Would if the aggies lose to Duke

[johnabeard]

After sumlins first season of 11-2 the aggies fell to 8-4 this year with one of the worst defenses on record. Would if they lose to the duke blue devils in their bowl game.

Do you thinkg heads would roll, me personally would have joke material for the next 5 years.

 

[BigYasTX09]

It would be funny, but it's not going to happen. I don't see Duke stopping them.

 

[johnabeard]

duke is no joke a well coached veteran team, and manziel will be more focused on going pro.

A longhorn can dream right.

Hey, it's possible.

 

[SFlonghorngirl]

Possible. Bowl games are meaningless unless you're playing for the MNC. Favorites usually play down against lesser opponents during bowl season.

for fans bowl games are bragging rights for our conference every year. Big12 hasn't been impressive this year but with bowl games it can help show how tough the big 12 can be.

Have you looked at the slate? It does not bode well for the Big 12.

What matters though is that aggy will win halftime. No doubt. Whooop!

 

[Pancho Negro]

Duke will be way more hyped for this game than Texas Agricultural & Mechanical University.

After Patterson signs our next HC, his next agenda should be finding Texas a new home. I'm not a fan of the Big 12. Would love to join the ACC or Pac 12.

I'm a fan of college football in general. I don't root for teams in one conference over another. I enjoy quality matchups and root for schools similar to that of Texas (UCLA, Michigan, UNC).

what im hearing is there will be four mega conferences of 16 teams eventually the big 12 and acc will combine to be one conference

That would be cool and would be fun to watch those matchups.

 

[TheContractor]

Completely agree with SFlonghorngirl.

Johnabeard, where do you hear this. I hope you are right. A while back the rumor was 4, 20 team leagues. Either 16 or 20 would work for me. Also, departing from the jackA$$es knows as the NCAA would be a great thing also.

Also, what do you mean by heads rolling? Someone getting fired? I don't think that would happen, maybe someone on defensive staff if it does. Nothing to Sumiln.

You'll never hear me chanting "Big12, Big12, Big12" like these SEC morons. Sorry, not gonna happen. Bragging rights for a conference? Since when do we buy into that collectivist mentality? We're Texas.

 

[bbdude]

Don't see aggy losing this one unfortunately but Duke will definitely put up some points on them.

 

[BrokenGlassRepublucan]

I heard at a party last night that Sumlin was the best coach in the country, by a mile.

 

[Orgblood]

I really don't understand this mental aspect of not supporting the other teams in the conference. A clinical condition of me

I don't think and never will think of THEM ($ec) as morons for support of each other. And yes it grinds me to no end hearing their chant. The only other sound that grinds me is sooooeee pig. But if you do really want to understand why a lot of

People HATE Texas ist the simpleton thinking of me me me and f u were Texas. Not a good example of who we are.

I believe we lead the way in many aspects and we should lead by example. The big12 is a community. Jus as the the old SWC

We were a community and proud of it. This me crap is not being a team or community. I guess I'm old school and will

Continue to support all from this conference. Lead by example. As yes then and only then, are We Texas.

 

[Randolph Duke]

Why? What advantage is there in having an 8 team division over the old 8 team conference structure? You could go to 4 team pods, but it still means you would play certain teams in your conference only once every 8 years. In that structure, why even bother to say they are in your conference? You could play them OOC more often.

Also, a 16 team conferences could be what happens, but what ahout the other 60 or so other FBC teams? What structure do they have to also play for the national title? Not letting them in is a non-starter because they would immediatyely sue under anti-trust statutes. You can't collude against those schools to prevent them from opportunities the other 64 teams would have.

I'd preface that comment that as long as Manziel plays, its tough to see aggy losing. There are some aggys who don't think Manziel is playing in the bowl game.

 

[Lord Vader]

Few thoughts:

I think you'll see four conferences of 16 teams, maybe 18. There are going to be some requirements to be in this breakaway group, things that will keep a school like Texas State out, but would allow a school like UTSA in one day.

The Aggies will not lose to the Duke Blue Devlis, but it is going to be a high scoring game, probably something like 52-34 flying Manziels. Duke did not have an answer for Jameis Winston, and they wont have one for Johnny Manziel or Mike Evans.

I expect someone is getting fired or severely reigned in on Sumlin's staff after this season of awful defense.
