Bama Game Thread: Alabama v Texas A&M - 3.4 CBS 11am

Did I hear this right in football season that the cadets at TAMU have no connection to the actual military or ROTC?

Miller has been the most consistent since all this started, and one would think he would’ve been most affected by it. It’s everyone else that just hasn’t been good. At all.

Performance thus far not surprising. We had a grinding OT game on Wednesday. TAM had an easy game on Tuesday. Our team is approaching burn-out. Need rest both mentally and physically.

Fans and media have been talking 24/7 about events the night of the LSU game. Players probably obsessed with it also - at age 18-19 and ON THE TEAM. Glad we wrapped up SEC title against Barn.

What it is now is that you don't have to accept a commission after graduation if you're in the cadet corp. So basically 4 years of playing dress up.

ETA - they don't have to take any ROTC classes after their first 3 semesters

They used to be all male, all military...

Miller almost made the 90 footer at the buzzer. Don't know if it would have counted or not?

Alot of complaining about the 3's but I'd remind us this is who we are and these aren't bad shots. They are basically challenging us to take them and making driving to the basket very difficult.

We either heat up from 3 or we don't pull this one out.

They we're basically like the Citadel or VMI. When CGS was head coach there he was recruiting to an all male military school during the Vietnam War. No great pickins

Yes, the Yell Leader thang is got to be one of the strangest traditions in college football. Lots of things are called "cults" that are not, but Aggie Family stuff is cultish.

That was a big factor in coach Bryant leaving there, because they were about to go all male...

 

[BamaMan84]

That is how we get back in the game take it to the basket.

 

[Special K]

At least 3rd blown charge call

 

[ROCKEE]

Still no leadership

They were all male when CPB was there

 

[rolltide_21]

We have no answer for their 2-3 zone. They are putting one foot in the lane and being disciplined.

 

[TIDE-HSV]

This worries me, not because it's an important win, but because I'm afraid we'll carry this into the tournament and the NCAA...

 

[Special K]

Our offense is just disjointed

 

[BamaMan84]

To much dribbling.

 

[TIDE-HSV]

I'll check that. In any case, it was a factor in his leaving. I was a freshman when he moved...

That’s weird.

 

[TexasBama]

We're just not with it today
