Do conference champ OU*, division champ Duke, and WVU count?


This is why people can't stand Aggie fans. In your rebuttal to someone saying most of your wins you're so excited about have actually been against a non 5 power conference team (which is true by the way. It's a fact. Not an opinion) you beat your chest and throw out that time you beat Duke in a meaningless bowl game. The same bowl game that you allowed Duke to score 48 points, rack up 661 yards, and needed a miraculous 4th quarter comeback to get the aforementioned victory you are boasting about.

While we are on the subject, 8 of Myles Garrett's 11.5 sacks last year came against Lamar, Rice, and UL-Monroe. But he's sooooo good and Chavis will make him sooooo much better Chavis likes to attack even though he actually doesn't. Good luck on third downs

ETA - I forgot West Virginia's senior starting QB Clint Trickett didn't play the other game you are boasting about winning b/c of a concussion. Jesus Christ

Meh, a win is a win. The Duke game was fun to watch.

That game was less fun to watch. Still a win though.

The truth is that we have done better than 90% of people here thought we would in 2011. Mizzou has done better than 99% of what people thought. They get bashed for losing in championship games, we get blasted for getting wins in cupcake games. Either way though we are both ahead of schedule.

Not really. 13-11 in SEC play isn't exactly impressive.

You weren't even a member then. I was here before our first season and I saw it with my own eyes. People were predicting we would pull a Bert, aka lose all our SEC games the first year and maybe win one or two the second year. Those who were more optimistic about our chances still predicted a losing season or two early on.

Not only have we not been stuck at the bottom of the SEC West as predicted but we have won some bigger games. I am not saying we did awesome, but we certainly have done better than predicted.

I can't deny that. We were too focused on stealing Arky's rivalry game.

Especially since their 2012 team lost to the legendary combination of Driskel and Muschamp at home.
