What are you seeing from A&M boards so far? Here's a few...

[CadaverDawg]

"MSU has a good front 7 but not overly big".

Huh?

"We are going to make that 250 lb MLB run wind sprints"

Good point, we may see a lot more Wells, Jackson, and ? At LB together next week.

And of course..."They gave up 34 to UAB and 29 to LSU, so they won't be able to stop us"

"We match up much better with MSU than we did Arkansas"

"They run a Spread option with a lot more option in it"

Wut?

"Their offense is a very similar style to Rice's offense"

Face palm

[DudyDawg]

Would imagine we see a lot more bmack, wells, and five DBs. Wouldn't be surprised to see Jackson get lots of snaps. He made some good plays in the pass game against UAB that I can remember. Bmack is too valuable in the blitz and run stop to take out very much to stop the pass. If anything, we will run 3 down with Preston over the center to keep McKinney on the field

[I seen it dawg]

We are going to see tortuous hell pain inflicted on their soft ass is what we are going to see.

[msstate7]

IMO you don't take an NFL lb off the field. I just pray hill runs next week. BM will destroy him. Hill runs like TR. He always seems to take a big hit bc he's so uncoordinated

[I seen it dawg]

I'm confident our defense will be just fine.

[msstate7]

Up until yesterday, I thought the biggest advantage would be their offense vs our defense. I've changed my mind. Our offense will dominate this game. They can't stop the run without 8 in the box and then they can't stop pass

[TrapGame]

With the multiple weapons we have on offense (see that Bo Bounds?) A&M's defense will be hard pressed to stop us. Dak is better than Kenny Hill and it's gonna be blatantly obvious Saturday. Our defense will be the best they've faced thus far and Kenny Hill will be pressured like nothing he's seen yet.

This.

I am confident that ESPN will play this up as a battle between the two best QB's in the SEC. Dak will get even more press when it becomes obvious what the answer to this question is.

[Political Hack]

it's going to be an ugly wake up call for them.

[Offshore Dawg]

it's going to be an ugly wake up call for them.


Hack I do hope that you are right, Dawgs win this and I think Bama will be all that stands in the way of getting to Atlanta.

[defiantdog]

Too bad McKinney has great closing speed and a 40 inch vertical. Not to mention we have a cheetah as an OLB. If our db's hold their own, our defense should be fine. Richie "The Beard" Brown ain't too bad at MLB either. He destroyed LSU when they tried to run a screen.

[DudyDawg]

Their 247 board has a thread about Bo or Maty being worse haha. Bo is running away with it

[Dawgfan77]

To me the question is can we get pressure and stop the run with 4 or 5. We are going to have to drop 6 into coverage or we send some corner blitzes and make sure or lb can cover crossing routs. They are going to move the ball and score but as ark did make them drive the length of the field and get pressure on hill. Ark lost for two reasons 1 ark is one dimensional cannot pass but are really good at running the ball and AM stopped the run and won field position. 2. Ark gave up to many long balls. Got to have safety help deep cannot commit more than 5 to the LOS

[CadaverDawg]

I think one of Sumlin's faults as a coach is that he gets very greedy. Yesterday Arkansas was focused on the pass on defense, and allowed big runs when A&M ran it. But A&M barely ran it at all. If Sumlin would have exposed that and forced Arkansas to creep up, their passing game would have been more successful. Does he learn from it? Who knows...but I would rather keep our safeties deep to help out on the deep ball, than have them creeping up to shut down the run. If Sumlin sees it and starts running the ball, that's fine, because he won't do it long bc he's too greedy. And worst case scenario it shortens the game and takes A&M out of their quick strike pace. Just a thought.

[DudyDawg]

Hope we see lots of market, Hughes and cox playing than Evans and Coman. Those two are great against the run, but seem to struggle against the pass

[CadaverDawg]

Here is their prediction thread. Also, they have a thread called ""Say mean things about MSU" like we typically do about our opponents.....but surprisingly several of their fans are saying they like us.

Is this the week we see McKinney at DE? Of Collins is designing a package to get pressure on Hill, that 250 lbs LB, could turn into he'll off the edge.

[evan_aggie]

I love it when fans get this arrogant and matter-of-fact. It makes thread bumps much more fun..see South Carolina and Arkansas.


By the way, when not playing us, i always root for MSU and feel that our disgust of Univ. Of Texas and Ole Miss are for similar reasons...those wine drinking, tea cookie eating, hoddy toddy, producers of nothing little pricks.

Yea I know, it was great when we bumped LSU's threads too.

And I used to pull for A&M before they joined the SEC, but many of the Aggies have turned in to a cocky bunch that takes after Manziel since joining the league. So I don't pull for you guys anymore. You guys won't pull for us anymore either after Saturday I'm betting.

[DudyDawg]

Pulled for them until I went to our game there and then spent the summer in Houston. One of the most insane and weirdest group I've ever been around. Like, literally insane

There's a difference in arrogance and logical well educated conclusions. Based on everything I've seen thus far from A&M and how shitty the East is, I see this one getting out of hand Saturday. A&M is who I thought they were. Arkansas is the bottom of the barrel in the West, period. USC is proving to be inept in all areas. Hack, myself and others are just simply reiterating what has played out thus far in the season. Barring a bulldog turnover fest, this one will get ugly.

[CadaverDawg]

"MSU played the game of their lives against LSU. That won't happen again. On the other hand the Ags played their worst game. I expect the Ags to come out crisp and on fire on offense. MSU won't know what hit them, much like two years ago."

