I know we hate to lose the 8-4 moniker but sadly it's not going to hold up under Elmo. There's just no light at the end of the Aggie tunnel right now. No gold at the end of the rainbow. Elmo will make them worse, as his culture and coaching further settles in.

I will be curious to see if he gets year 3.

OK, tell us who we're losing to.

And for what it's worth - TexAgs agrees with me. At least today.

The roller coaster will start climbing again this Spring.

Imagine being in the SEC championship game and the CFP and you're more concerned about your rival's schedule and coach next year.

This is a terrible look and you need some therapy.

That said, I don't disgree. I think it's possible we lose every road game and might drop USC at home.

We don't want to do this. I called A&M's 8-4 finish back when y'all were 7-1.

Notre Dame, LSU, Texas, Florida, South Carolina, and either Mizzou or Arkansas

That's not for their yearly results.

We call them Texas 8&4 because that's their ceiling.

Can't tell if serious. Possibly still in Melt mode?

Losing to Florida at Kyle Field? Losing to Arkansas happens once a decade and next year won't be it. SCar's never beaten us at Kyle Field.

No, I'm serious. The competition of our away games next year is much better than USC and Auburn and we couldn't get it done on the road against them - why would I think anything will be different next year?

My goodness are you really still playing the Kyle Field card? I had to read it again. That is one thick skull you got there.

There is a direct correlation between percentage of your fanbase that is made up of sidewalk fans and the amount of shitposting from that fanbase on message boards

Dude, if we hadn't been at Kyle Field on Saturday, we would've lost 52-0.

Maybe the roller coaster this Spring will pick up your spirits.

Guaranteed losses:
@Notre Dame
@LSU
@Texas

Possible losses:
@Arkansas
@Missouri
Auburn
Florida
South Carolina

I'm not convinced you will get 60% out of the possible losses category

Possible, but 6-6 or worse is less likely than 7-5 or better.

Likely losses: at Texas, at LSU, at ND.

Possible losses: SC, UF, at Mizzou, at Arkansas.

Should win: Auburn, MSU, 3 cupcakes.

If they go 2-2 in the possible list that puts them at 7-5

So you credit the home crowd for a pick 6, blocked punt, and Ewers fumble?

I credit the home crowd for A&M not giving up and causing those miscues (which were caused, not given).

Absolutely. I never try to say "we beat ourselves", I always give the opposition credit.

But why is Ewers starting? Ok, so we did beat ourselves.
