Re: Interesting Schedule Nugget from the Twitterverse

There isn’t any team closer to Logan that I’d rather play than A&M other than A&M- maybe TCU/Baylor but that’d be a very dumb clue. . I hope we're not scratching the A&M game. I was really looking forward to traveling down there. A&M game is staying. Mystery team is not Oregon or Utah. Utes won’t p...

At least NMSU is FBS.

Dominic Tatum was playing with the second team and it was good to see him back out there. Ajani Carter...
