Texas vs the Ags

Texas is comfortably favored to beat Texas A&M on Friday and so advance to the Big 12 Championship against Nebraska. As Longhorn Nation reminds, the last time the Ags beat the Longhorns, Colt McCoy was in the eighth grade. In Kansas City, we’ll see something, probably, like a much tighter game for one thing. I just hope it doesn’t lead to playing Boise State in a bowl. From the Rose Bowl to Boise State in one year would be too much to swallow.

We’re taking Mr. Boy to see the A&M Corps of Cadets march up Congress Avenue to the Capitol Friday morning, something he hasn’t seen since he was two. I’ll post the best picture from that. Their band is good and it’s always fun to see the seniors with their riding boots and swords. Some of those boys could be lieutenants in Iraq or Afghan this time next year.
