Most are too young to remember, but this is RC Slocum Aggie football when he was at his peak. Boring offensive starts with suffocating defense. It makes for frustrating watches, but once the opposing team’s defense breaks, it feels good.

I sincerely meant that comment as a good thing. Early 90s RC teams were awesome.

Agreed but even then it was only the penalties that really killed the offense in the first half. Two weeks in a row where the A&M offense has been good to great and only held back by their own lack of discipline. So glad it only lasted one half this time

One key difference: we have displayed the ability to field a real offense.

The second ND cotton bowl we did for the first half, and RC screamed at Bob Toledo so hard at halftime that Bob (who knew he was fired after that game) said “fuck it, I’ll give him the offense he wants.”
