Texas A&M's 18-14 loss to Arkansas State was the worst possible start for new A&M coach Mike Sherman. The debacle was even more galling than merely the program's first home opening-game loss in 21 years -- particularly to a Sun Belt team that finished 5-7 last season and had never beaten a Big 12 team in 15 tries. The Aggies missed two field goals, allowed four sacks, committed four turnovers and the defense was gashed for 280 yards rushing. Even worse, A&M turtle-backed in the second half, squandering a 14-3 lead by failing to score on its final eight possessions.

We haven't had any Aggies lurking about in quite some time. Well, I hope they learned something from all this. For example: sometimes its best to just leave well enough alone. They just HAD to have Fran, didn't they? :lol: It looks like Fran left them in a lot worse shape than he left us.
