We're about 35 minutes away from kickoff of the Texas A&M-Colorado game in College Station, and I could probably hand count the number of people in the stands at Kyle Field. Late-arriving doesn't even begin to describe this. Traffic appears to be moving easily down George Bush Parkway too, so either the Aggie faithful are enjoying some extended tailgating or we're going to have a small crowd.
I was thrown off a bit by a visitor in the press box a while ago. A guy in a green jacket walked down press row distributing flyers for the Gator Bowl. Wow, didn't expect that. This guy must be low man on the totem pole to be the bowl's representative at a game between a 3-5 A&M team and a struggling 4-4 Colorado team. Both teams still have a chance to become bowl eligible, but the Aggies are going to have to pull off a miracle against either Oklahoma or Texas to make it happen. Let's see if they can string two wins together for the first time this season first.
