FINAL: Texas A&M 52, South Carolina 28.

[elksnort]

It's very very early in the season and this game, but A&M looks a lot better than I thought they would be.

Uh oh TD for the cocks.

[jbcarol]

A&M 10  SC 7  3:44 1st

TOP  A&M 8:13  SC  3:03

[Atlhogfan1]

Well that may change some things.  Now lets see if this is typical A&M football of the past two seasons where they have jumped out on teams only to have the better adjustments be made by their opponents. 

[Poker_hog]

That changes things

[Huckleberry Pig]

great play call, great route, great throw.

safety jumped the slot guy, left middle wide open

[Deep Shoat]

honest question, would your opinion of him change if they wound up with a good record at the end of this year?  I agree that last year it was easy for him to look good, but I still think he's a good coach.  This year should tell us.

Good coach, but not great.

Unless he starts putting real emphasis on D, TAMU will struggle in the SEC to be more than they have ever been.

[jbcarol]

Ball Coach looking a little better.

[jbcarol]

Blimp angle for the kick off?

[Sweet Feet]

Why don't you go over to your board and talk about Hannah Montana, or whoever y'all play this weekend.....

?

[pigsooietim]

Personally I"m very impressed with Sumlin.. Would love to have him as our coach.. A guy who can coach quarterbacks is the way to win.. Its the future.. We gotta get out of the past.

[Huckleberry Pig]

they needed that BAD.  got the crowd back into it, place was about to be deflated.  my how quickly things change.

if SC can get a 3 and out here, look out

[jbcarol]

1st and 10 from the 20

Hill to Noil near the 40.

[Huckleberry Pig]

we recruited Speedy Noil did we not?

[intelligence]

Good coach, but not great.

A&M is loaded with young defensive talent my friend. That huge DE that got the pressure on thompson on the td pass is a true freshman. so is the starting safety

[jbcarol]

The first Noil, he stopped for no gain.

[jbcarol]

2nd and 10 near the A&M 40

Hill sacked for six yard loss.

[elksnort]

Same ole A&M lately - very good O.  Defense not so great.

I think he is a good coach.  I don't think he is what some make him out to be.  After the 2012 season, he was put into the group of best coaches in college football and some outlets claimed he should be the top candidate for any NFL opening.  I don't think he is in that class.  I've seen too many games the past two seasons where he looked lost once opposing coaches made their adjustments.  His initial gameplans and offense is very effective.

I think A&M has a good record this season.  Hill looks like he will be tough with his mobility for many teams to handle.  And A&M again has future NFL linemen.

Go root for the Aggies.

If he won't give the D some love, he is just a flash in the pan who won't beat the better SEC teams consistently.

[jbcarol]

Smoke draw on 3rd and .01 mile is a couple yards short of the stick.

Drew Brees is a darn qb.

well said, agree 100% with that.

[jbcarol]

SC first down near their 36.

[intelligence]

Thompson is looking settled down a bit. aggie secondary giving SC more cushion now.

Mike davis, 12 yds and a first down in 3 or 4 steps

[jbcarol]

End 1st in Columbia

A&M 10  So. Car. 7

[Deep Shoat]

SC with some corn fed cheerleaders...

[jbcarol]

Kenny Hill  10/13   105   

Thompson   3/6  78 (with 69 yd TD pass)

[DLUXHOG]

SC with some corn fed cheerleaders...

better than A&M's cheerboys....

[Atlhogfan1]

What is the stat for A&M first possession scores the past 2 seasons and 1 game?  It has to be high.  Second possession too. 

SC has the running game going a little better. 

[Huckleberry Pig]

better than A&M's cheerboys....

aint that the truth.  i think a school should be required to have female cheerleaders to be allowed in he SEC

[Huckleberry Pig]

just me or does SC's qb look like he is throwin off his back foot a lot

seems to have happy feet too

[pigsooietim]

Go root for the Aggies.

I pull for the hogs.. and the gobn holds us back. Its not a coincidence we hired someone from the Broyles coaching tree.. But whatever.. I want us to do better so I must not be a fan lol... You go root on your on Aggies or whatever.

[Atlhogfan1]

That screen had a chance to go for nice yardage if Thompson throws it accurately. 

[intelligence]

To the genius who said Kevin Sumlin needed to recruit defense better.... nice job

they have 4 true freshman on the Dline, including the #1 de prospects @ 6'5 255. they are already comparing him to clowney. he's been all over thompson all night.

[DLUXHOG]

aint that the truth.  i think a school should be required to have female cheerleaders to be allowed in he SEC

from SEC Rulebook 007098...
12....
13. Every SEC team will have at least, 4, big breasted, beautiful females on their cheer squad..
14...

[popcornhog]

#45 for A&M? DE.

I don't have volume. Who is he?

[jbcarol]

(AP) Nov 2, 2013 - Manziel threw four touchdown passes and ran for two more scores in ... UTE Miners forced a three-and-out on A&M's first drive to end a streak of seven straight games with a touchdown on the first possession for the Aggies.

i'll drink to that!

[intelligence]

#45 for A&M? DE.

I don't have volume. Who is he?

Myles Garrett. true freshman. #1 de in the class. 6'5 255, 4.6 40
sumlin said he's the strongest guy on the team

he's number 15 btw

[jbcarol]

Hill underneath to Seals-Jones near the SC 34

[SteveInArk]

A&M still showing good stuff on Offense.

[The_Bionic_Pig]

South Carolina is unable to make open field tackles and their D-backs are giving them 5 yards cushions

Who said "recruit"?

The Aggies always have good classes.  But the D sucks ass right now.

Like the O under RC Slocum.

Recruiting is only the first step, no matter what some people tell you.

[Huckleberry Pig]

Hill has an arm

[jbcarol]

First down pass to Pope in the red zone.

[jbcarol]

Jesse: Hill's throwing strikes all over the place just like his daddy did.

Look lost on defense?  Or how?  How can you can go 20-6 in 2 seasons and be lost?  Florida, LSU (2), Bama, auburn, and mizzou are all he has lost to..only 1 of those by more than 7 points. 

Your opinion of course but as long as Sumlin is at A&M, they are winning 9 games a year

[Huckleberry Pig]

A&M still showing good stuff on Offense.

yep, doing a good job of spreadin out SC.  SC looks lost

[ricepig]

South Carolina is unable to make open field tackles and their D-backs are giving them 5 yards cushions

Yep, looked way too familiar.
