Because we play at their place and they are a pretty good squad, by history, so far.

obviously you are a biased hater of either Jimbo, A&M or both because 2016 was sooooo long ago, clearly 1 bad season cancels out 8 years of winning 80% of the time.

Of course past results do not guarantee future success so maybe he won’t do well. But early signs point towards him making A&M a lot better and therebis more to it than simply looking at the results of 4 games.

And you also don'r care that his starting QB gets taken out for the season in week 1? You trying to downplay Jimbo's coaching accomplishments is fricking hilarious.

while some of you consider the 4-0 stat to be the only relevant stat, actual statistics, like passer rating, 3rd down conversion %, redzone effeciency, rushing offense, and the defensive ratings of those stats, play a large part in predicting winners.
Doesn't mean they are right all the time, but over time, they tend to be correct more than they are wrong.


You will quickly be labeled a non-fan or poser.

Overtime they do matter...however they don’t matter after 4 games when Lsu has played two top 15 defenses...

not surprised at all they would be favored.

home game, Mond has been very good. Jimbo is a good coach they lost to bama and played Clemson incredibly tight. they are a good team not a gimmie win at all.

He was 10-3 in 2016 and won the orange bowl.

so i PRAY you are not using that year in your argument. So assuming you're not that dumb...

2017 - he coached 11 games
2018 - he's coached 4 games

Auburn is 22, so who is the other one?

Also, why do our offensive stats against the two "cupcakes" look just as bad as our season averages?

I honestly think this will be our toughest (maybe lackluster is a better word) remaining game. At A&M, they will be pumped up to play us and, based on this year so far, I don't think we will be pumped up to play them.

LSU will be fired up for both Georgia and Bama.
