I spent a summer in Bryan, Tex., but I never heard of two particular traditions, both of which seem to involve the Corps of Cadets. One is the Aggie Squeeze, which I'm prone to doubt since there are tons of pictures floating around the net of the exact same scene. Purportedly, it's a way for the Corps to display empathy for the team during a difficult part of the game.

The other is too embarrassing to mention in polite company.

Are these traditions real or are they just alleged by A&M's rivals?

OK, curiosity has gotten the better of me: what's the other tradition? Feel free to PM me the answer.

No...it reminds them of our BCS Bowl game and the fact they've never been.

Nothing others allege would match what the Aggies would admit with pride.
