Boy, oh boy, is this rough. Running on a 4-0 run, everyone thought that maybe the Tigers had got this one in the bag. This game is important for HC Eliah Drinkwitz because if they manage to win this one, then the Tigers will get an open ticket to stand out in the SEC. But like some hopes and dreams, this one comes crashing down as well. The Aggies have taken away Eliah Drinkwitz’s fame, and the fans are riling up because of it.
Brandon Walker took to X on October 5th to share, “There’s a distinct possibility Missouri was overrated.” Now, here’s the thing, maybe the Tigers ain’t as bad as Walker makes it sound. If we check the live tape, although the Aggies are dominating with 34-7 on the board, there have been some errors that the refs have completely overlooked. Fans are not happy with this. “There’s a distinct probability Texas refs don’t allow Texas teams to lose in Texas,” one fan noted.

It feels like the Aggies are doing everything in their power to bring this one home. While the team hasn’t been on a bad run and has also managed to trample over a powerhouse like the Gators, you still gotta admit that the players have been a bit unhinged in this one.
Heck, Moose Muhammad III assaulted a ref and got away with it scot-free. College Football Report took to X to share the clip with the caption, “Texas A&M is getting away with everything today.” The team did not suffer any penalty for Moose’s action and it just feels odd.

The Tigers’ fans are in the hots right now. If given the chance, they would definitely storm the Aggies field to deliver some good old justice. For now, let’s just sit back and take a look at what they are saying on X.
Unfair advantage for the Aggies
“There’s a distinct possibility that the refs are throwing this game,” one fan was quick to point out. Could be true. From what we are seeing, the refs are doing everything in their power to save their home team.

“Does it have to do with how the refs started the game? I don’t have a dog in the fight but the refs pretty much put Missouri down 10-0,” another fan noted. While the Tigers look like they are making a comeback in the 3rd quarter, we all know that there is no way they are recovering from this.
Finally, a fan pointed out some obvious errors in terms of calls from the refs’ end. “Well the refs have given A&M the game look at the calls and missed calls I mean the missed pass interference on the first drive changes the entire tone of the game and then the following offensive drive your called for a lineman down field one of the most objective calls,” they noted on X. Well, as sad as it is, the Tigers are done for in this one.
