23-13 Aggy
I have to go set up for hunting season, but if that falls through I may fly to Montgomery and figure it out from there.

I wasn't planning on it, but now that it is game week and my weekend looks free, I'm really thinking about it. I'm a 3 hr drive from Auburn, but my game buddy is gone, I'd be heading out solo.

Yup, just this year. Pretty crazy.

Is the band making any road trips this year?

So it wasn't easily available on the internet but the band is suppose to go to Bama and Arkansas games this year.

Who are much better than what we have had there the past 8 years.

How do you feel about the game over all?

Overall I see this being the lowest scoring game between the two teams since your inception into the conference. I think first team to 25 wins.
Where Auburn looks favorable:
Our DL against your OL, we have been smothering the LOS and run def has been really good.
CB have been playing like gloves, coverage has been tight. The only way Clemson was routinely able to gain yards against us was with the back shoulder throw.
Auburn has the best RB pair that A&M has seen and they should get their yards.
Our WR look about as good as I've seen at Auburn.
Where A&M looks favorable:
Our tackles have been lack luster and our interior line play has been below expectations.
SW has a tendency to have balls batted down at the LOS.
Our LB aren't the best in coverage and have been burned in coverage.
Gus has an offense that this world isn't ready for with 5 QBs and a pirouette dive by a FB.
Auburn plays with a ton of emotion and we have already seen some stupid penalties caused by emotional players.
If you ask me what I realistically see the score being I am going to say 23-17 Auburn. I think that if Gus will be "Reduced Wrinkle Gus" that we have enough horses on offense to move the ball with a little consistency while frustrating your offense outside of a couple big plays. I think if this game was to be played at Kyle Field that A&M would be able to pull off a couple more big plays to reverse the score.

I could definitely see that playing out.
I just think this will be an ugly game that hinges on a couple of big plays or miscues. Those usually favor the home team. TAMU has a defense now that's starting to get good enough to make their own good fortune, but so does Auburn, obviously
Tbh, I have no idea what's going to happen. I'll just be surprised if anyone breaks 30 points.

Appreciate the response.
Our run defense seems to be much improved with healthy line backers, and a new interior line coach (along with more experience in all across the front 7). However, last year I could have played QB for Auburn and came out with a win. We couldn't stop the run at all. I think our receivers will create several opportunities, but Knight will have to capitalize with a higher efficiency. Our O-Line seems much improved, but this will certainly be a much bigger test than they have faced thus far.
I'm cautiously optimistic due to the improvement shown so far, but this will be our first real test, so I don't have any real idea. I could definitely see your prediction coming to fruition, I guess well have to see.

Actually a highly touted SO and a SR

That's pretty solid. I will say what our LB's lack in coverage they make up in their run stopping play. However, I think A&M can expose our weakness in LB coverage and make us cry a little Saturday.

Austin Golson and Robert Leff do not stand a chance without ridiculous amounts of holding. Golson has only played 1 year previously and it was at center. Leff was a special teamer and finally got to start in 2015 for 2 games and one of those was at TE. They're not ready. Golson had a false start & illegal procedure vs Clemson. Clemson was able to get to the QB 4x on only 34 drop backs.

31-17 Ags. I think we get some turnover luck, and defense is going to flex a bit.
