Holiday Bowl

I was pretty excited about the A&M vs. Cal Holiday Bowl tonight and had planned to write about that earlier, but I didn't get the chance to. Now, the game is in the fourth quarter and it is only going a little better than A&M's last post-season appearance in the Cotton Bowl two years ago. We came out strong and scored first, but the team didn't sustain the intensity the way it the did during the Texas game a month ago. The fact is, we're getting dominated on both sides of the ball tonight. I was obviously hoping for better. I think it's some of the same old problems that we have had all year long. We still have some things to work out if we want to be a contender in the Big XII next year.

UPDATE: The Aggies lose by a final score of 10-45. Bowl game underachievement continues.
