re: Worst football game you have been to.

Let's see

2008
Arky St - 18
A&M - 14

It really sucked knowing Sherman wasn't going to be the guy to really lead A&M from the mire right from the get go. This A&M team had multiple future NFL players on offense and could only muster 14 points in the first half. It was a look into the future of Mike Sherman play calling and it wasn't pretty.

A&M probably would have blown out Arky State if they had just played to their strengths and run the ball right at them but instead Sherman was determined to have a balanced offense which led to several sacks and picks from Steven McGee who hadn't been asked to pass near as much under previous coach Fran.


1994
SMU - 21
A&M - 21
(in San Antonio)

An undefeated season in a probation year was further marred by an inexplicable tie to a shitty SMU squad that had no business being in the game. Classic case of a team looking ahead (Texas was the next week) and not taking an opponent seriously.

The Alamo Dome also had awful acoustics in the upper deck at that time so all you could hear from the PA announcer the entire game was Charlie Brown adult speak "Waa waa waa was waaaaaaaa"


1990
Baylor - 20
A&M - 20

because frick Baylor.


2004 Cotton Bowl
Tennessee - 38
A&M - 7

I was already not to enamored with Fran due to the 77-0 embarrassment to OU the previous year but here is where I knew I wanted him gone. The team looked totally unprepared, Fran seemed to make zero adjustments throughout, and I had to hear Rocky Top 400 million times.

It did not help that the game was at 10am CST, I was hung over as hell, and had just learned Fran was getting a raise and an extension for a 7-4 regular season (w/first loss to Baylor since the 80s) that only ended in a Cotton Bowl b/c the Big 12 was down and the Cotton knew Aggies would travel better than an 8-3 Texas Tech who beat us or the 8-4 Big 12 North Champ Colorado who had just been thumped by OU in the Big 12 title game.


1998
A&M - 24
Texas - 26

I could have gone with RC's last game which was a 50-20 beat down in Austin but this one was so much worse. Going into the game A&M was ranked #6 and already the Big 12 South champs en route to playing then #2 Kansas State in the Big 12 Championship with an (extremely) outside shot at making the first BCS title game.

I had an extra ticket I couldn't unload so I gave it to one of my friends. His dad had gone to Texas but he wasn't much of a football fan. He didn't even know Ricky Williams was close to setting the rushing record. The whole ride down from Tyler to Austin he talked about how little he cared about football and how A&M was going to wreck Texas.

Instead, Texas was game and Ricky broke the rushing record even though he had gotten lucky and been ruled down on a fumble a couple plays before that would have pretty much ended the game. Texas won the game late and I had to ride back to Tyler that night with a person who was suddenly the biggest Longhorn fan around. He talked shite the ENTIRE ride back.
