We are coming off a rough year. Everything I read says that A&M should be much improved from last season. They will have recruited to fill those voids in the passing game. I am sure this will be a little bit like AU last year. We will come in thinking we have more than we do and A&M will be better than advertised. I just hope that we are better at the beginning of next season than we were at the beginning of 09.
I won't be making any predictions at all this year. I learned my lesson after last year.:bigcry:
9/11/10 - @ Texas A&M
This game should be interesting. A&M went 6-7 last year, and ended with a crushing defeat in the Indy Bowl against UGA, 44-20.
Johnson is a scrambler. Tech's CBs have the speed and coverage ability to severely limit his air game, and that means that the line will have to compensate by shutting down the ground game and scrambles.
Tech has never beaten Texas A&M in the seven games they have played since 1981.
While the game against Grambling should be a given victory, this one will be a true test of Dykes' coaching skill.
However, the A&M offense is still very good, while the defense is lacking. If we can force turnovers and keep the chains moving, it should be a winnable game.
But a team coming off a 4-8 season and major coaching changes rarely breaks out a Cinderella season, and unless Tech's offense and defense go through an incredible maturation, these bragging rights will stay at College Station.
This was from http://bleacherreport.com/articles/3...techs-schedule breaking down our season next year.
The defense didn't have major changes. We lost some guys but still have a lot of good ones. Same DC. If the offense can gel some, I believe it is definitely winnable.
actually, the 4h. but he's wrong nonetheless.
that was, however, the most points we've ever scored against them (and the least they've scored against us since 1913).
still not a win, so not much to brag about.
Stassen.com only has data back to 1904...Louisiana State vs. Louisiana Tech.
There are two games in 1904, within a week of each other. Can anyone explain this?
i don't know. it was 1904 so it probably wasn't a big deal back then. after the first game, it probably went something like this:
Tech guys: "i bet it would be a different story if we played in ruston with neutral refs."
lsu guys: "ok, how about next week?"
Tech guys: "it's on like a chicken bone"
I am waiting to get excited about beating A&M. My excitement will come, I just have to buy the new version of NCAA football for the PS3 and win a few national titles with Tech first. Then I figure, wow, we are so good in this game, we are gonna pull this one (A&M) off... man, I love Tech football.
