Best 4 loss team in the nation.

Almost

It isn't the one loss to a decent Ole Miss team. It's that he does it over and over in the exact same way.

I'm as bummed as anyone here, but that was a heck of a game. You guys are delusional.

Almost is great in a game with horse shoes and hand grenades!!!!

This is obviously a bait thread and you guys still give the trolls attention

Almost! Nearly there … so close … we'll get 'em next year.

His record is so bad on the road. He statistically should have won a couple of games on accident.

I hadn't thought of it this way, but that's true. When it comes to road games, we're the blind squirrel that doesn't find a nut, even once in a while.

I'm convinced we could lose every game and there'd still be a few delusional sunshine pumpers here trying to justify it

That's called "tradition" at A&M

No school and fanbase is willing to hold on to somebody for about 10 years past their expiration date like we are. We do it in every sport for the most part "because nice guy" or some other garbage.

We shoudn't be paying a coach stupid money because he's a nice guy. We pay for them to come here and win, and when you show you can't do that, hit the road and next batter up. Sure, you may pull at tu and get a string of bad coaches, but at least they cut bait and run fairly quickly - we stick with the 7-5 guy because we are so scared of winning that we'll hapily hang onto middle of the pack and use the "good guy" or "what if the next guy is worse" excuse.

It's what we do. The good news is that, starting next year, we can get back to the time honored Aggie tradition of just needing to beat tu 1 out of every 3 years on average to keep everybody happy and claming we have a successful seaon and program. Nothing like low expectations, we are masters at it here.

They are the #10 team in the country and we played them tight. Other than a few boners, we would've won. Look at our team now versus when we played Miami earlier in the season and I think we are all in agreeance that we have come a long way. I said it before and I'll say it again that the number of new players on our team take awhile to come together to gel into a team. I'm disappointed in our record too but I see the progress.

We are the national champions - repeat national champions - of moral victories. Yay!

At this point I blame Jimbo for the QB injuries, he has not had a decent OL in years and continues to get his QBs killed. Max is under pressure constantly and taking a lot of hits. Weigman took a beating too. So did all of our QBs last year. Its a mess.

It's year 6. You're delusional.

Year 6 with the 4th most talented roster in the nation. We should be going 10-2, at worst, with our talent

Haven't had a starter finish the year since 2020. Total bull crap

Here's to maroon koolaid moral victories!
….. AGAIN

Meanwhile Missou is ranked and competing with Georgia…

Yeah man, we are delusional!

Jimbo wasn't signed for "almost".

Doesn't matter if you lose by an inch or a mile. Losing is losing. And Jimbo does too much losing.

---

I sure hope the next guy gets a realistic contract that doesn't guarantee a decent retirement for no effort.

In year 6 with THIS amount of talent Ags SHOULD beat number 10 on the road because the Ags should be ranked number 5/6 with maybe Bama as the only loss so far. This level of talent should beat other teams. We out gun every roster they play but our coaches don't know how to shoot. It's very sad. Quick fix is fire the OL coach NOW and throw cash at the best replacement out there and get them coached up in time for Weigman healthy next year. Give the still fresh faced QB some time in an actual pocket and gain confidence. Another year of studying Petrino's offense. The epic recruits that remain are more experienced. IF that doesn't work it's clear it's time to buy Jimbo out.

Moral victory U

It was yet another clearly winnable game that didn't happen. That's all it was. This is the trend --- a bad trend, I might add --- that is "quintessential Jimbo Fisher" and his failing football regime. It's so commonplace that many Aggie fans EXPECT this to consistently happen. Had something different occurred yesterday, the Aggie faithful would have been pleasantly surprised. That fact alone should tell you how this acceptance of mediocrity (which begins at the top) have become a cancer on the entire program that needs to be cut out. At this point, waiting for next year or accepting perpetual mediocrity don't seem --- to many of us --- viable options. Second place in football games at any level means only one thing. You are the "first loser." And the competitiveness or the closeness of the loss doesn't soothe anything. It irritates even more. Apparently, some like you are fine with "close but no cigar." You may be an Aggie, but I'm hopeful there aren't a whole lot of Aggies out there who adopt this mentality. It gives the rest of us a very bad name.

---

it was winnable only in the sense we made it close at the end. We weren't going to stop them from scoring -- not in the 4th and not in the overtimes. Who didn't think they were going to score again and take the lead back?

I'm still not convinced Petrino really runs the offense, because his offenses at Arkansas were light years better than what we have now. And you can't say that the talent level was better at Arkansas then.

Nobody is delusional. The "wow we almost beat a ranked team" mentality is why we are referred to as "little brother" by the collective football fan populous. Instead, Expect to be the contender every year. Especially considering multiple top 10 recruiting classes, world class facilities, and a coach making more money than God.

A loss is a loss. There are no moral victories. With our budget, 5-4 is unacceptable.
