I read on line we are 9.5 underdog to Grambling. We are underdogs in the voting in different regions of the US. Glad we are. WELCOME! You’re new HERE!

I ain't no gambler and I guess it showed.
Glad we are favored but we can't take nothing for granted.

He’s never been negative towards A&T except when we merited it (poor play). He’s literally the most Aggie non-Aggie I’ve ever known. If you think otherwise you’re seeing things that simply aren’t there. His story is he signed with Long Beach State when they cancelled football. He went juco then he had two years of eligibility remaining and wanted to major in political science. He figured he might as well go to DC if he was going to be a politician. Howard needed a qb. The rest is two years of Howard history. From hearing him talk about Ayantee I believe he had never known about it until arriving at Howard and fell in love with Ayantee to the point he would send his daughter there. There have been a number of Aggies who have seen him at A&T games cheering for the Aggies. Saying he has anything against A&T is at best extremely uninformed. I’ll leave the criticism at that so maybe we can get back to the actual spirit of the thread. i totally agree 100%. i've never sensed any negativity towards a&t coming from him, to me its quite the opposite. he's had us ranked #1 in hbcu almost ever since the season started and he "shockingly" (to me) ranked our band #3 overall of all hbcu's in the country, even i don't think bgmm is the 3rd best hbcu band in the land. so i'm not sure where the idea that walker is negative towards a&t comes from. i mean, dude darn near "blushes" every time he talks about tarik cohen on tv...

For the record, I'm hoping for an Aggie victory and know that my heart will always pump blue and gold. I am also the AD liaison for football for the SWAC and that means that I will be spending the majority of my time on the other side. So let's leave no doubt as to where my heart is, but unfortunately I must follow my paycheck. Peace!! 4xl, we know you bleed aggie blue and gold, we know you're one of us. heck, you even wore the aggie blue and gold under hornsby howell! so we know where your heart lies, yet we also understand that you have a job to do. so as the old saying goes, "once an aggie, always an aggie"! furthermore, "aggie born, aggie bred, and when i die i'll be an aggie dead"...

so i'm not sure where the idea that walker is negative towards a&t comes from. i mean, dude darn near "blushes" every time he talks about tarik cohen on tv... Other than Southern 1st, BCU 2nd, whom would you place at #3 (just curious)

Other than Southern 1st, BCU 2nd, whom would you place at #3 (just curious) i think jay walker ranked bcu #1 and southern #2. now of course i'm no expert on hbcu bands, but to me the swac always has some really good bands including southern as you stated, but also jackson state and grambling. tennessee state has a pretty good band too and i also think famu's 100 is finally getting their mojo back. hey, i'm not saying the bgmm isn't one of the best hbcu bands in the country, i'm just saying i don't think we're the 3rd best. i can see us top 5 though. but again, i'm not an expert on hbcu bands...

Thanks! Most SWAC Bands utilized a lot of gimmicks(i.e over weight girls) but I respect your opinion! Grambling living off reputation, and Tenn State has lost some of their Mojo! and far as Jackson State (Southern gives them the business on a regular) i.e. (BOOM BOX CLASSIC 2017) Thank you for your reply!

You must hate Southern, they are not overrated,they have been No.1 in all polls that are relevant! Again,as stated in my earlier post,They went to Charlotte with other band heavyweights and DOMINATED! If you Google them,and know anything about bands,no one wants to battle them!

We are 11 and 0 going for 12 let's get ready for the last AGGIE Football Game of the year AGGIE PRIDE PS LOVE The BGMM I'm a bandhead and this conversation is boring me! Opinions are like a-holes, everybody has one! I agree, our focus should be on the game not the bands. Halftime will come and go but the game will live on forever. By the way, the Grambling wessels have come out of the closet and they are talking much trash on every social media site. I've decided to let our team do my talking. Sure hope our team comes loud and strong. Aggie Pride!
