If they combined us together there would be a nuclear explosion.

Just had another thought...and GA mentioned this before the Auburn game. Aggies need to learn to deal with adversity AND success. The team needs to not relax when we get a lead, etc. We saw that, at least to some extent, in the Auburn game. We didn't handle the success well!
It's probably fair to say, after years of mediocrity (or less!) with football, that our fans are dealing with the same thing. And while a loss to Auburn isn't success, it is a great feeling to go into a game like that and expect to win. At least that's how I felt.
So, some of these grandiose forecasts of beating down Weber on Saturday are probably us as fans being "excessively optimistic" with our new world. GA's a great coach, and we're all excited about the direction of the program. I love our fans though!
Just a thought...much respect to Weber, your fans and athletes. See you all on Saturday!

Aggie fan here,
I quickly went through the Aggie prediction thread and averaged score predictions removing predictions from Weber fans, an USU troll and an Auburn fan (who said we would win 52-10). The result is a score of 44 to 20 in favor of the Aggies.
I also averaged the Weber predictions on your site including one prediction on the USU site not on the Weber site. The average score is 34 to 31 for the Aggies.
I have also seen when one set of fans are very optimistic about their team they average about a ten point increase in their teams score. Both teams have a lot of optimism regarding their teams play after last week so if you remove 10 points from Aggie predictions you get a score of 34 to 20. If you remove 10 points from wildcat fans you get a score of 34 to 21.
I hope there is a good game with no injuries and after this week, great success from both teams. I will root for the Wildcats for every game after they play my Aggies and I hope to see a 34 to 21 win for USU on Saturday

my understanding of Jumbogate:
Most Aggie lds faithful left the church after a byu student left a l0 second message on their jumbotron after the Aggies lost in the Marriott Center, it read something like "Enjoy the loss Aggies, Love your Big Brother BYU". Most dissenting church members started their own sect involving Warren Jeffs, cheese (fermunda), and Wranglers.

Agreed!! After my beloved Cats, I always cheer for the Aggies (I do have an absolute and complete hatred for BYU and Utah; I could care less about the shit down south). Whenever I hear the Scotsman I can't help but to sing along. As for Saturday. I really do hope for a close, good/clean game, that is injury free. Of course, I'm hoping for a Weber State victory, then again, I am looking through purple colored glasses.

Ah, yes. Now I remember. Though I don't remember any threads about emailing the Church about it. If there were Aggies B&M'ing about that I probably told them to get over it, too.skeeter said:

LOL, you just proved BBD's point in this post. Not 1 of those predictions are 50 points or more! So a few people think we beat a Big Sky team by 30 points...I don't see the big deal. Did you see us play Saturday? If not, you'll see why people are so optimistic this Saturday.
Also, one more thing. This smiley represents some of the people this message board so well. :willybs: :willybs: :willybs: :willybs: :willybs:

I didn't ask you to jump on the bandwagon, merely understand why "some" of our fans are so optimistic. We flat dominated the defending National Champions in their house for 57 minutes...
For reference, I bet if we were playing Wyoming this week, the final score prediction average would be similar to what it is for you guys, around 17-21 points.

And Weber flat out dominated Wyoming in many aspects of the game, but how can any Aggie fan just assume they are better than Wyoming? I go back to what I said before, USU has history of playing thier BCS foes real close only to turn around and finish 2-10, 3-9 and 4-8.
Why should we assume that this year will be any different? You guys looked good against Auburn, but you also looked good against Oklahoma and TA&M, and we all know how those seasons ended.

They didn't say it would be a 50 point smackdown but they are all expecting to blow us to infinity and beyond according to this thread's vote count. http://www.usufans.com/Forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=13876" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Auburn will not make it to a bowl game this year; even though 75% of all FBS teams go bowling. This Auburn team only shares one thing with last season's BCS Champ; the name on their jerseys. Auburn looked sluggish, confused, and inexperienced. With that being stated, I'll admit it, USU looked good last week against a supposedly far superior team (SEC). They moved the ball well, controlled the clock, and were able to limit Auburns offense. What does that tell us? Not a whole lot. However, if USU can't have a winning season and go bowling this year, with the absolute joke of a schedule they have, wow...there should be no hope for Aggie football.
Weber may be an Division I FCS team, but at least we can say we've had 10 win seasons and winning seasons in the past 30+ years.

Hanging your hat on a loss, regardless of how close the game was or who the opponent was, shows the pathetic state your football program has been in over the past three decades. I've never seen so much excitement over a loss. And I sure hope the team takes Weber as lightly as their fans are.
PURPLEFORLIFE said:
We'll see about that. Even the worst SEC teams are better than bottom MWC teams.
Are you seriously bragging about 10 win season/winning seasons in the FCS? Yeah, we beat Big Sky teams too, they usually make up most of USU's wins, and isn't USU like 10-1 vs. Weber all time?
