Heat always helps the Ags.
I attended many a game in the late 1970's and the 1980's. Most of the time our seats were on the 1st deck between the 30 yd line and 50 (I was a BQ from 1977-1981) It showed in the 2nd half with heat related issues including cramps and exhaustion. Opposing players would come to the sidelines "beet red" receiving Gatorade, ice, and sitting in front of large electric fans. We would wipe our foreheads and faces with a towel and mock them and yell asking them, "Ya alright?". Teams from the west coast or northeast wilt in the second half every time.


I was there for Fresno State. It sure didnt help us that game when it went into triple overtime and our Ags couldn't do jack all game.

Went to the Nevada game last year I do not recall the kick time, but I'm pretty sure it was 11:00 (?) or 2:30.
Wore my white Columbia A&M shirt, tan shorts, and a Panama Stetson with large vented area around the crown. Sat midway up in the west stands, third deck. It was half way through the third quarter before any relief from the sun.
Really felt bad for all those 12th "Men" who wore maroon. I could see that maroon getting darker with perspiration as the game went on. I was very hot and sweaty in "white" with the high sky.
Did make my day tho was Daylon Mack's tackle of the QB & RB together on the play where he was unblocked.

Perfect opportunity to bust out my Columbia shirt and Chubbies shorts.
Don't forget your croakies for your sunglasses. You might run into a lake or something.
Those are just practical. If I have to walk inside somewhere, I can just let those babies hang.

2:30 PM is the premium time slot.

UCLA is practicing in temperatures < 80 degrees F with low humidity.

Those UCLA bassturds are gonna find out what "hostile environment" means as they melt down in the Texas sun!

The wrecking crew chant will be like thunder.
I'm in! Just killed a whole pitcher of Kool-aid. They will especially enjoy looking directly into the sun on the sideline as the game goes on.

Does anybody remember the song they used to play on The Zoo in DFW with the punchline "Lad I don't know where you've been, but I see you won first prize"?

There are threads every year about some perceived weather advantage for the Aggies.

We practice indoors. Heat is no advantage.

Last game I remember ucla playing in Texas in an early afternoon game they didnt look like the heat bothered them much.

They probably were tired after hanging 66 on the sips, though.

No. I've been to LA in August and will be out there again next week. A trip to LA in August is a nice break from the Texas heat.

Bruins will be dropping like flies starting in the 3rd quarter. Lots of them are going to be making business decisions. I believe we embarrass them.

I remember Jackies first game at Kyle in 1982. It was hot and to make it worse, we got whipped by BC who at the time had a QB named Flutie.

You nancy boys crying about the heat need to wash the sand out of your vaginas, Gold Bond the boys and quit being beetches. It's September in Texas - pretty much exactly the same every single year and shouldn't be a surprise.

Liquor up before the game, water during the game. Enjoy the college chicks wearing tank tops and short shorts.

Christ a-mighty, some of you live depressing lives.

I remember Sept 8th 2007 vs Fresno State (we won in OT). Several hundred fans taken into G. Rollie for heat exhaustion. It was after that game that fans were allowed to bring in a gallon of water each.
It was allowed during that game. I had my frozen gallon jug in the third deck for the "great migration".

Get you BMI under 25 or so and the heat won't beat you down.

My bad. Forgive me for checking the weekly weather forecast that shows their humidity being 10% higher than CS all week.

The humidity measurement that weather stations use is a relative number. 10% higher doesn't mean anything because the higher the temperature means the higher the amount of water that can remain as vapor. So 80% humidity at 102 degrees is a lot more water vapor in the air than 90% humidity at 85 degrees, for example.

When you schedule powerhouse football programs like PV A&M... you get 11am kickoffs.

So much for the hurry up. I predict a lot of Bruins going down with cramps in the second half. Some just when they need them to.

Yep. Cousin's wife had a heat stroke and had to be helped out by paramedics.

Wow you should give it a try. I can't even imagine that thought process.

I did. Never missed a home game from when I enrolled in 2000 through the 2014 season.

During that time, the following happened :
- In 2013, the TMF took away the parking pass I had with my season tickets since 2005 with no warning, and told me I didn't have enough priority points to get one when I inquired where it was when I received my season tickets (4 in the lower zone)
- All season tickets were sold out with the new Kyle when it was our turn to select seats for last season. Bought a ticket off of TA for the first game in the new Kyle and didn't make another
- Lost our RV spot that we had at Reed since 2008 after the 2014 season. My dad logged into the TS site to renew, and when he put his CC info into the site to purchase the tickets, it just timed out. He figured there were multiple people renewing and making it slow, so he checked back later that day and got the same thing. He tried again a day or two later, and same result. He then called and they told him it had gone through and even confirmed the address to mail them to. It apparently didn't go through and by the time he saw the email stating the renewal deadline was close, it had passed the day before. He called again and got the "tough ****" treatment. You'd think they'd give the benefit of the doubt or at least call on top of an email.**

My family and I have spent several thousands of dollars for Aggie Football and got nothing but "**** yous" on top of mostly ****ty football from the university. I'll gladly sit on the couch now and enjoy flipping between several games while drinking cold beer.

** Updated after confirming with my dad
