$3M payout (Texas Bowl) vs $1.5M (Liberty)

Aggie gonna Aggie.

Doesn't the SEC share TV and bowl revenue equally?

If so, it doesn't matter where aggie goes. But, yes, aggie gonna aggie.

You're probably right. Unsure how revenue is split in SEC. Maybe different for each conference? Yes, Aggie gonna Aggie.

Not to be the spelling police but isn't it "aggy"?

I believe they split the revenue equally in the SEC but the aggys still screwed themselves by going to a bowl that will bring in less revenue.

Not if you're a FOB.

Guess I'm behind on the lingo, what is a FOB?

I had the same question the other day and asked SFLG. She informed me that it meant "Fresh Off The Boat."  I had never heard of this acronym.  I only knew that FOB in my industry means "Freight on Board." 

How this came up was in a conversation with her about the name of this contestant on Jeopardy.  I was laughing when I sent it to her, and she said, "Oh, she's probably FOB.  There are all kinds of weird names."  I'm assuming she's referring to Mariusz.

No, aggies refer to themselves singularly as, "I'm an aggie".

IMO, using "aggy" makes us look like the aggies who refer to The University as "t.u." and our students as "t-sips". Furthermore, I think spelling it with 'ie' looks more effeminate - just right for aggie.

Speaking of the ags, found this humorous:

That's good news. For a moment there, I thought it meant Friend of Bevo.

Ag = 1.5 > 3

I know some of you were not even alive during the SWC so may have never heard this

If you are going to the game, you will quickly grow to hate it

Aggy is going to wish they had chosen UT in the Texas Bowl - WVA is going to hang 50 points on that Whacking Crew Defense.

As for UT vs. piggy - just like it has been all season, so goes Swoopes (especially passing) so goes the success of the Offense.  Piggy will stack the box and dare Swoopes to beat them with his arm.

As a side, I attended the last game vs. arky in Austin back in 2008 - Colt lead a complete 52-10 thrashing and then piggly-wiggly turned around and canceled the 2009 game vs. UT because they didn't want another beatdown in FayetteNam.

Hook 'Em!
