frick you for making me relive all of those games, Ball Gravy
Goddamn 2011 was painful. I'd almost rather get blown out every week than know how close we were to a 1 loss season

I'd counter that, with Mike Sherman, we were closer to a 7-loss season than a 1-loss season.
Case in point: Week 5 at Texas Tech.
Halftime score was 31-20 A&M. In the second half, we went into classic meltdown mode. In the third Quarter, Tech was driving and ready to kick a FG to cut the lead to 5 (they later scored a TD right afterwards) but special teams came through with Terrence Frederick returning a blocked FG 65 yards for the score. After Tech cut the lead to 45-40, I was certain that they would recover the onside kick and find a way to win, but we pulled it out.
The Baylor game was the only game in which we used the middle of the field (how do you think Swope tore them up so badly?)
