This weekend's games

Question #1: How in the world is Texas A&M favored by NINETEEN over Oklahoma State? I understand that OSU is bad, but that line looks way out of whack to me, the way A&M's defense has been playing. I guess there's heavy betting on the Ags to win, but the line opened at 17.5, so it hasn't even moved much. I guess we'll be looking at something like 49-30? I'll be happy with a "W", no matter how we get it.

Question #2: How in the world does Texas Tech have ANOTHER freaking home game? Are they playing on the road the rest of the season? This is their 5th home game this year, out of 6 games. Am I reading that schedule right? Only 4 road games: @NEB, @Austin, @Waco, and @Stillwater???? I guess an upset in Austin makes undefeated look possible. Wow. Look for the Spread Raiders to destroy K-State at homecoming. Will a 6-0 Tech team slip into the top 10?

Question #3: Who will win the stat battle this week between Robert Johnson and Jason Carter? Carter won last week, but only by padding his numbers in garbage time. Both receivers were quiet on the road last week, and should light it up again tomorrow. If Johnson can get Cody to quit throwing it to Filani's side of the field, that is. Carter will continue to be McNeal's favorite target, especially with another receiver out with an injury (E. Taylor), and DeQwan "Dance Grooves" Mobley unable to hold onto the ball.

Peace out

UT has caught on - their 2006 schedule has 7 home games, including nemesis Sam Houston St.

yeah, Gerald Myers and DeLoss Dodds must have shared a tampon or something. Being a pu$$y is contagious.

My, how times have changed for those pooooor Aggies.

Schedule smack. I love it.

When's the Dan Campbell speech scheduled?

yeah, times have changed haven't they. I have been on the receiving end of so called "schedule smack" many times....only it was the Tek fan or apathetic Longhorn explaining why A&M was so dominant in the 90's.

Sometimes, you just have to go with what you've got: right now it's schedule smack, and for at least 18 days.....SCOREBOARD!
