re: Alabama and Georgia vs. Common Opponents this year

Sorry, but the "common opponents" comparison is absolutely useless. I'm glad you only posted the stats themselves and not any conclusions drawn from them.

Of course he will get offers. I imagine he will do his thing at A&M for at least a few seasons until they get really really good though.

Alabama's defense will comprise the first 11 picks of this year's draft.
Eligibility requirements be damned, this is frickING ALABAMA

re: aTm fans. What's the deal with calling UT the tsips?

Haha holy shite, I was responding to a pg. 1 post, but that is hilarious. I remember looking at an Alabama brochure when I was looking at colleges and at the time, there was some kind of automatic acceptance policy of if you had the equivalent of a 2.0 or 2.5 GPA. I thought that must be a mistake, but I swear that's what it said (this would have been around 2004-2005).
That's not to say that Bama doesn't put out some fine, intelligent people, but I will never forget just how unimpressive their requirements were, regardless of what ranking or statistics someone may come up with.

Thought it had something to do with WWII (or some other war) and a lot of Aggies going to war while the UT alums stayed at home and sipped tea.
There were something like 20K Aggie officers in WWII. Most by far of any academy/school outside the official military academies (Westpoint/AFA/Anapolis)

Oh, and :cheers: to the OP from me as well. Seems like I've been waiting all week to see a sensible, humble Bama post, but this place is just full of chest-beating douches

They are middle of the pack and will continue to be so. Bama and LSU will guarantee they lose 2 games a year. When Arky gets a coach that's another loss.
This shite is hilarious. Most obvious wishful thinking post I've seen on the Rant in a while. Guarantee? Every game we've lost this season we were up double-digits at some point. But this isn't Sherman. Sorry, LSU, but your time will come to an end sooner rather than later. :rotflmao: :doublebird: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

Just checking, but is the "sidewalk fan" definition the same as a t-shirt fan (e.g. MOST texas longhorn fans with their $10 walmart specials)? And if so why sidewalk fan?

He was injured on-and-off. It's not like we're replacing Acie Law or DeAndre Jordan

10. Texas A&M- Solid recruiting class for the Aggies, but will struggle in the SEC
Hmm, where have I heard THIS before? :rolleyes:
I will say, this team will be completely different from last year's, given transfers and new recruits (J-Mych baby!), so it's got to be hard to rank us in general.

Posted by Aggie Tex-pat on 11/9/12 at 11:20 am
Y'all are right. I confused the definition to think that Texas' population dilutes its significance in that ranking, though I do still stand by my statement that there aren't any values in that table to give any kind of context to the argument.

He's ranked in the top 5 of both of the ESPN draft guys' big board, so...

I'm saying our conditioning helps us off-set our lack of depth.
Ask anyone who watched us against Okie Lite last year and then again against La Tech-- it's a night and day difference from last year.

I don't know how many plays per game Alabama averages, but it doesn't compare to La Tech. I don't care what KIND of team or offense you are, if most of your starters are playing 100+ snaps straight without taking a break (obviously certain DBs are subbed in and out for diff situations) it doesn't matter.

I'm saying that ranking of states (which doesn't show any actual values, so for all we know there could be a .05% difference in Alabama and Texas) is going favor smaller, football-crazy states.
You wanna show me what percentage of Alabama's population plays which high school sports? And Texas? It's not the complete argument.
