A&M has no business being favored against ASU. ASU outright.
Petrino is an a-hole, but give him an entire offseason to prepare and anything is possible. Louisville covers the spread against Auburn.
Wisconsin has no passing game and won't be able to run much against Bama's stellar front 7. Although Bama won't score much, either. Love the Under

ASU. A&M's fans are way too confident. They better hope that their team doesn't share the same sentiment.

Texas a&m has a good shot to upset Arizona State

I agree except according to Vegas it wouldn't be an upset. Both teams return a ton of starters, but A&M's defense will still be shitsville. Chavis is a coach, not a miracle worker.

Arizona State is most likely to win their game.
Wisconsin is second-most likely to win their game.
Louisville is least likely to win their game.

What's a&m favored by, 3? I wouldn't be surprised if ASU is favored by kickoff

So how can Muschamp make auburns D a factor automatically but chavis cannot? We have athletes. To say that after nearly a year a coach the caliber of Chavis can't make big strides with our D is asinine.

Alabama is the only one of the three that will win their game.

The western portion of Kentucky.

I KNEW chavis broke his contract!

Three Reasons:
1. Muschamp is a better DC than Chavis and that isn't really disputable.
2. Auburn also has better athletes than TAMU.
3. Auburn's defense wasn't as bad as TAMU's, so less of an incline is needed.

I'll take "None of the Above" Alex for $ 500.00

I have doubts about the immediate impact Muschamp will have as well. Your D, however, is filled mostly with players that Chavis and Co at LSU didn't really recruit.
Also, it's a bit of a stretch, don't you think, to assume everything that plagued you last year (which is a whole hell of a lot) will be fixed in the first game of the year against a very, very good opponent?
I'm not saying A&M sucks; just that I don't get them being the favorite, here. I'll be here to eat crow for ya if I'm wrong!

Sorry that you can't quote correctly. This is what I typed:

ASU is no slouch and the SEC is not invulnerable. Their fans and players are often delusional to no end. That's the kind of culture that is created there. They often have no respect for their opponents and play down to the level of their competition. Unfortunately for A&M, they can't out talent ASU.
Thank God that Les Miles went out and got some coaches that have tons of energy and want to destroy everyone in their path no matter the opponent. We don't settle for complacency at LSU.

There's a big thread on TexAgs and The Junction about players not buying into Chavis' scheme. I tried to warn y'all about your unrealistic expectations that you had for him and his defensive scheme. Just as you fools thought Kevin Steele was going to try to implement a 3-4 scheme with 4-3 personnel, you thought that Chavis was going to implement an aggressive flying off the line defense at A&M. Chavis' defense doesn't operate like that at all. You guys were begging for a scheme different from Synder's "read and react" scheme but you replaced him with a guy who operates the same exact way. Why do you think every year since the 2009 talent ran out at LSU the defense has gotten less and less sacks? LSU's scheme has been contain since 2012 and the defensive backfield had been bailing Chavis out.
Now that he's gone, Miles went out and hired Orgeron and Steele who teach aggressive, pressure, fly off the ball defenses.
