Aaron Jones on when he knew Jordan Love was special:
“The Saints game, I think we were down 17 or something like that. I wasn’t playing that game either, and I’m just there watching. I see him rally the troops, get everybody to kick it in, and wow we came back from down 17. This guy is a gamer… a GAMER.”
College Football Game of the Day!
#15 Texas A&M vs #1 Alabama (2012)
- Otherwise known as the game that made Johnny Manziel famous
- Texas A&M did not have any turnovers
Could the Aggies have played for a National Championship in 2012 if they had stayed in the BIG-12?
The 2012 Aggies finished no. 5 in the rankings, with the 6th best offense in the country and perhaps more importantly the 13th best defense. They were 11-2 on the year with a narrow opening season loss to Florida (three points), another narrow loss to LSU (five points), and then a narrow win on the road against the eventual champion Alabama Crimson Tide (five points). Then they finished the season in the Cotton Bowl against the co-Big 12 champion Oklahoma Sooners, whom they obliterated 41-13. 🤷🏻♂️
