Recruiting Football Talk VII

[engineerVOL]

when the yell leaders sound "squeeze, aggs!" The fans grab their balls as hard as they can to "share pain with the players on the field" or to make themselves yell louder - I've heard it told both ways

What in the name of self flagellation is that, you've gotta be kidding me.

Always liked sending that little monk to go collect relics.

Honestly not sure if I ever played the original AOE, but AOE 2 was very good, and AOE 3 was the shiz.

The monk looking dudes that were basically suicide bombers were very underrated. But no greater force than the French Curaissers.

Is Texas A&M a college for gay men?

Because that video makes it look like one.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I about spit out my water and piece of asparagus in my mouth

But I always swallow...

I thought you were kidding. . .

"When we do our coordinated group yells (led by our all-male cheerleaders) all the students 'hump it' by bending over and grabbing their knees (note: nut-hugging is not encouraged). Supposedly it's done to increase your lung capacity and make you yell louder, but like many things around here it's become a tradition.
"Our yell leaders start the yell by passing back a hand signal -- you'll hear the student section yell, 'Pass it back Ags,' followed by, 'Hump it Ags,' and then the yell leaders commence the actual yelling."

That's good and dandy, but to show solidarity with the boys on the field some fans take it to another level, specifically the Corps of Cadets.

The Cadets bend and grab their knees, only they also have been known to grab their junk at the same time. Allegedly, the yell leaders shout "Squeeze Ags!" to commence the shared bond.

Texas A&M's "Junk Squeeze" Tradition is Truly Nutty

Traditions are the heart and soul of college football. Each team has their own set of yells, chants, songs or walk-out music unique to its program and only its program. It creates identity. It creates excitement. It creates pride. Down in College Station, Texas, Texas A&M has one tradition that...

It sounds like they'd enjoy you at Texas A&M then.

Looking to make the trip this weekend to Tuscaloosa for the game with my Dad. No tickets so needing to scalp. Any advice?
Does Bama do digital only tickets like we do or are physical tickets still used? Thanks for the help.

Check out the ticket forum. That’s where I’ve had the most luck in the past vs a third party site

Realizing there’s a lot of season left with a lot of chances for this to go sideways: if there’s a chance we’ve truly become a team that beats you to death with hammers, there are few more stunning year-to-year transformations of a team I can remember in this sport. I think we might have a hell of a coach.

 

[volinbama256]

I noticed early in Florida game they used a lot of misdirection, screens, and such to slow our pass rush and aggressiveness down. I expect Bama to do they same including design QB runs.

Those would be great for us to do...

 

[volinbama256]

Was at the game but just watched it on TV. Gotta stop this run up the middle on first down... just a wasted play... everyone and their grandmother knows we're gonna do it... keep them off guard. That's what Pruitt and Butch would do on first down...

Saw where Dee W is "lobbying" for time on offense... Pretty simple, the guy has all the tools and can catch--- just replace Thornton. He's been a huge disappointment so far and every time Dee has the ball, something great seems to happen... Give him a few pitches/screen/misdirection and turn him loose!

Stop with the Randy Sanders nonsense.

My son has just discovered DN jokes and it’s all he says now. Everything is DN, he just can’t stop.

I asked him where he heard that joke. He made me promise that if he told me he wouldn’t get in trouble. I agreed. So he leans in and whispers…“DN”.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Still can’t get over this one… when you’re getting this kind of whistle against Texas A&M in Knoxville, you know Bama in Tuscaloosa is fixin’ to be an all-timer.

Quite possibly the worst DPI no call I’ve ever seen..

Meh. I love the strong running game and defense, but it would be nice if a 6th year QB could consistently complete passes beyond 5 yards downfield.
