lmao what does that have to do with my comment? I was watching the game and looking at stats What it has to do with your comment is that we are not that much better . And going forward they are going to have to be a lot better then they are now . I mean that wasn’t the point of my post but I guess lol. We had 4 picks today 🤷🏾♂️

I, like the rest of you, am grateful for the win. At the same time, I can't deny that it was frustrating to watch. On to next week....

We still talking about penalties 9 games into the season. Hell, it seems as though some Aggie fans go to the games just to concentrate on our penalties.
What is our record at this time - 6-3. Should be 7-2 but I won't expound on that.
My point is, if it ain't broke don't fix it. I hate the penalties also, but that is the culture of our team which has produced a winning record.

Is Salahuddin still on the team? I guess he was among the 14 Aggies who were out with "the flu."

Championships are won with discipline and execution . Yes you can win against less talented teams without it but your equally matched teams 99% of the time it will be the team that is less penalized that wins the game. There is no Rhyme or Reason for this to be happening 9 games into the season .

Saab, it is still happening because that is the culture or nature of our team. I know your knowledge of the game is play by the book but sometimes it does not always work.

Before this season is over, our lack of discipline and penalties will cost us a game and the opportunity to go to the playoffs. And you are right, this is the culture our head coach wants. Those penalties are not a mistake.

'69 you said the team stunk the place up today and the team was sorry. I don't agree with that because these are fine young men learning their way. They also won!!
We have 2 games left and you are correct those penalties can and may cost us a game. However, I think we have the talent to over come them just as we did against Norfolk.
BTW, I don't think our coach teach our kids to make penalties. You did not have this philosophy about Coach Washington during those CB victories and against ECU.

Sooo winning games in the playoffs isn’t the goal of some on this board😂😂😂
The goal is to beat all teams on our schedule not just those with less talent…heck GW had less talent and they beat us last year.
Same with NCCU, less talent but beat us🤷🏾♂️
No one cares about what happened in 2019 or 2018!!

2039 you will be surprised how many people care about what happened in 2018 and 2019. It is mentioned quite often on this site. Ain't nothing wrong with bringing up past history. Hell, Coach Broadway's name is brought up quite often promoting his coaching skills and philosophy a few years back. Some care about that and probably you too.
Your other statement about people not rooting for us to win and get into the playoffs is confusing. Please clarify this statement. Thank you sir.

In the playoffs teams will be just as talented if not more than we are.
We can’t expect to have 140 yards in penalties and win.
Being Accepting of penalties means one doesn’t care about winning in the playoffs. If the team is penalized a lot during the regular season they will also commit those same penalties in the playoffs. Playoff preparation starts in the summer not the day of.
If we commit 140 yards in penalties vs GW we will be watching the playoffs.

I don't condone penalties as you may think. My point is that even though we are committing a bunch of penalties we are still winning.
How come we are still winning is because we have more and better talent than the teams we have beaten.
Some fans go to the games and they can't see the trees for the forest. These fans are concentrating on the negative (penalties) but are failing to see our talents at running, receiving, blocking, great defense and more.
Alabama's team had 17 penalties against Tennessee and I noticed you said Coach Saban does not condone a bunch of penalties in another thread.
But anyway, we are winning and I think we will win our last 2 games because of our talent. As of late our 6 game winning streak is for real whether you like the penalties or not.
2039 please watch other aspects of our team and not solely on penalties

Hasn’t Bama lost twice this year? Close games where one or two less penalties could’ve allowed them to win at that.
And I think it’s safe to assume there’s not going to be one team in the playoff pool we have more talent or resources than. If we’re not disciplined the ship is sunk.
Winning programs act like winners. Most of us are disappointed by the penalties because it’s a bad representation of us as alumni and it’s not how winners act.
