re: Who here was at the Hurricane Rita Game 10 years ago?

I wasnt at that game (I was only a junior in HS) but I was at the Baylor game that year. 11 AM, miserably hot and Chad Schroeder bailed us out with a miracle 4th down catch on our game tieing drive. We won on a Courtney Lewis OT TD but nobody left happy

Baylor also fumbled inside our ten yard line like three times otherwise they would have blown us out.

Frick dude. I thought you were older than me. I was a SR in college that year.

That year of Aggie FB was so frustrating. Clemson's FG kicker, blown the hell out by Tech, Iowa State, and Colorado, Courtney Lewis fading into Bolivia, and McGee's surge of almost hope at the end of the year.

Followed up with a Texas MNC.

I was there!

After the game, I was waiting for my roommate in front of this Animal House looking frat house that we stayed in (a friend of a friend was a member) which was directly across the road from the field that all their tailgates are in and right up the road from that gas station bar of theirs (Esso Club?) when this faaaaaaaaaat arse Clemson female fan says "aww are you sad because you lost?" To which I responded "are you sad because you are fat?" That's simultaneously the meanest and best instanly reply I've ever said to someone's face. But frick her, she asked for it.

That was a fun trip though. I recommend making that road trip when we get it again.

Back in that day, before they expanded the student body of A&M to 1,000,000 people, our women were smarter but homlier. The Clemson chicks were KNOCKOUTS and severely retarded, which is perfection when you are a guy that age. I hooked up with a girl who was still the hottest woman I've ever seen in a pizza place that turned into a bar after dark. She asked me where I was from and I yelled "Houston" over the music. She said "Hilton Head?! Me toooo!" and hugged me. I was in like Flynn at that point, it progressed naturally from there throughout the night with her as the aggressor but that's the true story of all I did initially to pick her up, tell her I was from Houston and just go with it when she thought I said Hilton Head.

The only thing I remember about that weekend is Katrina and Jad Dean.

I'm probably exaggerating the "near loss-ness" of it, to be honest. I looked it up and we won by 8, so it wasn't quite two touchdowns, but I think you are correct in that we played terrible and they paced us, but we never lost the lead or let them closer than the final score.

44-31=8?
