Fran almost lost to Texas State!
Short side option!
Yemi hadn't yet been busted for aggravated robbery.
We've come a long way, baby.
Was a fun weekend in Aggieland though! Many, many hurricane/ritas were consumed. My girlfriend at the time was a lot of fun. Those were the days.

I was there. Moved from my seats to 50 yard line seats on the first deck because it was so empty.

Was that the game Yemi Babalola suplexed an opposing player and almost got ejected?

I remember two things about that game: (1) Thursday night, and (2) Dr. Gates telling all non-B/CS folks to stay home.
The fact that Franchione doesn't immediately come to mind is a good sign.
I'll have to share this progress with my therapist.

That shite was awful. Their dual threat QB ran all over us in an empty stadium. The broadcast was depressing too.

I was listening on the radio as I moved cattle out SE Texas up to the B/CS and Rockdale areas.

I remember that one. Got moved to like a Thursday night game or something and there was nobody in the stands right? Reggie's SR year?
If I remember correctly, the next game we almost lost to Baylor?

The crazy thing about Yemi is that his family is (I think) Nigerian upper class and his dad is a professor or something. So he's actually not a hoodrat, just somehow got caught up in The Life... not unlike some of the kids I grew up with.

The only better parties were the night the power plant went down and the whole Brazos Valley was without power until 3 AM.
In today's parlance they said it got turnt up, but back then we called it crunk.

Yes it was! There's still a Youtube clip of it:

It's also the night Fran was caught on camera eating Little Debbies while SWT was about to tie us.

The Fran Era:
Can't believe it was a decade ago.

Is it classless and inappropriate for me to post this photo:
Is that ban-worthy?

I remember this game well, or about as well as I can remember a game from the Fran era. From the weird weather to the thousands of empty seats, I probably never will experience such a game again. You had your pick of any seat in Kyle Field. I split my time between sitting on the 50 yard line and the Zone.
Why A&M decided to play this game was beyond me.
Later on, my apartment became an evacuation center of sorts for various members of my extended family.
