a 5 point win that A.J. gave to you guys on the 3 yard line, yeah that's a beatdown.


I'm using LSU logic (i.e. every win is a "beatdown") since this is an LSU site

It's a fair question, you guys went 8-4 last year with those offensive stars.



Look, I understand why a Bama fan might wish to pretend that last year's bowl season was just a bad dream, but the fact is those games really did happen, and they DO count towards a team's record. A&M went 9-4.

While y'all may well win, heat will not be a factor. Used to that.
not just the heat alone. just us keeping your defensive unit on the field for long stretches along with the humidity and first game hostile environment all lead to us winning time of possession which I believe is crucial for us to win..

Do people outside of Texas think we have Southern California type weather or something?

nope. the combination of first game in very hostile environment, us keeping your defense on the field coupled with the humidity and heat (yes even at night) and just winning time of possession is our key to winning I believe.

along with the humidity


Not going to matter.

On average, there are 209 sunny days per year in College Station, TX. The July high is around 95 degrees. The January low is 40. Our comfort index, which is based on humidity during the hot months, is a 22 out of 100, where higher is more comfortable. The US average on the comfort index is 44.

Your running game vs. our young defense, and home field advantage are factors that matter, otoh.

Do you think it becomes Siberia at night down here? I am so confused by this.

let me say again. the humidity in conjuncture with us keeping your defense on the field will result in us having a better chance to win at home. hell if you keep florida on the field all night their arse goes to draggin. same for us. we win the time of possession and I believe we pull it out at home.

At first I was like yeah, that is weird, but then I wondered if he actually thinks we're in the desert down here. Maybe he's thinking South and Southwest Texas.

Been to both pretty often in my travels during different seasons. Not much difference IMO. Frick SW Texas during June/July timeframe!

Dude...let it go. You're wrong here

If y'all win based on TOP, it will be because of that. Forget this in conjuction with bullshite you concocted. Heat/humidity will not be a factor for an Aggie team.

You have made it clear how ignorant you are, so there's that.

"It will be hot." "Yes, even at night."

The man said to Texans

If our team is better adjusted to the humidity than yours, and the South Carolina defense is going to be gassed in the 4th struggling to keep up with our up tempo offense, how exactly would the humidity play to your favor?
