No way around it - last second TD was classless


Sep 8, 2019, 9:35 PM

Jimbo, the Aggies, the media can TRY to label A&M's last-second trash TD a "way to practice for crucial situations in later games" - but that really wasn't it. It was a typical Jimbo Fisher classless move.

All the trash talking, swagger & guaranteed win claims from the players - that all eminates from the HC - & it's indicative of Jimbo's gutter style of coaching.

The guy was wide open in the endzone--easy score. Can't stand Jimbo, but any team would have done the same.

Dabo would NOT have called 2 timeouts in a game that was already decided. No way.

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

i think it's more dangerous than classless


Sep 8, 2019, 9:37 PM

lose a star for a meaningless td is not a wise move
try and play hard as hell withe backups

badge-donor-20yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

We had starters in trying to stop it


Sep 8, 2019, 9:43 PM

Would've been even worse had one of them gotten injured there.

Re: We had starters in trying to stop it


Sep 9, 2019, 7:27 AM

I didn’t verify the lineup but Dabo said postgame that the backups were in on that TAMU TD.

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

almost all starters on the last play and last few plays at


Sep 9, 2019, 7:45 AM

least- more subs earlier in the drive. I think Spector was in not sure who else back-up wise. Not sure who had TE responsibility either. It was a blown assignment by someone as 3 or 4 guys blitzed and 1 guy as supposed to stay with the TE. Only the coaches and players would know who that is based on the call.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Nah, I would always want my team to try and score when down


Sep 8, 2019, 9:39 PM

Nothing wrong with it

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

It’s our job to stop them. Can’t blame them


Sep 8, 2019, 9:40 PM

for continuing to play and get in the end zone although I will admit I’d have loved it if we could have stopped them.

It was pretty pathetic but it wasn't classless in any way

If you recall we attempted to do the exact same thing at the end of the Sugar bowl when we were trailing Bama by a similar 24-6 margin. We got stopped though.

Exactly. Up to us to stop them.

stop trying to score?

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Only if you have a big lead should you take


Sep 8, 2019, 9:58 PM

Your foot off the gas. There are a limited number of practice reps. If your team is down they should be trying to score, I don’t care how bad the score is.

What kind of leader of men would you be if you taught your team to give up?

We did the exact same thing to Jimbo in 2013 and I had 2 FSU fans sitting behind me in the stands complaining that Dabo was classless. To me it shows your team you don’t quit unit the clock runs out. Anyway GO TIGERS!!!

You don't give up - ever. If you are down, you keep on fighting.

Hey I'm disappointed that the 20+ point win margin streak ended too. Classless is a reach. We should've just stopped them and I'm sure CBV would agree too.

Their last drive was all about trying to improve and get ready for the rest of the season. Period.
It was a statement they wanted to send to themselves.

You never played competitive sports did you? It was our job as a defense to stop them and we didn't. Also, was Dabo classless for going for it on 4th & goal down by 17 in the last minute in the sugar bowl?

Go back and watch them running as much clock as possible


Sep 9, 2019, 9:54 AM [ in reply to so Jimbo should of had them do the "defeated" formation? ]

... until they got a couple of good plays against the reserves that put them in scoring position.

They were just happy to run the clock out when they were on their own side of mid-field.

Then Jimbo started calling time outs.

Why wasn’t he running “hurry up” and trying to score earlier?

Maybe he scores and gets the onside kick. Could have really made the game look close!!

Nothing classless about it.

Who cares? We won and it was meaningless. I am glad they tried that play. We didnt defend it well and now we have something to work on. Worked ou% fine for the long haul. I see nothing wrong with them trying to score. We had the option to stop them.and we couldn't. Oh well.

Re: No way around it - last second TD was classless

I agree. I thought it was tacky. Fisher wasn't even trying to win the game, otherwise he would have onside kicked afterwards. I'm not sure what the point was. I do know that Fisher should be thankful that he won't see Dabo's team again for a while, because Dabo has a long memory for stuff like that.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Onside kick?


Sep 9, 2019, 9:49 AM

Down 14 with 6 seconds left? OK that might have been classless.

So it's ok for us to still have Lawrence in the game and throwing the ball deep while up 21 and less than 6 minutes to go, but it's classless for A&M to try and score on the very next series?

Re: No way around it - last second TD was classless


Sep 9, 2019, 8:07 AM

Don’t have a problem with it but was curious why they went so slow at the beginning of the last drive. They were absolutely in no hurry. I thought they would have at least tried to score quickly. I guess Jimbo knew the results were sealed and just wanted to work on the QB.

Re: No way around it - last second TD was classless

I didn't like the fact that they scored but not because they tried. I was just hoping for a stop. I think TAM scoring that last TD was great motivation for this week. BV will have extra stuff to work on that will make a positive impact in the weeks to come. I expect the defense to be motivated this week in NY.
I didn't think it was classless at all. Go Tigers!

How was it classless? It was a big play for vegas and gamblers as well. I thought it was cool to watch our D still trying to hold and A&M not giving up even when the game was over. Maybe Jimbo had some friends who had money on the spread lol.
