with their lack of depth next year.

+1. Manziel had A&M up 12-0 in the first quarter.
Even though LSU came back and led 24-12 in the fourth, Manziel never gave up and got it to within 24-19. I consider it fortunate that he didn't have more time.
