I could be wrong but there's something over there that just breeds mediocrity. I see them being something like ole piss and moo state typically are like.


The style of offense that A&M runs does not lend itself to a great defense. Now, I understand they are trying to change that somewhat. While we all grew tired of limited pressure from the DL and the whole 3rd and chavis and end of half/game issues, I do think he will be a big upgrade for A&M. Hell, if they could have what LSU has had, even with the issues, I think they would be very happy.

The supposed logic of these types of statements the last month or so continue to appear, but is rather baseless. Nothing precludes a team from recruiting great defensive players and pairing great D with any form of offense. LSU played ball control with limited scoring and it didn't help the D win games. Bama threw the ball a lot in 2014 and had a good D, and the O won them a lot of games. If Oregon actually recruited better defenders and had some quality depth they might have had a chance vs OSU. It is what you want to see.
