A buddy of mine is a huge A&M fan and he was blabbering this week about how manziel's old days of playing RB make him much tougher than most QB's. He said Johnny doesn't believe in sliding or avoiding contact very often. How long do you think he makes it against our D if he keeps this philosophy?

I have a $100 bet with a Aggies fan that thinks be gets 100 yards rushing I've talked to several that think he gets at Least 70.

He's a tough kid and fast, so he mostly gets glancing blows. If he takes a few full force shots this Saturday, it could be bad.

He is a tough kid and I actually enjoy watching him. He is a baller who can take a hit. Not saying he's going to make it to the NFL after playing in the SEC, its going to take a toll on his body.

Making it through this game is not going to be a problem for this guy. They are going to dump quick, screen, jet sweeps..etc, to keep us off of him. My guess is they have limited his running somewhat due to our size and speed.

I predict Papa Loston will come flying in and knock himself and Johnny out of the game.

Two flags will be thrown... one for the hit and other for his intentions.

In all seriousness, bias feelings aside... I have a lot of A&M friends and i've been saying all week that it would be a shame if Manziel got hurt for the season because he's too proud to slide.

He carries the ball WAY far out from his body... and I'm positive he will have to take at least one play off.

if he plays that style of ball on Saturday, it's going to be VERY interesting....how many turnovers do you think we might get as well?

I think the LSU D will be able to control him most of the game, but I also think he will break 2 or 3 for scores. Hopefully, that is all it will take.

Never underestimate your opponent! We should win but give this guy his due. I've had an eye on them all year and he is very capable of putting up better numbers than Drischoll*.

unless he grows about 50 pounds, no way. The only qb with legs i have seen give chavis problems was Newton.

You have to cathc him to hurt him. Very few have suffered. LSU will catch him. He needs to tuck that ball in.
