The words of everyone's favorite hype video, it's tiiimmmeeeeeee! The air is crisp, our freshly printed syllabi are crisp, and football season is among us. Will Texas A&M sweep the nation? Of course we will. That is not the question at hand. The question is will we be sweeping the nation in the form of crippling shock or overwhelming victory?
Honestly, it's all up in the air at this point. Between losing to UCLA right out of the gate only to beat Nicholls State this past week, the various season outcome possibilities are endless. Here are 20 A-A-A-A-A things that cause me less stress than standing as the twelfth man this nail-biting, all-consuming, get-your-kissing-done-at-midnight-yell Fightin' Texas Aggie football season here in College Station.
