They only want body bag teams.... USU nearly beat Auburn in 2011. Auburn scored 14 points in the final minutes to win 42-38. If USU recovers an onside kick at the end, it's game over.

If USU recovers an onside kick at the end, it's game over. USU had Wisconsin beat as well at Camp Randall the following year too but allowed a late punt return to lose the lead. The Aggies then missed the game winning FG from 37 yards with 6 sec. left and lost 14-16. The season after that we lost 14-17 @ USC. We also had games at Oklahoma and at Texas A&M that weren't decided until the final possession. We've come close so many times, it would sure be nice to pull one of these road "money games" off for once. Who knows what Alabama will look like in 4 years but if it's anything like they are right now I'm not feeling too confident that this will be the one where we finally get the "W".

alum93 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 G5 schools have to pay the bills and the SEC pays top dollar. Plus it's cool to watch your team if you ever have the chance to play in front of 80-100k people. Alabama capacity is 101,821, so basically 3 or 4 MWC average stadiums.

Wells doesn't have a good track record in these games like GA did. I can't decide if it's worse to almost win (taking a symbolic kick in the balls) or get annihilated like we have been lately.

Fort Fun Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Awesome road trip and four years to plan for it. Any Aggie fan who doesn't make the trip to Tuscaloosa should be banished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the SEC has only won 10 national championships since BCS started in 2003, with Alabama taking 5 of them all by themselves. I can see how you feel that way.

halfmanhalfbronco Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I think by "actually beat them" she meant keep it within 14. I think the Boise teams of 2009-2011 could would have had a punchers chance though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are only 4-5 teams that can win on a really good day in Tuscaloosa and the current version BSU ain't one of them. There is no shame in that fact. Good for the Aggies in more than making up any deficit in TV earnings. Who knows, maybe the entire Tide team gets sick and USU stuns the world. A poor BSU BB team beat the Zags that way on one occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crixus Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 If Nick Saban is still coaching in 2022, Alabama wins by 35. I think Bryant-Denny Stadium is the toughest place for visiting teams to play in college football. Good luck Aggie$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, the team is next to impossible to beat, but their fans don't really ramp it up until SEC play starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
