If Texas would build a decent highway or interstate between 35 and 45 that crosses near Bryan it would make trips there easier......


I say we need an Interstate spur route from I49 in Alexandria thru Bryan to connect with I10 between San Antonio and El Paso. It would solve a lot of problems for us.

Maybe Cassidy can get it done!!

Ole Miss. They are very good. I know they laid an egg against KY, but they are very very talented. Would not surprise me if they run the table including beating Ga.

But A&M definitely has the best overall defense and the best defensive coaching we will have seen to this point.

However I watched State put up some decent offensive drives and they are terrible


While State is terrible, they have somewhat found their footing offensively.

I sat in their stadium in 1960 and 1962. All they did was stack on to the original seats which were horrible with very little visiblility of the field. They did a decent job on the endzones.

They have to have the largest student participation in the SEC. All of the east stands are aggies.

I think physicality is the key word. A&M runs the ball at near service academy ratios. They hit you with a lot of different running schemes too. This is going to be the game that tells us about our front 7. Can they hold up for 4 quarters of a team that is content to run the ball for 3 to 4 yards a rush and just wear you down over the course of the game? I think rotation upfront is going to be important early in the game for us to play well in the fourth quarter.

The bad news: They're the second best team we've played yet behind Ole Miss
The good news: Their defense isn't as good as Ole Miss or South Carolina *and* the strengths of their defense are well countered by our offense

It's going to be a dog fight in there but we should win it.

Statistically OM D is better. They gave up almost 400 yards to Arkansas at home.

We didn't play Arkansas at home.

And we held them to 17 points. An important aspect of our team is that they give up a lot of yards, but they don't give up a lot of points. It's very much so a bend-but-don't-break squad.

Probably as good as ole Miss overall

I feel like it’s a toss up between the three (lsu, aTm,ole miss). Could probably say that about a lot of teams right now. Still so wide open.

We must get a running game going early so Nuss doesn’t have to throw it 50 times. I wish Hilton would come back to get their safeties more than 10 yards off the ball.
We need to control the run and get them in 3rd and 8+. If they get a lot of 3rd and 3-4 yards we are in trouble.
This will be an old fashion SEC game won and loss in the trenches.

This might be the best team they've faced this season.

Honestly Ole miss could have won. OM may be demoralized into quitting now, but they played a game to win. But I also think we're better this week than then, too. So...any given Saturday.
