🏈 AL 25.5 pt favorite TxAM

[dcanddinky]

25.5 point favorites. If Aggies wouldn't have blown game to UCLA they would be top 25 and this would easily be the biggest game of the day.
Rocking crowd and decent offense gives them a chance to be in the game early. Still think we wear them down and cover. No Hand may hurt a little

Mond is improving but I think Pruitt has our guys shutting down the running game pretty well, and dialing up pressures to confuse Mond. He IS mobile but we're mighty fast. If we effectively shut down Christian Kirk I don't think they put up many points.

So far their defense has done OK against the run, but that's playing UCLA, Arky, and USCe - not great running games. I think we wear them down fairly easily with the run. Their pass defense has been BAD, but they have a couple of guys who give them a good pass rush.

Ultimately I think we pull away - and begin to cover late 3rd.

Roll Tide!

My kids have a high school event most of day Saturday near Fort Worth preventing us from making the trip to College Station. I'm gonna have to be creative to watch the game on Saturday.

I wish I could be in College Station for this game.

We have some good friends who are Aggie fans and live near College Station. Haven't talked with him yet but will by mid week. @planomateo how far are you from College Station?

I was one of those that thought 28 was too high. Open mouth, insert foot and chew thoroughly.

I'm in the same boat with you on that one.

@alabama mike & @BamaFan334 you two not the only one. I want to kick myself in the back side, because I was going to put money on Troy! :argh: I put most of my Bama Bucks on that USCw game! :rant2:

My big mistake is not taking Washington St. I have watched them improve all year on defense, not their norm to say the least with Mike Leach as coach. His teams could always put points on the board with anybody but stopping teams had been a problem. This year, so far, they are playing very good defense to go along with his Air Raid.

I didn't take them for the same reason. I didn't think his D could stop Darnold. Oh well...Good thing this isn't real money.
