had a decent time BUT...paid too much $ to sit in the worst possible seats 40 yards past the endzone to watch a TV screen. I hope y'all take the extra $40 y'all charged LSU for those tickets and renovate that crappy stadium. Also, very Gay. I've never seen a fan base whine and be so butt hurt in my life. Y'all better get some thicker skin if you guys are going to stay in the SEC. Example: Standing outside the corner bar in northgate an Aggie comes at us calling us "A&M rejects," we answered by calling him a "UT reject" and it was if we slapped his mother and he had no reply other than to prove his hatred for UT and Austin. Why are you guys so sensitive about UT??? Campus was top notch, majority of your fan base were soo classy it was shocking, college station was very nice, and over all a decent road trip. IDGAF about the cadets, 12th man, or yell leaders...very traditional but in fact Gay. We did make it a point to say it infront of several cadets and Aggie fans....had one response and it was from an old man who wanted to take on the entire student section, everyone else just put their heads down and walked off. Very classy organization, just night and day from others in the SEC.
Thankfully, you are not a representative sample of the LSU fans I encountered. Perhaps the high cutoff for tickets through LSU screened out some of the riff raff.

As to the view, those seats will probably be gone the next time LSU comes to College Station, although we will be in the midst of a three year, messy renovation and expansion project that will pose its own challenges.

Glad that most folks seemed to have a good time. Have to remember that it's just a game, and the fans are the ones taking bone crushing hits (or shouldn't be, anyway).

You mean the Mickey Mouse offense that gained more yards than anyone all year on LSU? That Mickey Mouse offense?

Football smack should never include "Education Quality" in the discussion.

Besides the generalization of US News is not the end-all for "education quality".

We did not beat Florida or LSU, but I think it is incorrect to say that we can't move the ball against your defenses. Clearly we can - we just need to not allow you to force us to make mistakes and make easy FGs.

But to say it can't be done with the type of offense we have is really inaccurate.

Your offense made it past LSU's 35 once from 7:25 in the Second Quarter until the end of the game.

How about Forbes which listed A&M as the #2 school in the nation that companies want to recruit from... US News or no, no one believes that LSU is a better school.

Regardless, it was weak smack to bring up but at the same time it obviously succeeded in it's purpose or else you would have just written it off.

Exactly like that, except this offense gained more yards, left at least 7 points on the field, turned the ball over 4 times, and lost by 5.

What does that have to do with a damn thing? You're saying our type of offense can't move against SEC defenses...I'd beg to differ. We have some issues to work on, for sure, but I'm not worried about lack of yards. We need to limit mistakes and work on our kicking game.

But go ahead, change the subject.

Nearly every LSU poster prior to the game said that Mingo, Montgomery and crew would knock Manziel out of the game before half, I'm still looking to see where he even got a hard hit put on him.

FWIW, I can't stand how generalizations are made about 30,000 to 50,000 people.

I've been more than successful in my career and I have my LSU A&M education to thank for that. FWIW, I do a lot of work with companies out of Houston and they hire primarily from LSU and A&M. They have no complaints from either.

It was an example of how "lame" the smack talk was all day. Had he walked up to me and truly talked trash I wouldn't have even mentioned it here.

I'm sure y'all are, and I'm not trying to claim any sort of bullshite moral victory here. Just straightening out the fact that we didn't get beat by multiple scores and just hang our hat on the yardage claim.
