2. Stupid mistakes nearly cost the Aggies

This game was closer than it ever should have been and that is due to stupid errors that the Aggies made throughout the matchup. From a block that turned into a safety to turnovers on turnovers, the Aggies looked like a team that was not ready at all for play.

Will that continue through the rest of the schedule? Who knows, but tonight it was horrible to watch.

They play Alabama in a week and this kind of play won’t be acceptable on the road against the Tide. They will be made to pay for every single turnover and there won’t be any reprieve or time to make up for it because you will find yourself in a hole that you can’t crawl out of.
