Then turning around and acting like we have never seen a damn option before in the Orange Bowl. Dak throwing for 450 yards was the only thing that made that game worth flying to Miami.Quote:

We Believe made it even worse. Reminds of those space suit uniforms we wore while getting our ass handed to us by Texas A and M. Maybe just play football. That's special by itself without slogans and clothing designers.Quote:

1-11 with a win vs. OM is better than 11-1 with a loss to OM in a lot of State fans eyes. Same can be said about OM. I like to think that 2014 was from the ‘13 Egg Bowl to the 51-0 Vandy game. Feels better to think about it that way.Quote:
