Last night I was rooting for the Seattle Seahawks. Now, hold on. Before you start calling "Bandwagon" let me explain where I am coming from. I am a Utah State University Aggie. As I am repeatedly telling my coworker, I am an Aggie fan to the death. The Seattle Seahawks have two USU alumni on their team. Bobby Wagner and Robert Turbin. I support the Aggies. If you are still trying to call me a bandwagon fan then I don't think you know what a bandwagon fan is. In fact, you are a bandwagon fan of calling people bandwagon fans. Get off the wagon. Ok, rant over.
If you didn't catch it at anytime during the regular season, the post season or even during the Super Bowl, every time Bobby Wagner introduces himself he says the following: "Bobby Wagner. THE Utah State University." How about that? The man gives a national shout out to this "little" university in Utah. That, my friends, is what the Aggie nation is all about. We support each other and then we play our game.
Let's look at a few stats from last night, shall we?
First up, Bobby Wagner. Our friend Bobby recorded 12 tackles. 10 of those were by himself. On top of that, he also had one interception. All season long the media have been praising our boy Bobby on bringing the Seattle defense back to life. As I tweeted out last night, "Atta boy Bobby!"
Next, Robert Turbin. Our other boy Robert is Marshawn Lynch's backup so he doesn't get a whole lot of playing time. I'm fine with that. He'll get his turn. Going back to the stats we see that Turbin only had two carries and ran for 21 yards. His biggest run set up Seattle for what should have been the game winning touchdown. Our boy Robert Turbin did his part for his team.
Well played guys.
Show me a Scotsman who doesn't love the thistle.
Show me an Englishman who doesn't love the rose.
Show me a true-blooded Aggie from Utah who doesn't love the spot where the sagebrush grows.
