Snowbowl 3.0. Last fall we saw Snowbowl 2.0. MSU wore their tighty whites with #snowbowl on the field.

It was embarrassing for all.

Fans - more supportive of A&M than I initially thought they would be. I figured smart SEC fans would get it and then did immediately. Thought the bumpkins wouldn't...but even the bumpkins seemed to put their ignorance aside after a few months and realize A&M/Missouri made the SEC a bigger, national conference. The SEC did it right. The B1G, after adding Nebraska (brilliant) added 2 awful programs in states that just dont care and wont bring viewers. SEC - A. B1G - C.

Football - best of college football. I followed the SEC on TBS on saturday nights back when I was in school (late 80's). Huge passionate crowds and exciting play. Tradition and passion are the keys. I always thought the SWC and the Big XII were no where near as exciting (save for first 5 years of Big XII when Nebraska, OU, A&M and Texas were strong.) And I wanted to join the SEC at the end of the SWC. I was almost ready to give up on A&M if it bypassed the SEC and am so glad that our school leaders had the courage to make the move.

Basketball - not that strong of a conference and yet it doesn't get as much respect as it deserves. It is the exact opposite from football with a built in bias that its teams just aren't that good or exciting.

Baseball - greatest conference going. We have to up our game in a big way.
Scoob be trolling. Exact same twisted logic I've seen a dozen or so times in past 3 months. Mostly from horn fans.

Leaving aside the fact that the SEC move was part of the reason we removed Sherm, which begat Manziel etc, isn't it obvious we weren't the same team over the past 2 months of the season than we were the first 2 months? Probably would have lost a game somewhere in the first half of the season even in the Big Xii.
Our fans invariably get ahead of ourselves when we see improvement. Start congratulating ourselves. We have a ways to go but we are definitely on the right track. We will see if we continue when everybody is trying to take us off our game.
