re: Which team looked the best opening weekend?

I would not have said this preseason but now I think it is a distinct possibility especially if they get in a shootout with aTm. The wildcard here is if aTm's young players choke on playing big #1... Strang things happen in CFB.

If they can weather the hype from the game and Johnny "Hancock" Manziel's hype, coach Sumlin will deserve a Nobel prize. I think A&M can score on anyone, but they need to avoid big mistakes against the champs or their confidence will shake. Bama can't be happy with their offense. I expect it to improve, but Oline chemistry is something that requires more than coaching. Usually it requires finding the right mix of players, I don't think they have it this year after leaning on it for the last 2 years.
