one of only 2 games that i'll be attending this season, nccu and ghoe. welp, at least that'll be "twice" as many as i attended last season... Sent from my SM-G950U using proboards Really? I never would've guessed that you wouldn't come to as many games as possible... well, as usual, i still own a "pair" of aggie football season tickets that i continue to purchase every year. so whether i attend or not, at least i've put money in a&t's pocket for every home game despite my ill-will towards that pwc conference...

Well, I went to the Queen City Aggie-Eagle Pre-Game Mixer yesterday afternoon in Charlotte and it was interesting. Here are some of my takeaways: 1. A lot of Eagle Alums showed up. I mean they almost outnumber us Aggies. In past years, very few Eagle Alums would show up for these types of events. And if they did, they were low key. 2. The Eagles that showed up were openly bragging about what they did last year and what they had for us this year. It's amazing how one public butt whipping can embolden a fan base. 3. They wore special made tee shirts that said "NCCU beat AT&T" and they took great pride in them. Expect to see half the stadium wearing these shirts on Saturday night. 4. They seriously believe that based on our poor showing against UAB, they are going to kick our butts again this year. Last night's event wasn't the pre-game mixer. It was Scoops for Scholars raising scholarship money for both schools and supporting an Aggie ice cream shop owner. The Pre-Game Mixer is tomorrow (Thursday) night at Harold's Chicken and Ice Bar (44 East McCullough Drive Suite A-100, Charlotte NC)!

SO Roy when we win where is the party going to be at I'm gonna do at least an hour of tailgating after the game. There's a jank going on at George K's from 10:30 to 2. I might go by there.

That school down 85 starts and ends with their QB. Shut him down and they become mediocre at best. I think this game will come to qb play and right now, they have a better qb than we do.

I hate to say it but you are correct. That's why I if we don't contain him with solid tackling he will kill us by extending plays. Our LBs need to fly around this week unlike last week. We need to get after him!

This engagement on Social Media is going to lead to inflated expectations from us Aggies, win or lose. EX: As funny as this is, we can't take this stuff too seriously.

Yea sorry I didn't get the context because I don't go on Twitter/X. It's too much ignorance for me. I still don't get why winston is trying to get involved in our game this weekend. Shouldn't they be concerned with Bluefield State or whoever is on their level?...

I may have to rock a rain suit outright. Are they calling for showers at night?
Will it be Dawgs and Birds in the mud?
