Pass it Back: Help "12th Man Jesus" take Kyle Field this Saturday
Fans claiming to suffer from Battered Aggie Syndrome probably think Texas A&M will need divine intervention to beat top-ranked Alabama on Saturday.
The Maroon & White may have gotten it already.
During the Ags' win over South Carolina, the Kyle Field jumbotron zeroed in on this guy:
Naturally, the (shocking) amount of hair on display and the brazen "12" carved into his chest hair sent the crowd – and social media – into a frenzy. The Aggies went on to beat the Gamecocks by a touchdown, Twitter erupted and one particularly woolly Aggie was dubbed "12th Man Jesus" for his contribution to the victory.
This isn't the first time the redass deity has graced Kyle Field with his presence. He was in attendance when the football gods smiled upon Aggieland and Texas A&M pulled off a double-overtime victory over Tennessee last season.
According to The Battalion, Sam Tomaso, the civil engineering student behind those luscious locks, put together the look on a whim – hoping to be featured on the scoreboard during the 2016 game – and did the same last week.
Now, Aggies across the internet are praying he makes another appearance when A&M faces the No. 1 Crimson Tide. They've even started a petition on Change.org to have him lead the team out of the tunnel before kickoff.
At the time of writing, the petition sits at 7,129 signatures, just under 400 short of its goal of 7,500, but we think we should push it to 12,000 because #branding.
Who knows, maybe the Ags will get a little help from above against Nick Saban and his Crimson machine with "12th Man Jesus" leading the way.
Pass it back, Ags!
