Win a road game against a ranked opponent. Saw on twitter he hasn't done it since 2016, and sure enough they were right. What are the odds he breaks that streak this year with

Not looking good. Tennessee is probably our best chance

I think he wins 1 or 2 of these.

The difference between a 9-3 and 8-4 season imo

If he wins one of those three I hope it's against LSU because that will be the only away game I will be able to make!

Also, he needs to put a date on this.

Wow. Step back and think about that for a moment.

We have a head coach that hasn't won a road game in 2 years, and hasn't won a road game against a ranked opponent in 7 YEARS, spanning 2 different schools in 2 separate leagues.

If we lose all 3 road games, we will carry a 10-game road losing streak into next year. We have not won a road game since a 35-14 win at Missouri on 10/16/2021 and have not won a road game against an SEC West team since a 31-20 win at Auburn on 12/5/2020. If we lose to both Ole Miss and LSU, we will have a 7-game losing streak against SEC West teams before the SEC eliminates divisions next year. Then, we will have to wait until road games at Auburn and Mississippi State next year to win a road game against an SEC West team.

According to ESPN FPI, we have a 43.3% of winning at Tennessee, but there are several trends stacked against us.

1. We are coming off a grueling home loss to Alabama and traveling to play a well-rested Tennessee team coming off a bye week.

2. Tennessee will be playing their 3rd home game in 4 weeks with a bye week in between and has not played a road game since a 29-16 loss at Florida on 9/16. In fact, that was the only true road game that Tennessee has played so far this season.

3. Tennessee will be looking to snap a 2-game losing streak to us since we joined the SEC and avenge a 34-13 beatdown that we handed them in Knoxville on 12/19/2020.

4. Tennessee has won 12 (6 SEC) consecutive home games since a 41-17 loss to Georgia on 11/13/2021.

5. We have lost 7 (6 SECi) consecutive true road games since a 35-14 win at Missouri on 10/16/2021.

On the flip side, Jimbo Fisher is 4-1 in games after Alabama.

2018: @Alabama (L): 23-45 | (N) Arkansas (W): 24-17
2019: Alabama (L): 28-47 | @Ole Miss (W): 24-17
2020: @Alabama (L): 24-52 | Florida (W): 41-38
2021: Alabama (W): 41-38 | @Missouri (W): 35-14
2022: @Alabama (L): 20-24 |Bye week | @South Carolina (L): 24-30
2023: Alabama (L): 20-26 | @Tennessee (TBD)

Forget ranked teams - has Jimbo even won a road game against a team that finished the year with a winning record? Serious question.

Found my answer - he's done it twice.

2018 - beat South Carolina 26-23…Gamecocks finished 7-6 on the year.

2020 - during Covid, beat Auburn 31-20…Tigers finished 6-5 that season.

That's it. That's the list.

This is a good question. Someone thought this was a good idea.

Correct - John Sharp presented this to Jimbo. Whether it was his idea or one of our marketing department folks, I don't know. But seeing how bad the A&M athletics marketing folks are at self-awareness, there's a good chance one of those folks told Sharp this would be a great idea.

Heck, they didn't even know NCAA football ditched the "Division I" wording several years ago. It's been called FBS for at least 5 or 6 years, probably more.

I think it's technically Division I-FBS. The plaque was presented at the same time Colby Carthel was presented his for winning a Division II national championship at, I believe, TAMU-Commerce.

Not defending it, just giving context.

Hey now, guys. 2024 will be a clean slate with early season game against high ranked Domers in Kyle Field, no BAMA, 12 team CFP and whorns in Kyle (still yet to be confirmed BTW).

Which makes it an extra level of face palm. At an event to honor a coach who won a championship, you give a different coach a plaque for a bigger achievement he hasn't achieved.

It's like if you were going to a party for your cousin's graduation from Arizona State and you interrupted the festivities to give a plaque to a high school freshman for graduating from Harvard, because you figure they will someday.

We definitely should hire cheaper coaches so our fans can't have unrealistic expectations, you said???

This is the type of stuff that really illustrates the piss poor job being done by the coaching staff.
Either I will find a way or I will make one.

Or…no results for way too much money but you know you can't win. Think Tom Wilson…

1. SEC Refs intentionally screwed us the 2019 Georgia game

2. Shellacking North Carolina in Orlando wasn't exactly a home game

Something he has yet to do? Anything he was brought here to do. Win the west, win the conference, win a natty. Not even a 10 win season.
