Easily A&Ms defense is head and shoulders above Arkansas
Arkansas gave up 100 total yards more to TCU than 0-3 Iowa State did? wow.

La tech and Texas st shouldn't even be mentioned. It will come down to the better offense.

Arkansas is garbage.

Aggy is much stronger defensively with an improved run game from last year.
This coupled with stability at the quarterback position = 2 score win.
Objectively speaking of course

The Arky players are working hard this year, but they could very easily be 1-2 with losses to both TCU and La Tech.
They could play really well and somehow beat A&M, but these kids just don't seem talent laden like last year's team.

Your entire post is so bad I'm not even going to comment on it

Other than maybe RB (since Whaley hasn't played much yet) the talent level is basically the same.

You played LA Tech's backup QB, their starter has played their last two games so including their averages is kind of ridiculous

Yards per play & yards per carry are better stats because they equalize comparing team who face more/less drives.
Posted on 9/22/16 at 10:39 am to Killean
There is no comparison

The whole premise is flawed because you're looking at averages for three games, and one of those games is the one you're comparing it to. And, in PV's case for example, PV played two bad FCS schools and Texas A&M, so of course A&M held them well below their averages when the other two opponents were Texas Southern and Alabama A&M.

Your improved running game is playing into Arkansas strongest run stopping DLine
which returns intact. Bama or LSU neither had 100 yard RB's against this dline
which returns and adds Sosa Agim, Austin Capps. We too have a QB that knows are system since he grew up in it and has been a gamer. Aggies this will be a better game than you think! Arkansas will easily be the best team you have played and we are bringing 40000 fans with us.

No doubt. Should be a good game. I think Arky wins. AGs have no shot
