  • Appalachian State vs Texas A&M was a game off most radars when the sun rose on College Football's week two Saturday, but by the time it set College Station had been turned upside down after the Mountaineers stunned the Aggies 17-14 at Kyle Field. On Late Kick Live Ep 301 Josh Pate discussed the loss, what it means for each program, and what changes Jimbo Fisher needs to make to the Texas A&M program. With a tough stretch of games coming up, can the Aggies pull the nose up in time to salvage a good season? What does this say about the offense being run and adjustments not being made?

Except for the lightning in a bottle that was Manziel and Evans and 2020, we have been an 8-4 and 7-5 team. We have all the resources and an insanely loyal fan base and we score 1 touchdown against a Sunbelt team that has one 4 star recruit.

    As an FSU fan, this is very bittersweet. Everything always comes full circle. Jimbo left us in a dirty way. And in true Jimbo fashion he's having the same thing play out over there in College Station. Has a plethora of talent, every single year, yet always finds ways to lose in inexplicable ways. Slowly but surely he's bringing that program down. At FSU he started our great, 2010-2013 were his golden years. After that everything was downhill. There are 2 particular players who saved Jimbo and made us look alot better than we really were. And that was Jameis Winston and Dalvin Cook. It's sweet to watch this play out because how dirty he left us, didn't give a shit about us and left a terrible awful culture. And now we are starting to right the ship, it's only taken us 5 years! So it's nice to see Jimbo take himself out like this. He models his game after Saban, but the difference is Saban has evolved with the times. Changed his philosophy and moved himself out of the way and gotten coordinaters in there that know more than him about the current landscape of CF. Jimbo is the exact opposite, refuses to evolve and insists on using his archaic philosophy, refuses to remove himself, he needs to get out of the way and get a real play caller in there. We FSU fans love to see it!! And what's funny is that just this past off-season I'm pretty sure they paid Jimbo a shit load more money!!

      I’ve been a Seminole fan for almost 35 years and you said it perfectly. He left the cupboard bare in 2017 - didn’t even bother to recruit or call people back, and he knew in September of that year that he was going to leave.
      I could tell in 2015 that the OL was going downhill fast, but Dalvin Cook took that offense on his back and won a lot of games for the Noles. When he and Derwin James left, Jimbo had some questions to answer.
      He blamed it on not having enough money and needed better facilities like Clemson had - boosters didn’t give him what he wanted so he dipped. Now he’s in College Station with money coming out of his ears - what is his excuse now?

Look at the plays he runs when we’re facing bama, Florida, Clemson, North Carolina, etc… and then look at the plays we run against app state, and literally any non conference game. Side note, game planning like that effects the way the way players play. Watch what we do next weekend against Miami, it probably is gonna look nothing close to the plays we were running last week.

    I was an assistant coach and worked for offensive minded head coaches. They will NOT easily hand over offensive coordinator's duties to anyone. Many times guys like that are the slowest to change of any coaches. Offensive line coaches and Defensive coaches are usually early adopters and will change if it benefits their craft and helps them win. Offensive coordinators and QB coaches are notoriously "little professors". They know what they know and won't get out of their comfort zone. This is what I see in Jimbo. I was at a coaching clinic at Samford University in 1990 where he was speaking as an assistant for Terry Bowden. He hasn't changed since then.

    That video of the celebration reminds me greatly of how downtown Uvalde, Texas was when the San Antonio Spurs beat the Miami Heat in the NBA Finals in 2014. People took to the streets, trucks went flying by with Spurs flags, the bars were madhouses, and cars everywhere honked their horns in celebration. The town square was alive with joy as the Spurs came back in 2014 after falling short in 2013 and got the job done. It was a great experience to watch and be a part of.

    To add to your point. Ohio State had a terrible defense last year, Ryan Day literally cleaned house. Fired many different defensive coordinators, and made a home run hire in Jim Knowles.

    All 3 SBC teams +15 point underdogs.....

He screwed AM, so they should return the favor.

      I'd say the opposite. Notre Dame and A&M would be in according to an expanded field. Based on rankings. Alot of teams could do what App and Marshall did... obviously. Beating those two teams doesn't qualify as entry to the CFP. We get blowouts in a four-team field. Expansion is going to generate even more blowouts. How is that a good thing?

    Jesus….JP said everything I was thinking about Jimbo. He’s right on the money about Jimbo not wanting to lose his grip of the offensive philosophy. If you pay attention to the way Saban runs things during the game i feel like he’s just over seeing everything but not necessarily directly involved. More like just holding his coordinators accountable. That’s what a head coach should be. But every offensive minded head coach is similar to Jimbo in how it’s their way or the highway when it comes to offense.
