JOHNNY FOOTBALL!
What a great weekend. Ever since I was born I was a Texas A&M fan. Both my parents were Aggies, my uncles and aunts were Aggies, every Coll was a die hard Aggie. We bleed maroon. Even being a Purdue student I've watched all the A&M football games, and this year, Johnny Maziel has caused watching it to be so much better than past years. Manziel is a red-shirt freshman who was not even planning on being the starting quarterback this season. Three months later he goes in to Tuscaloosa and leads the Ags to beat the number one team in the country, Alabama. The most interesting part is that Texas A&M doesn't allow freshman to be interviewed, so he is somewhat anonymous. He takes the field, destroys defenses, then walks off the field without a word said to the news. He's a machine, and now that he's beaten Alabama is up to number two on the Heisman watch, behind Colin Klein of Kansas St. We'll see if Johnny Football can come out firing the rest of the season, giving the Aggies a great finish to the season, and if he can, perhaps he can take the Heisman.
