While I will always be a true-blooded Aggie who loves the spot where the sagebrush grows, I have to say that I have a hard time being happy with the state of our football team. Now, I grew up in a football house so I appreciate a good program like the one run by Notre Dame great Lou Holtz. What I have a hard time appreciating is that I attend a school that has now been touted to be, as ESPN so delicately put it, "the worst football program in the nation." SO, as I watched my beloved Aggies play last Friday night against BYU, I thought of a couple of things that you might want to think about for your next game:
1. Although you play in a refurbished stadium, it does not mean that your reputation for being really bad has changed. It just means that now we get to watch you with more beautiful surroundings. With better refreshments.
4. Last but not least, I think that maybe we need to go over our colors. When on the field, look around at what color jersey you are wearing and then make sure that you only throw the ball to people that are wearing the same color that you are. And here is another tip to the quarterback: the reason that they always know where you are throwing the ball is that you need to be quick quick quick to throw because the other team can see where you are looking.
Ah, how I love you Aggies, but sometimes you make it tough to love you. I have faith that one day you will be a program that everyone will be proud of but until then, I will go to your games at least once a year and look cute with Shayna and Laura wearing our game shirts.

hahaha oh the poor aggies...Is anyone ever going to do something about the horrible program? Or are they just gonna sit back and watch the embarrassment?
I loved going to Aggie football games. Of course when I went there they did have a winning team. But ya gotta love them anyway. Go Aggies!
I want one of those t-shirts! Too cool. USU's money goes to basketball, don't ya know?? It just takes a little more gearing up to go to games where you know your team's going to lose....
I can't wait for my Aggie husband to read this post. I was laughing right out loud!
In our family we have a confused household. I am first and foremost a BYU fan. True Blue BYU. Todd is a USU fan but doesn't tell anyone, and our whole family and everyone else in this city are Boise State fans. Todd has a family plan for season tickets to Boise State. He can't quite get enough! Have you heard about our Broncos? Pretty great team. Now they could give your Aggies some pointers! Go Boise State! and BYU! (and USU but just don't tell anyone. :)
As a BYU football fan and an avid Aggies basketball fan...I still loved your posts. Love the game day shirt - hilarious! Poor Aggies - just need to start scheduling Mountain Crest and SkyView for some football competition. But hey - it is almost basketball season so GO AGGIES!!! Loved the post - made me laugh!
