Comments from a poster on a Texas A&M board...His thoughts on looking for positives in the game
In light of our loss to OU, I know that there will be a great deal of potbanging, handwringing and negativity. We are all disappointed by the lopsided loss, but we must stay positive. Following are the positive things that I will take from the game and focus on during the next week as we prepare for Missouri.
-We had a relatively balanced offensive attack, 52 yards total, 32 yds passing, 20 rushing. -Pegram was perfect, no missed FG's or PAT's. -We were able to hide the fact that Pegram lost his kicking tee. -We had no fumbled punts. -Jacob Young qualified to be listed for NCAA season punting statistics in only one game. -Team lost no game balls. We returned home with same number of footballs as we took. -No players lost the decals on their helmets. -Coach Fran was able to leave the game a little early to visit with friends from Kansas. -Yell Leaders left game much more comfortable than usual as no "squeezing" was required. -Found out that Stoops has mercy since he could have easily reached 100 points. -We help keep White's Heisman hopes alive. -We are finally getting regular mention on ESPN Sports Center.
These are the initial positive thoughts that come to mind. I am sure that some of you have more. Please share any that you might have as we all need to "come together" during this time of grief.
