Always interesting when it happens. But honestly - how do you penalize teams/players who are trained to win - when they lose to win?

wow... that really sucks. I can't imagine having to tell your players to lose the game or for the players, to actually play to lose!

Curious to know how the referee stopped the game on both plays. What was the flag or the penalty?

Started a thread last year that A&M should have intentionally lost the game to Alabama. Had we not used all our turbos in that game I'm convinced we probably could have one a few more games towards the end of the season. Thread was promptly deleted.

You mean vs unintentionally losing it like we did?

What was the point of playing to lose? It was going to be a loss either way.

He's saying, too much effort went into a game that we would've lost regardless. Save some of that for the last half of the season.

Honestly, the R-KANSAS, game did us in. Goal line stop after goal line stop

Maybe we should pull a popavich and just play the b-teamers against bama, lsu, ole miss, and miss st. We really need to get to 9-4.
