Yeah, but what matters is how they play this Saturday. They will have their chance to show whether the improvement we believe we’ve seen in the last couple of weeks is real or not.

I’ve gotta say, you’ve been awfully cocky this week. A&M is certainly capable of beating Alabama, in fact, they probably will. However, if Alabama does win, I hope you’ll be here after the game to show that you can take it as much as you can dish it.

Fair enough but Bama has no shortage of cockiness. That cockiness is based off of performance from previous years and not this one. You guys had a decent win against Ole Miss and that's really all so far. You have more holes than we are used to seeing in Bama and an unreliable QB which is very unusual for you.

If the A&M team from the 2nd half of the Miami game shows up we will lose. If A&M has a lot of turnovers and penalties they will lose.

The main reason for A&M's optimism is the only glaring disparity is the Aggie DL vs the Bama OL, that is not trivial because it is really freaking hard to overcome that matchup. I do think Bama is the best D A&M will have faced as well, nothing is going to be easy.

Straight up talent for talent I like A&M in this game. I also like how it is at home. Still Bama has a lot of weapons, a great D, and the GOAT on the sideline. It's really going to come down to execution and mistakes. I think a lot of Aggies are excited because this is the first time we have played Bama since 2013 that we are going in thinking it is an even game or better and they see the opportunity. Win this and we are in the Driver's seat for the West and this Board will lose its mind. Lose and Bama takes on that role and everything feels like normal.

Should be fun.
