Two years ago our D was pretty salty, then we lost key Srs. We now have Garret and some really good young guys and recruits that will make a difference. The real question is whether Snyder will know how to use them.

If good Bo shows up and our defense plays like it did yesterday, we will roll. Those are big ifs though.

It wouldn't be surprising. West is wild this year

It's called hope. Unlike the East where there is no hope. Y'all just suck across the board and will for years to come.

I think Ole Miss will be able to establish their best run game as of late vs aTm and Bro will definitely open up then.

You realize the East has won more SEC championships than the West right? Also the East has two of the winningest problems of all time. It will take a truly magical season for A&M to crack the top 3 of their own division. Keep hoping cause its gonna be a while.

OM D will be there to carry us through this game and A&Ms D is so bad it will let our O get going and really hit our stride.


I think you will be unpleasantly surprised how badly the crowd takes Wallace and your offense out of the game.

The noise can't escape any more and it is the largest stadium in the SEC.

Wallace does not do well in hostile environments.

I think HH just nailed it.

We don't need all that much of a run game to open up our passing game. We got it done against Boise and Bama with only 76 yards rushing total.

TAMU's rushing defense isn't as good as Bama's, so we'll run better. Around 150-180 yards at 4.5 YPC is all it really takes for Bo to be able to open up the passing game.

Also, Bo is a run threat even if not near the one that Dak is. Freeze showed some wrinkles against Bama that involved designed QB runs that we hadn't seen yet this season. He's been handcuffing the offense until SEC play, I believe.

As long as the team can avoid the emotional hangover, we win this one.

2012 in Death Valley disagrees with you.

But yeah he needs to grow up a little more in hostile environments.

UM can't fun the ball & A&M can't stop the run; otoh, A&M can't run, either.

IF that remains true, UM will win because they have a pass rush.

He does fine against non-GOAT teams on the road.

He did fine in JHS last season and was stellar in Death Valley in 2012. His other tough road games were two great Bama teams and 2012 UGA. TAMU is none of those teams.

This is another good point. TAMU's rushing attack isn't anywhere close to Bama's - who we just held to 100 yards less than their season average and around 3.7 YPC.

He's thrown 11 interceptions on the road vs. SEC West opponents, including 3 in Death Valley in 2012.

He barely beat Arkansas in 2012 in Fayetteville and lost to Mississippi State in Starkville.

Wallace is 1-5 in SEC West road games, and the only victory was 30-27 at Arkansas

You're right. We're gonna lose. Bo sucks.
