Mine: Ryan Swope. He's not really an under the radar guy exactly, but I think Saturday will be a big game for him. I expect Banks to go against Evans, and Evans inexperience will make it difficult for him to get separation. Ryan gets open better than most, guy is sneaky out there, and has really been coming on the last couple of weeks.

Bonus: Tony Hurd. I think MSU is going to attempt to expose the secondary as it's our weakest and thinnest unit on the defense, Tony Hurd will come in as an extra DB and hopefully will give good enough coverage to get pressure on Russell, and cause some turnovers.

Dude your Avi is

I think this has the potential to be a big game for EZ... they've got 2 shutdown type corners. Evans and Swope will definitely be keyed on.

without a doubt our inside receivers are going to need to have big games as Evans and EZ may have their hands full and I doubt we challenge outside as much as we have other teams this year.

I'd say Christine Michael though. He's finally gotten on board and has had two great games in a row (beyond running, blocking even). He showed signs of life vs La Tech but not until LSU did he really look like an elite back.

I think we're going to challenge them physically inside and their linebackers speed to the edge much like we did vs Aubie. Michael running inside will pose significant issues for them having to pick their poison.

I don't care who steps up as long as we curb stomp these idiots. The "grinders" are more annoying that the swamp kitties, gumps, and rebelgator combined......

I agree with you. He has been getting more touches in key situations. I like Malena but Christine runs with power.

This has the makings of a break out game for him. Wouldn't be surprised if he gets 12 to 15 carries. MS State has trouble with power runners.

My guy is Trey Williams, he's been getting more touches lately, and that kid is special. I'm pulling for him to run back a kick or take a screen pass all the way on Saturday. He can turn the game for us.

I'm going with CMike. He always runs angry but I really noticed a "gitty up" in his step for the first time this year in Auburn game.

Ben Malena will continue to be the muscle behind the A&M running game.

Is Malena really under the radar? He's our #1 RB and he did have 500+ yards and 5 TDs going into the game.

Maybe he's not under the radar in the traditional sense, but it's not a stretch to say he's definitely not the headliner for announcers. CMike is a known quantity. Trey Williams is a freak of nature. Ben is a workhorse who always surprises and impresses with his patience and power. Really reminds me of Cyrus Gray in a lot of ways.

I can't believe I am saying this...

Bertolet

The only reason I say this is because if Ags keep it close and/or pull it out, Bertolet will have played a key role with his foot.

Of course he could also be a big contributing factor the other way.

Got to stay positive.
