Bowl Games
my Texas A&M Aggies play Georgia in the Independence Bowl in a few days. unfortunately i'm pretty jazzed about it. i say "unfortunately" because it seems like every Aggie game that i think could be a turn-the-corner/gain momentum type game...we get not only beat but blown out/totally embarrassed on tv.
please, please, please prove me wrong, Ags. i'm beggin' ya.
to add insult to injury, the t-sips (t.u., texas wronghorns) lucked into the national championship game with Bama by hitting a 49 yd FG in the Big 12 Championship game vs Nebraska after time had expired... buuuuut the refs put time back on the clock after reviewing film...which of course was illegal b/c that is not a reviewable play. if you read the rules, its not like basketball where you can look at the clock to see how much time is left. there is a very unique & specific set of instances in which a play can be reviewed, and "checking to see if there is time left on the clock" is not one of them.
so yeah. ROLL TIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!

kept it a close game on offense & defense, no joke. but had an utter special teams meltdown: KOR for TD, blocked punt to set up another TD, missed FG, *blocked* FG, and snap-over-punter's-head to set up yet another TD. gave GA 24 points. feel decent about our team heading into next year...but obviously do not feel good about special teams...
