I'd like to believe the cramping was legit, but if you check out T.O.P. the A&M defense was out on the field much more than the Florida D in the 2nd half. It was the same temperature for both teams. You'd think the A&M defense would be the ones cramping up considering our offense wasn't on the field much the 2nd half.
When we did start to make some plays the cramps happened. Unfortunately it looks suspect.
And for some added perspective Aggie fans are touchy on the subject because our players had been accused of the same thing last year.
One of those players was Von Miller during the Baylor game. Why would we have our best defensive player cramp up and miss a play? We wouldn't. That's ridiculous. Players cramp up sometimes because it's freakin' blazing hot and they're putting extreme wear on their muscles in 5-6 second bursts.
That said, I didn't boo any of the Florida players yesterday and I was disappointed that some of our fans did.
In response to the OP - I thought the 12th Man was pretty good. I wish it'd been a night game - there's just more energy. I know the heat and yelling made me woozy a few times. Having 40,000 at Midnight Yell was impressive. And Florida fans showed up in a big way - and made a fair amount of noise up at the top of the Zone too.

You're thinking of the OU game.
