CSU-Pueblo finished their season last Saturday with a dub to end up at 8-3. No playoffs this year - their schedule was front loaded with their toughest 3 (Grand Valley State, Western Colorado and CO School of Mines) in their first four games. Took Grand Valley to double-OT up there (which was cool), lost to Western (which they probably shouldn't have) and got railed by CO Mines (which everyone has). After playing special teams and getting 3 series in the 4th quarter of game 1 against Midwestern, my son came in on the 3rd series of the game in Grand Rapids and started at MLB the rest of the season (with the exception of the last game). Pueblo had gotten way behind in the 1st quarter against them, and as we were coming back in the 2nd half, he intercepted a pass and returned it 40 yards for a score. He ran back to the middle of the sideline and threw the ball to me in the stands becuase he wanted to keep his first TO. I should've walked off, but we were freaked out that he was going to get penalized for it, so we tossed it back. That was pretty cool, especially in that stadium full of 16,000, which was very much a Division 1 atmosphere.

It was interesting to see his progession. I wondered during the season if he was actually that much better than the kid who was the starter in game 1. In the 2nd to last game against South Dakota Mines, he was ejected in the third quarter for what I thought was a BS targeting call. So we got to see the first half of the last game without him on the field, and it was pretty clear why he was starting. I'd noticed in the last 4 games of the season that the offenses were scheming him - they'd move him out of the box into coverage and run away from him when he would shift away inside the box. That was pretty neat to see.

Today he was named Defensive Freshman of the Year for the RMAC as well as Honorable Mention at linebacker. He deserved it, and I'm glad the conference coaches agreed. We're obviously proud of him, but I'm more happy for him. He works his ass off, loves the game, and I'm glad someone noticed.

I went to every game (wife missed 2 to stay home with our youngest), and the season flew by. I've not traveled as much as I did this fall; I haven't been home on a Saturday since the 2nd week of August, and we'll be out again this weekend - headed to watch the Aggies, finally. Will be interesting to see the Ags play without Jimbo on the sideline.

What dish channel is the game on today?

If we should happen to win the next 2 games,including a good win over lsu, and then a win over a decent team in a bowl game. That would push our record to 9 and 4. Where or what game do you think the season turned around. I'm saying the 2nd half of ol miss. The team moved the ball at will and just came up a bit short. I saw an interview with anias Smith yesterday. In his words he said the team just said that they were tired of losing. I saw a renewed energy in that second half of that game that I haven't seen a year. This carried over to last week.

The good news is it doesn't get much worse than this.... does it?

I will turn on the SEC Nation as soon as possible. But listening to that Asshat Pat Mc rant to start the show is too much. I switched to a PBS Cosey Mystery Murder held in a quaint England countryside town. It is unreal how many people are murdered for crazy reasons in the town, population about 2,000.

Anyway, Desmond has abandoned us and we are officially cut loose. It feels free knowing we never found relevancy and never will. I'm free to garden and the 24 hour rule goes out the window.

But I'm being selfish. All respect to James Madison. The future of ESPN.

over/under of 56.5

Might be a bit lower after tonight.

Losing 42-7 to 4-6 Wazzou at the half.

The Braves traded 3 former 1st round picks to the white Sox for a guy with a 6.79 ERA last year.

For those who remember the 90's, the current feeling sure feels like the Slocum Years, except we aren't getting 9-10 wins a year like we did then. Lots of talent, lots of missed expectations.... And to think Slocum got less than $1M a year.

is the son of UTSA HC Jeff Traylor, and is a former Texas A&M QB (2015) and is a graduate of Texas A&M University, Class of 2015. I’m guessing Jeff knows something about TAMU.

Still emotional to think of those we lost

here

We have a basketball team.

Someone decided that they needed an Aggie in charge and asked Dan Campbell if he’d take the job. It was a very short conversation that ended in no.

Ha ha, I said. But one never knows.

I don’t watch a lot of NBA. When did SA get all funky with colors?

I've procrastinated with my Aggie Pass tickets. I just received my seven tickets for the ACU game. They are in the SE corner of Kyle in section 342. I can't use them, long story. I'll be happy to give them away. First come first serve.

This is just sickening. I’ve always known the media has hated us and looks for every opportunity to down us but this is different level shit! In fact it’s truly disgusting! These people are literally advertising other schools for current players on our roster that haven’t even technically entered the transfer portal… how the hell is that ok!? Before they talk about Nolen here this video they were talking about Connor Weigman to Clemson. I mean WTF!!???

I can’t remember any time in the past the media has advertised for other schools for players not even technically in portal yet. Idk but this is just a different kind of “dirty” and these people can truly go FVCK THEMSELVES!

I have to cook one of these for the fam and am interested in any recipes or little recommendations. Pete’s Fine Meats gouged me on a prime cut, so don’t want to screw it up.

Thanks.

Seems like perfect timing. He’s the guy I want.

WSJ article

if you are playing this level of a school, why not play that in week 2 and move the Miami game to week 5-ish? Most of the SEC does this but outside of bama and UGA, what difference does it really make?
