The beginning was the 77-0 game. Haven't been the same since.

1939.

If a dog's eternal spirit is stuck where he is buried, then that truly sucks for canines. Pretty sure a concrete, glass and metal structure didn't jinx us.

SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH YES

The curse was not caused by the construction of the Zone; it was caused by moving Bonfire off-campus. The curse will continue until some form of Bonfire is again built on campus.

Too soon?

I still think a tsip or tceh tard paid a witch to curse us right around the turn of the millenia.

The source of COVID is animal related. The souls of all the former Revs caused it...........

You waited 15 months to say that?

WE'VE ALL GONE MAD!!!

Nah, just a friendly bump/reminder that the curse exists when a situation arises that prevents us from winning a natty :/
(I.e. covid will cancel our chances this season...)

Obligatory bump

Pink building gone when we should have at least built 1 of the boards into the new building now on the opposite side of the field. TV never built in front of Revs showing the game cause can't hurt ticket sales. Does a cadet from echo still update a portable chalk board with the score on it anymore?

I support full superstition posts entering the board. Walton loads.

On Bama's drive after the onside kick….the 3rd down pass for Bama hovered long enough for their receiver to catch it without his knee down to get the first down and seal the game. That doesn't just happen without supernatural forces. The Revs just won't let it go…..

It's a bold move to desecrate Rev's graves while camping out for t.u. tickets. Surely last night had nothing to do with that…

How the Hell long are these dogs gonna stay mad?

That is what has plagued us all these years and created mediocre football.

Ever since "The Zone" was built and blocked the view of all the deceased Reveilles (RIP), we have been in the tank.

Think about it.... it was completed in '99, the year after our last conference championship. THAT'S WHEN WE BASICALLY PISSED ON THEIR GRAVES, SO THEY RETURNED THE FAVOR.

There is one obvious solution here. Tear it down and give the first ladies of Aggieland what is rightfully theirs. OR take one of the foundation suites and turn it into a Reveille cemetary....either option works.

There are cosmic forces at work here, boys.

But it was constructed in '98 blocking their view and we won the Big XII. Also, I remember a dismal 95 and 96 season prior to the construction.

You're reaching. If anything, Kyle Field was built on an Indian Burial ground.

I think we can all agree this has infiltrated the entire athletic department.

It's the bevel. Introduced in '99.
Football hasn't won squat since.

Ditch the hideous bevel and end the curse!!!

We built the zone, introduced the bevel, went to maroon facemasks forsaking the white, lost on campus bonfire .... all in that year or two time frame. We messed with the mojo and the football gods are messing with us since. They give us hope from time to time only to crush us with their vengeance.

TEAR IT DOWN

Yes, tear it down! tear it down! tear it down!

Also, bring back the monochrome scoreboard and fire the DJ.

We aren't cursed. We just have ****ty leadership in the athletic department

The REAL reason for the curse- see bottom of post.

It's NOT the relocating of the dogs. As pointed out, we have been cursed for decades. We won the National Championship in 1939 under Reveille. Reveille died in 1944. Reveille was a mixed breed (she's too dignified to call a "mutt".)

We replaced her in 1952 with a Sheltie Collie and after that with Rough Collies.


Until we return the respect due to our original Reville and use a mixed breed (preferably one from a local shelter and of uncertain pedigree), we will continue to be cursed. Forget the seeing dead dogs, it's our original Ms. Reveille that's pulling the strings here. Get a mutt- get a trophy.

This board used to be so much more fun.

I think it has to do with mediocre coaching

Get the revs remains, cremate them all and scatter their dust under the midfield turf !
That'll fix everything.......

But is Dog real?

The only way to break the curse is to get maroon water coolers

Most of those remains and boxes were disintegrated and the construction crews ceremoniously moved dirt pretending it was remains. They couldn't find some of those bodies. Revs revenge looms large.

Agree!!! Why should a bottle nosed mutt make a difference??!!

"Sheltie Collie " Try Shetland Shepard!

Agree, get one from the shelter, stop using these bottle nose mutts!
