This is my first foray into blogging on Roosterbowl. My biggest fear is misspelling a word or having a typo...both of which will draw the ridicule of blake. My second biggest fear is accidentally saying something bad about Lubbock, which will cause Blake to go Postal.
In all honesty, this is a big weekend for both the Ags and the RedFaders. the outcome of these two games tell us a lot about the fate of these teams. I hate to admit it, but both squads could win big or lose big.
For the Aggies, a loss would confirm something that no Aggie fan wants to admit...we might have been one of the most overrated teams in the country. Conversely, a win means the embarassment of poor games against Texas State and Baylor are quickly forgotten and the ags are back in the top 25.
As for Tech, let's be honest...Nobody has a clue what Tech really is or isn't. The nonconference schedule told us nothing and the game against Kansas was pretty mediocre. Winning in Lincoln is a big accomplishment, even when Nebraska is down. I will tip my hat to Tech if they win. A loss to nebraska makes Tech look like a fraudulent team that "can't hang with the big boys".
As always, I will root for both teams so that the Rooosterbowl takes on more importance. Okay, okay, it's prediction time... I have no clue but here goes nothing.
I will take the Faders in a surprisingly low scoring game 22- 20. Out of frustration with his offense, Leach goes for two twice and it works even though it doesn't really make sense.
Aggies win 44-38 in a surprisingly high scoring game. Aggies get out to a big lead and piss it away. Reggie forced to make some plays at the end to keep the win intact. Reggie has a great game after two poor weeks.
Any thoughts?

I do think the A&M/CU game will be high scoring, and that should result in an Aggie victory....and Tech fans would be thrilled with the scenario that you gave--coming out of Lincoln with a W is a big deal.
I will be rooting for Tech too, as I don't want no Texas team losin' to no Cornholer. That being said, I am going to predict a victory for the home team. Nebraska has a great defense, and after Tech's poor offensive showing against Kansas (23 pts), I think their first road game might be a disappointment.
What's really happening here is that Joe, in an effort to deflect attention from the $2 million Fraud, has stacked the deck on the blog - meaning the more Aggies posting, the less attention is placed on a very poor team that the Land of Collie has produced. In fact, the McDonald's managerial training center located down the street from the Chicken, has put out better teams than the Ags in recent memory.

As for Tech, well, we'll finally see if the coaches/sportswriters who vote in the polls know what's really going on. As I've said before, I think Tech is realistically about #19.
FOX Sports finally put Tech in its poll this week at #24, and thinks Tech is good enough after beating Kansas to be Cotton Bowl bound. I guess that's an improvement over last week, where Tech was not found anywhere in the FOX poll, and were projected, if memory serves, to pay a visit to either San Antonio or Houston.
All of that for beating Kansas?
Honestly, I expected Tech to perform better, but Kansas has never been a pushover for Tech, and nobody got hurt.
Anyway, I expect the better team to win in Lincoln tomorrow, and I really don't think there's any doubt as to whom that is, although as we all know, the better team doesn't necessarily always win - in other words: that's why you play the game.
Tech 35-17
outnumbered? what a lame excuse. where are the Tech fans? there is no registration required for comments. They just have to show up.
You, T-Bag, and Ted = 3
Me = 1
that's primary posters. ANYONE can comment. Where are your fellow drunkards to get your back?
