metafour 4,969 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 This actually doesn't set up to be a good matchup for us at all. Its going to take a lot of mistakes by Mond, and/or a freakish game by Bo in order for us to win this game. Texas A&M is extremely good at both running the football, and defending the run. Our run defense does not look strong this year and has been exposed in multiple games, and you're asking a team that can't really operate on offense without running the football to do so against a very good run defense with its best RB banged up, AND the OL banged up? s*** happens and we seem to have Texas A&M's number, but you really have to be wearing some prescription-grade orange and blue glasses to see any football-related reason to conclude that we're going to win this game. Its not like momentum or "edge" is leaning in our favor either - Texas A&M is playing for an outside shot at the playoffs, and we just came off a game against Alabama wherein our team AND coaches looked like they didn't want to be there.

Yeah, the optimism about this game on here is confusing as Tuscaloosa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Mond and A&M looked sloppy vs. LSU last week doesn't even swing the needle in our favor either. If anything, that game probably woke them up and they come in more motivated to redeem themselves against us. We are not a good team at all, and it looks like the wheels are starting to wobble. So whereas A&M is likely to play motivated, there is a very real chance that our team could implode. And none of that factors in the reality that we just aren't that good to begin with. We already played a team this season with this combination of run offense + run defense - Georgia. They slapped us silly with a walk-on QB. Its going to take a big collapse by A&M for them to actually lose to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gr82b4au 5,568 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 The only thing really in our favor in this game is that it is at home. Bo Is a completely different quarterback at home. That being said we are not as good as them and our defense is really struggling at stopping anything right now. It will take a monumental effort by us and some turnovers by them to win.

On paper and based on results of this season, the game should swing to favor the Aggies. I feel like both of these programs truly mirror each other in how inconsistent we both are. Malzahn's back firmly against the wall? A big game at home? O we are def winning this. Malzahn does the absolute bare minimum to keep his job and not a single iota more.

autan 737 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Gonna let my heart pick this one. 29-27 Good Guys as Mond misses 2-point conversion on last play. Mond reminds of Bo more than any other SEC QB. Can look like an All-American one game and stink it up next game on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbone1430 1,346 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I think this may be the game seal Gustav's fate if he loses. If he wins all bets are off. We just are a good team that got lucky quite a few times this year. My heart says 30-28 good guys but my head says 34-27 TAMU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
