Hogg and Gilder can't go 35 min every important game
The good news is that we don't have that many important games left.
That means if we lose one of those 'unimportant' games, nobody will be posting complaints or insults on TexAgs?
Is the 2014-2015 NIT season so long ago that it has been forgotten? Despite having won only one game that season vs a team that received an NCAA bid (LSU), Texas A&M would have (per the analysts) still made the NCAA had only it beaten a bad Bama team at home in the last game of season.
Apparently it turns out all those 'unimportant' games can be pretty important, because even if you lose almost every game vs 'important' opponents, you still often can get an NCAA bid if you simply beat everyone that you are supposed to beat.
That is why, with a Virginia Tech win already in the bag, even if A&M were to lose vs Arizona, WVU, Kentucky twice, Florida, South Carolina, and let's say one other loss somewhere in conference schedule...that would still be a 23+ win (13-5) A&M team with a V-Tech win that would get an NCAA bid.
We would probably be double digit seed with not much chance to advance, but we would still get in the tourney.
Every game is important....we had this same gnashing of teeth about 'quality' wins seemingly the entire 2014-2015 season's ...and at the very end all we had to do was beat a Bama team whose coach was about to get fired.
