I've seen this troll on this board. Do yall really think this is the best A&M team ever? If so, to what do your attribute the relative success of this year's team? Great QB play? One on or two great stars? Is it Jimbo?

Honest question because I don't know A&M history well due to the different conferences.....how would you rank A&M's 10 best teams?

Unfair homefield advantage due to not correctly enforcing covid guidelines.

I hope killing all those innocent people was worth coming up short again.

By what standard? Season-long, or play at the end?

No one really knows their history. A&M has worked very hard since joining the conference to hide it from everyone.

You returned a lot of production in a year in which was that was even more valuable than it normally is.

Most of the rest of the West was replacing production and/or was changing coaches in a year where that hurt even more than it normally does.

I mean you have 2 teams that have ever ranked higher. To deny that this is at the very least one of the best seasons in your program history is denial of fact.

A&M is a mediocre program. But their fans think they are blue blood elites. It’s hysterical

That's the primary reason Slocum was fired...his 3-8 bowl record.

1991 was #5 going into the Cotton Bowl
1992 was #4 going into the Cotton Bowl
1993 was #7 going into the Cotton Bowl
1998 was #8 going into the Sugar Bowl

1992 would have finished at worst 3rd with a win and maybe even 2nd the way Miami got blown out.

2020 A&M would beat 1939 A&M by about 350.

Beat Tulane in the Sugar Bowl. I'm an LSU fan but I have the program from that game. My dad was on the Tulane team then, but was a freshman so he didn't get to play..

Honesty question. After this game are aggy fans ready for life after Mond or are y’all hoping for a return? I remember y’all being kind of pumped for the next in line last year
