You aren't going to win 10-11 with JFF so no.

LOL no.

Your defense wasn't that great.


They kept us in the game against UF and LSU, and outright won our contests against Bama and Ole Miss. Stoned OU in the bowl game.

Only bad game was against LATech (who has a helluva offense), and we were playing shorthanded that game, too.

Well if your defense is so great how come La Tech torched it? The teams philosophy was to simply try and outscore teams and hope for a stop or two. Dude Ole Miss had you beat but choked it away

Fla - below average offense
LSU - mediocre offense

Already addressed this. And don't put words in my mouth--I'm not saying last year's defense was a straight up Wrecking Crew or anything, but they did work and played WELL over their heads, giving us a chance to win nearly every game we played.

Well, we have a great offense. Of course we're trying to outscore teams. Not sure what that assertion really proves.

JFF and the offense fricked up bad that game. 6 turnovers total, but came up with a timely comeback.

Defense still had to WIN that game, though. If OM gets that 4th down run, JFF doesn't get a chance to throw the game winning pass. And even after that TD, our defense came up with the INT to seal the game.

Again, not saying A&M was an all-world defense or anything, but there's no way you can objectively say they weren't good last year.

Defense was good enough to scare Saban away from running the ball on the final Bama drive of the game from the 5

Nuss made the call, not Saban. He was being too damned cute and I guarantee if he didn't start running the ball in the SECCG his arse would be gone, just like Applewhite

Wasn't the entirety of Texas A&M's defense drafted 81st overall?

Wouldnt have mattered...if Bama had run they would have either fumbled or gotten stuffed again.

Well usually when we were down there we used the package with Jessie so I'm pretty sure we could have gotten 4 yards on 4 attempts

LOL no.

Sorry bro. Only reason y'all were down there to begin with was the passing game. Y'all weren't doing diddly on the ground late in the 4th.

Now, diss the Aggie D again
