Texas A&M. Give Johnny Football 30 days to rest and he's a step faster than the first time they played.

Playing A&M a week after LSU is very different than playing A&M with 30+ days to prepare.


Playing Bama on a neutral field is very different than playing Bama at BDS.

TAMU by 13 (kicker misses extra point).

yep saban would correct every problem just as he did from the 9-6 game and his team wouldn't be as drained considering they had a month off

Bama

You really do get better by playing in the SEC. You can't afford to run lazy routes, half arse block, etc., like you can in other conferences

Of course y'all would get the same amount of time off but the other team is overall more talented.

A month of prep for Saban = autowin


8-6 in bowls.

That is a retarded statement.

that actually just shows how far along saban has come. the man is a much better football coach than he was to start his career and is even better than he was at LSU.

if we look at the trends he is on a 3 game bowl win streak and none of those have been close.

Love A&M. Love JFF.

But it's hard to beat the same opponent twice in the same season in college football. Don't even have to ask LSU, ask Iowa State this year (beat Tulsa regular season but lost to them in their rematch).

Bama by 7.

1995 MSU Nick Saban is basically the same as 2013 Bama Nick Saban? Idiot.

Who cares about playing LSU the week before?

A&M had no bye game in 2012 and never used that as an excuse.

A&M's QB, offensive line, and WRs were all better than Alabama's. I have no idea how you can deny that. I would have taken my chances.

Agreed. And Alabama was what? The third road game in a row?

Yeah, y'all had some real battles against Sam Houston St. and South Carolina St.. Tough to recover from that medieval field battle shite fest.

Yup, and 5th overall away from Kyle Field. Ags should have been worn down by this point (and I firmly believe the '11 squad WOULD have been at that juncture), but A&M seemed to gather momentum as the season progressed.

Can't say I've seen that ever in an Aggie team.

Way to cherry pick opponents, retard. SC State was WAY early in the year, and SHSU was freaking AFTER the Bama game. Shut your face.

Time off is time off, and A&M had zero byes the entire season.

A&M is red hot, and Bama preps for bowl games better than any team I know. I would lean toward Bama for this game, but with A&M and JFF anything could happen.