I always love the old, "you played your best ever in a win while we played our worst" argument. Great, sound, logic there Aggie

Like someone said earlier...every fan base has their own delusional fans. Even when i said we'd be favored by 4 or 5, I was quick to swing 10 pts after Arkansas and say MSU should be favored by 6.

By the way...TexAgs posters in the freebie section are notoriously idiotic. Most rational posters are in the paid section which weeds out most tshirt fans and numbnuts.

So, you'll win by 3TD right? How about you put your money where your mouth is and put $20 on it with 21 pt spread? I have paypal so it should be easy.

Evan, I (being married to an aggie for 18 yrs and living in Houston) feel like I know the aggie fan base better than most on this board. A&M and MSU have very similar histories and fan bases. In the last 20 years or so with the 10% rule in Texas, I do fee the aggie fan base is changing somewhat (not as many old ags). That being said people, most A&M people I know are as good as any fans I know, and as down to earth. A&M does have some unique traditions that were mostly born out of the Corps of Cadets when it was an all male college. These often seem strange or weird to other schools, but I respect that they have saved them. As far as sports, A&M has been under UT's shadow for the last 100 years, and now that they have left the Big XII, they are stretching their wings a little bit. And, because they have been more successful in SEC Football than most predicted (including their own selves) the most vocal and "crazy" fans have become more vocal. I predict as we win more this year we will too. Compared to TX and OM, give me A&M fans every time.

Evan, why would anybody accept that bet when they can get a far better line elsewhere. Doesn't matter what they think the score will be.

Now, if you were to offer odds that equal the extra points, then you can get some respect for offering a bet like that. How would you feel about offering 20-1 odds with that 21 points?

LiterallyPolice just said he'd take that bet, so ask him. Some of you guys are sure you'll win by 21 so why not put money on it. Doing 20 to 1 is basically admitting that you seriously doubt you'll win by 21 plus.

I will admit your defense held them more in check in the run game but that was more on Bulimic wanting to pass much more in the second half and having a lot more 3rd & long downs and not rushing as much on 1st & 2nd downs. Confused me a bit.

Yes, we now see how insignificant that opening night win at USC is/was. USC now has two losses and gave up 34 to Vandy, 35 to UGA, and 23 to East Carolina. They aren't who we thought they were before the season. We have also seen how inept the East is.

Football is all about matchups and I just see a lot of mismatches with our secondary and their scheme. Everyone says "get pressure on Hill"... How, when he gets rid of it so quick. They beat people with 15 yard routes, not 40 yard routes. I think we can beat them but they worry the devil out of me.

I'm with you, Preach. I'm not nearly as confident as some. Hopefully Collins put together quite a gameplan during the off week. We had a good plan vs them last year, and we somewhat held Manziel in check. If we hadn't made so many Special Teams miscues and turnovers, we would have very possibly won that game...but we didn't get it done.

My biggest concern is our secondary..I know they are capable of playing great because they played excellent down the stretch last year and are all back....but we haven't seen it this year. Is it because we were prepping for LSU and stacking the box? Or was it because we just simply aren't that good in the secondary? If the answer is the first one, we will beat A&M Saturday. But I'm not convinced yet.

[DudyDawg]

I agree preacher. If we didn't have this off week, I would think we have about a 25% shot. But since we do, and since we have Collins, I think it's more like 50/50. They still scare the hell out of me, but we can beat them. If we tackle, we will be okay. Miss a few tackles and let a 3 yard route turn to 12 and more, you're in trouble. Think it's that simple. Collins will have te game plan, but can we execute it and tackle

Just read this thread, and it's amazing how biased fans are and how far they will go to find a stat that proves their superiority.

I think what other teams consistently don't realize is that most of problems in the secondary have been with our second team in or when we are trying to milk to clock to get the game over with.

I know we only beat LSU by 5 points, but that game wasn't close. All those passing yards they got came when we were trying to run the clock out; not when we were actively attempting to play real defense.

Exactly why I called that Evan douche out earlier. Don't buy that phony bullshit, those strange little Aggie F'ers think they're going to roll into town and beat our ass. If/when we beat them, they won't be talking that "we like you" shit. They were just saying that earlier in the day because we haven't beaten them in SEC play yet. Give em a loss or two and they'll hate us just like everybody else that beats them.

It's much better to be hated in this league than loved. Croom was loved by opponents because they kicked his teeth in once every fall. Nobody would even know who Dillon Day was if Croom was coaching him.

I'm glad we are being disliked again, means we're doing something right on the field.

Same here. I had chalked it up as a loss after their usce game. Now that game makes a little more sense, but that doesn't mean it's a good match up for us. Out d should be better than theirs and out offense should give them lots of trouble, but I can't shake he feeling that we're going to throw away a few series with questionable play calling and bad snaps or miscalls on the line and that will be the difference in the game.

[TXDawg]

You should at least acknowledge our 2nd half adjustments. Arkansas averaged something like 2.9 ypc in the 2nd half. We changed some of our D line.

Yeah, but you were stacking 10 - 11 in the box to accomplish that. You were very susceptible to the play-action pass. The few times Arky went to it, their TE was running in space with no defenders within 15 yards of him. Why they didn't go PA in OT is beyond me. If you have to stack the box like that against us to stop the run, Dak will be the Heisman frontrunner by this time next week.

[Dawgcentral]

I think we run the ball well. I think we stop the run well. Wat I see happening is us having a lead in the 4th and that's where my concerns reside.

Looking back, we seem to relax. I'm not talking about our mess at the end of the LSU game. I'm looking at our tendency to relax vs Northwestern at the end of the half, and other games where we gave up points with time running out.

I do feel like with the game plan and attitude that I expect from the staff and the players, we win this game by 6-9 points.
