Seriously. Guys, we had our best season in almost 30 years.

It's fine. Get a grip.

The best season, and yet….

No. All is not lost. I do think the program did take a step forward this year.

But…. Still sucks man.

Fair. But this reaction is not ok.

We lost a game. We fought for it. We made mistakes. It doesn't mean we should throw our great team and coaching staff under the bus.

Get over it. We're going to the playoffs.

It's an ancient school mentality that t.u. is somehow an immediate and apparently the only relevant barometer for how to gauge success.
Extreme example, say we go 1-11, but that one win was t.u…..but dang, that's a good year boys!

And it's F'n idiotic. And needs to die.

Oh, I agree. As I said, I do think a solid step forward was made this year.

But this loss shows that step wasn't quite as big as some folks had hoped. And to have that point driven home by a rival is what absolutely sucks.

But hey. Season isn't over. Ags will have a shot in the playoffs. The Ags are still a good football team.

Can't agree more. By making Texas such a giant in the minds of Aggies…. They become giants.

Some of the most cogent thoughts that have been said tonight.

Hopefully everyone else can get on this level.

We have a hell of a team and still could have won late in the fourth quarter. But it didn't work out. Who cares!

Same amount of games to the national championship just a different route.

Disagree. This was literally the only "can't lose" game of the season…and we **** the bed

We haven't beaten sip in like 5,000 days and I don't care how many Mississippi States and Auburns we beat until that becomes a reality

and my question to you is how is it not justified?

This is what BAS dreams are made of.

Justified?

Myself I have never been a fan of playing the victim. Life is too short.

Losing to South Carolina is BAS perfect scenario but it did not occur. This is losing to our rival. Even non BAS Ags don't like it but we are able to have perspective.

We just played the best team on on our schedule let's be thankful we had a easy schedule this year and enjoy the playoffs.

Notre Dame is better than Texas. That's easy to see.

it's not victimhood. You know that.

It's just that every time the Ags have been on the door step of something great, they have blown it. For decades. Mix that with how much buy in is required to be an Aggie, and you are set up with a lot of disappointment.

Is it all over this season? No. Of course not. Playoffs are a big deal. And the Ags did take a step forward this season. But still.

A loss is one thing, getting out coached with 2 weeks to prepare is what people are mad at.

Klein (again) called a ****ty game
Elko played scared instead of attacking arch in the second half

That's what most people I've found are mad at lol

I haven't lost any of the faith I have in this team because their performance last night was nothing new.

Klein is a suspect OC, and even when he's calling a good game, Reed's passing decisions and accuracy can be great or garbage.

Also, teams have broken off big runs against A&M this year, but they've also been shut down.

In short, A&M has the talent to beat any team and the inconsistency to lose to most of them, too.

It doesn't have anything to do with measuring success. It's hatred. The whole season is ruined.

That loss cost us Atlanta and gave the committee the excuse they've been waiting for to knock us down to a 9 or 10 seed. And the way we've playing lately were a one and done in the playoff

So yeah that game mattered a whole lot and as always we couldn't handle being at the big boy table with real stakes

Ah yes, the moral high horse thread posted at 3am has been rare this season since the Ags were 11-0 before Austin.

People that have the gumption to be so high and mighty in the face of such adversity should be applauded.

Another year without a conference championship. Of course sip was the one to knock us out of playing for it. 1998 was a long ****ing time ago.

Lost to sip.

Season is ruined.

Would you rather be 9-3, having beat your rival and headed to a meaningless bowl game or 11-1, having lost to your rival and playoff bound? Those are the realities of 2 teams right now. Choose wisely.

The majority of reasonable Ags and Aggie fans feel this way.

But you're in the zoo.

Wow, over 5000 whole days?? Whatever will we do??
Oh wait, you know we didn't play at all for like 12+ years, right?

They've won the last 3 matchups. Don't overreact.

Oh no, I almost forgot….we haven't beaten App State EVER!
