I approve of the FootVOLS schedule and it should be friendly to get the Heup train started.

So the average rank of our road/neutral opponents is 14th? That's incredible.

1. Arkansas (4)
I count 6 for the D1 poll.
Edit: Just realized that this is probably football. I thought it was for baseball.

Interesting. Does Alabama jump anyone if you replaced the Alabama game with playing yourself? (I.e. replace Arkansas vs. Bama with Arkansas vs. Arkansas and Bama vs. Bama)

Damn we are going to need a 50 gallon drum of lube.

If A&M can find a way to beat Alabama..........that path is wide open.

The trap has been set baws. Hard games at home, easy on the road.
You think Arnett turned down LSU because he thought he has a bad defense returning? Arnett's about to leverage this SEC championship year into a HC job.

Very favorable schedule for A&M. Is it Fall yet?
Posted on 5/11/21 at 1:00 pm to SummerOfGeorge
After some of these schedules we’ve played the last few years, I’m not remotely mad at having a soft one while breaking in a new offense.
