Wow...we don't have a chance. Almost all edges go to aTm. We suck.

We are going to kill this team. This is the environment where LSU shines.

Nope. We wouldn't be in trouble at all. In order to make that many tackles, the other team's offense would have to run over 100 plays per game (and assuming that he makes almost every single tackle). That would mean that A.) A&M's offense can't stay on the field, and B.) that guys is making all those tackles AFTER the other team has made a first down.

Coaching
The Aggies have played in Cowboys Stadium twice in the past two seasons — two losses to Arkansas — while LSU will play its first game there. LSU’s Les Miles owns a national title and more big-game experience than relative college newcomer Mike Sherman. It boils down to this, however: The Aggies are more fired up to play in the Cotton Bowl than the Tigers.


This makes no sense. So as I understand, A&M has the COACHING edge because:

1. They've played (AND LOST TO) Arky at Jerry World twice

2. Miles owns a national title and has more big-game experience than Sherman

3. The Aggies are more fired up

Nice.

this analysis seems like something i would find in bleacher report, not a major newspaper.

In the words of my Aggie buddy this morning "This is our Super Bowl."
