@tengland_150 Seems low doesn’t it?

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

@tengland_150 Can we get 17 and hold them to zero? Doubtful on O, and our D is cheesecake. This is a prime market to short or a decent emotional hedge with limited downside.

A&M has a moron at QB coach. The amount of 7-step drops we see on film is insane. Did even Jimbo for all his faults have this level of football idiocy?

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

@GabeBock We are cursed. Not sure how, but we are.

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

I have not felt so defeated about A&M football like I have today. And that includes the Fran years. Have not seen a team that clearly does not give a fuck, from players to coaches. What a horrible horrible job all around. Total shit show.

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

Also, I think @AggieFootball needs to stop tweeting nonsense about business trips and crap like that until the product on the field is at least competitive. This is the least physical and inept A&M team in a decade. Absolute trainwreck.

@TexAgs Marcel practiced airmailing for FedEx, not for a football game.

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

@BigMama Looking at 4-8 to 6-6 right now.

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

Also let’s not pass judgment on Hart. Give him a week of practice with the 1s and let’s see what happens. Lean on the run game to set up the pass. Our RBs are Ok, but hampered because everyone knows Marcel can’t throw.

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

O is a shit show. Starts with Marcel and the Oline. Latter showing some life, but cannot get going because Marcel makes dumbass plays. This is a weak team, not SEC ready. All you can do is limp into the offseason, clean up shop and fix via the portal. Get the best QB to start.

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

A&M’s issues on D are schematic. We have gone away from what makes an Elko D so great. He needs to take over the defense again. Hemphill ain’t cutting
it. No pressure on the QB at all. But missing some serious beef up front. @TexAgs @GabeBock

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

@aggiematt235 We are already paying one dude $70MM. Firing this one is going to cost us a shit ton. Sorry, but Elko has it safe for a few years. Hopefully he’ll clean up shop and start afresh next year. All we can hope for.

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

@GabeBock There’s very little that can be done in-season as these are fundamental issues. You have to fire the coordinators after the season, and spend money in the portal to shore things up. The issue is whether we can make enough tweaks to get to 7-5. Also give Hart and Casuga a shot.

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

@AggieFootball Lol

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

@GabeBock What they are doing is moronic. This game is done and dusted. Best time to give Brady some reps without any pressure. You can see from Marcel’s body language that he’s done. Our coaches can’t read their own room.

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

A&M has dominated on special teams so far. Yay!!

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

@GabeBock Somehow did not feel this bad during Jombo’s worst season. Don’t know why.

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

@PFlat2 4-8 to 6-6

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

@DerekTheAggie Can’t afford one

[Running on Fumes @42YardLine]

Elko’s best secondary looks like turd.
