Pretty easy actually.. It's not cognitive dissonance. They have a new offensive system and their QB is a very good passer. Ya'll didnt play that last year. It was more of a run game. Joe Brady has changed that this year.

You see, the thing is, every year is different. Let's talk about your cognitive dissonance last year. We beat UGA, You say they didnt want to be there. That is cognitive dissonance.

Your post will be more relevant after ya'll play LSU.



You clearly don't know what cognitive dissonance means. Saying Georgia did not want to be there is not cognitive dissonance. Having inconsistent thoughts (like GoodAg pointed out in his original post) is cognitive dissonance. Dumb ****.

You gonna answer the question about whether your fans have been unbecoming acting like they are something when they have not won in a decade? You sure were quick to accuse us of that behavior.

Or do you suffer cognitive dissonance? You can not make this stuff up. The irony, hypocrisy, arrogance, and lack of self awareness is breath taking. Unless you are a sip.

You were Texas, we are now.

  • A&M beats LSU last season: LSU sucks

So how does Horn reconcile this?

1. Our lone healthy RB couldn't catch a cold in an emergency room.
2. Our D couldn't get a stop against my mother and her bridge club.
3. We sucked.

Longhorns lost their super bowl.

It was nothing but another road game for LSU with a huge disadvantage of only one game of experience in the new offense.

Sorry whorn

Your Aggies didn't look worth a **** either. On the football board they're giving Mond a hard time. I thought he looked better than your receivers - they looked like crap. Your D looked better than the Horns, but not a lot. You're likely to be in trouble against the swamp kitties too.

One game is a small sample size but how do you figure "not by a lot" on D?

It remains to be seen how good LSU's offense is. Clemson is a known quantity. Holding the defending champs to 24 on the road vs giving up half a hundred at home to LSU? Good thinking.

Hate to admit it because I loathe the whorns, but they looked much better than I expected against LSU. Ehlinger is a pretty good qb and a gamer like Bucky was. After our offensive showing, hard to throw stones...Flame away.

Nope, Google is your friend. We beat them six in a row and they walked from the final four years of a ten year contract. Sorry to pop your bubble.

Glad to see y'all are back... to the Charlie Strong days...

The cognitive dissonance is that because LSU threw all over sips' defense, sips think LSU's offense is something nobody in the world can stop. They think this even though their defense, especially their pass defense, is terrible and has been terrible for years.

These dumbasses think their is no way A&M can hold LSU to less than 45 points on the road, even though A&M only gave up 24 to Clemson on the road yesterday. In their mind, they really think their defense is better than ours and they just play better offenses, even though they give up 300 + passing yards to team like Latech.

No, but the defense played very poorly. I said your defense looked better than ours, but also said not a lot. Clemson pulled their horns in with a three touchdown lead and A&M showing little life on offense until late in the fourth quarter. It felt to me like Clemson could crank it up and go score if they needed to. UT looked nervous and uptight. They need to relax and play football. I hope we both get better as the year goes on.

Yes it is. It's a rationale to make things relatable in your head. That is exactly what cognitive dissonance is.

Ed, Texas beat UGA. Fact. You say that UGA didnt want to be there. Opinion/Thought. You're using cognitive dissonance to say "well, UGA just didnt want to play." Their head coack clearly said that wasn't the case.

You still have not answered the question about whether your fans have become "unbecoming" when they have not won anything in over a decade. I mean, you accused Aggie fans of that, correct?

And is that not cognitive dissonance? Actually I know as a doc it is simply denial coupled with projection but fascinating and so, so predictable from your ilk.

Joe Burrow throws receivers open. Looked legit in a new system.

So what have you won recently? As in a decade? I would hesitate to cast the stone you did my friend.

And that is the cognitive dissonance as it is with all my sip friends, you think you are something you no longer are.

Beat UGA but they didn't care. So that's why they dont have any recruits and a lame duck coach (he is if he didnt have his team prepared.)

So you won a Sugar Bowl? What does that count for? You made a statement about Aggie fans that seems very similar to tu fans. Would you agree?

And using your logic about how every season is different(our beating LSU is old news according to you) then how is your beating Georgia last year relevant? Or are you saying that we beating LSU last year does not matter but you beating Georgia does? Now that is some convulted reasoning. And possibly a psychiatric disorder.

I said you should win before talking *****. so what? Did you get paid before you became a skin doctor? Probably not

What have you won? In recent memory? And as I already asked, why does your win over Georgia last year mean so much and our win over LSU does not. And that would be the same LSU team that beat you a day ago.

This is truly cognitive dissonance defined.

Is Georgia running a new offense? I dont think so. Read of my previous posts. I clearly said that you shouldn't compare year to year. Go reread.

So didn't you beat Georgia last season? That is the same season we beat LSU correct?


Just to make sure I understand this, if we beat Georgia this year but they do not run a new super duper offense then it doesn't count?

Kind of like our beating LSU doesn't count, but you beating Georgia does. Just want to be sure I understand the rules.

You are missing the point. Everyone here discounts our win vs UGA because they didnt want to be there. That is cognitive dissonance.

Now you are comparing LSU last year vs this year. Again, cognitive dissonance. They actually have a passing game. Play both teams this year and let's follow up.

What do you say if you lose by 3 TDs in both games? Then it will be "we played the toughest schedule and had attrition" again, that's cognitive dissonance.

Cognitive dissonance is something every human does so that is why this post is stupid. I feel dumber for having to explaun it. Should I explaine darwinism/evolution next?

It amazes me that you sips actually truly believe UGA was 100% motivated to be at that game, especially after losing a chance to get to the CFP; the bigger prize was already lost. You think the pregame reports are false? Many national media have said the same that UGA didn't want to be there

Also add in the fact that one coordinator was already out the door and another was gonna leave.
