Texas A&M fans are arguably the best in the nation but the 12th Man has been getting disrespected lately and the most recent occurrence has come courtesy of the Missouri football program.
“The noise at practice is actually louder” Tigers senior quarterback Brady Cook said. “They put these two speakers pretty much two-feet right behind me and, I mean, you can’t hear anything, it’s loud. In stadiums, it’s loud, but it’s like a surrounding kind of distant loud, so it’s a little different. I think it’s just as loud or louder and tougher to communicate.”
Head coach Mike Elko was not amused by Cook’s comment during the Aggie Football Hour this week.
“It has been interesting that we’ve had people call out Kyle Field a little bit,” Elko said. “I heard their quarterback say today that it’s louder in practice than it is at Kyle Field. To me, that’s a challenge to the 12th Man.”
The No. 21 Aggies host the No. 9 Tigers at Kyle Field on Saturday at 11 a.m. on ABC.
