Because of a COVID outbreak, Texas A&M is unable to play in the Gator Bowl, sources tell @SINow. Aggies don’t have enough available players.

Gator is searching for a replacement bowl team, sources say, but the only way that's possible is if another bowl is impacted.

Dang. The main draw of a bowl game is to get the younger players some playing time. That's out the window if this is correct - hope it's not.
Dumb as hell
Reason is very stupid.
But meh
But meh
At this rate we will have teams pulling out of games due to COVID forever.
COVID is here to stay regardless of what we do now whether we like it or not. Shutting things down and canceling things at this point is dumb.

Insert here *response 98% of TexAgs users want to say about covid but will get banned*
But what about the 12th man!?! Let's go!!!
I'd wait until something more official comes out before taking this as truth. It may very well be, but it's unnamed sources at this point.
Nah, it's really done. A&M is not going to play in a bowl game.EKUAg said:

What a massive disappointment.
Jimbo, I volunteer. Put together a 12 man Bowl team.
My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.0
Why? They will be negative by December 31. That's nearly a certainty. Unnecessary to just call it off like this.

Top of Football page now.
Wow.
Better safe than sorry.

Not enough players? I thought this was the HOME OF THE 12TH MAN
This feels like a blow to the 12th man thing.
Send that practice squad out there and let's take our lumps if that's what it means

Not enough players? Give me a break. Lamest crap ever.
I will play
Are any players actually sick, or did they just "test positive"?

Why hello there, fellow memer
There's no team to replace us in the SEC. 13/14 were eligible and got bids. The only team that didn't was Vandy at 2-10. Gator Bowl is going to be pissed the SEC cant provide a team that they contractually promised.
Surprising…but expected.
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)
Thanks Brandon.
If players hadn't opted out would A&M football be using this excuse to avoid the game.
So lame.
Glad i didnt buy tickets
You're assuming that no other teams have to pull out of their bowls. There are some bowl games in some very woke states and there are some very woke teams playing in bowls.TnAg23 said:
