A&M favored vs. LSU. That is a surprise. Favored versus ND is also a huge surprise. Favored vs. Missouri? Somebody out there believes a LOT in Elko's ability as a coach. A&M's season will be based on OL play. Need a solid OL in front of whoever the QB is.

Seems to me like the oddsmakers are trying to sucker in some koolaid guzzling Aggies. We got a lot to prove this year, we have some good talent, but it hasn’t been developed under the previous staff, so beating teams like ND and LSU would mean Elko has made lots of progress and is ahead of schedule in the rebuild.

I don’t gamble, but I certainly wouldn’t be loading up on the Ags with those lines.

Oddsmakers aren't going to further skew the line towards A&M in games vs Notre Dame and LSU. That's absurd. Those schools are way more popular in the public eye.

College gameday in College Station
Nighttime kickoff
Top 10 Opponent
Arguably the biggest brand in college football

You couldn't set up a more prime opportunity for Elko to announce himself

1-9 in College GameDay games.

Bet everything you have on Notre Dame.

That literally has no impact on this years game.

Anyone know anything about Notre Dames returning players and what they lost to the draft and portal?

They had 2 tackles drafted in the 1st and 2nd rounds. They also has 2 LBs and a corner go. They'll be breaking in 2 tackles on the OL. That's great news for our DEs.

Their biggest boost in the portal is Duke QB Riley Leonard. I think Elko has an unfair advantage game planning for him. On the flip side they lost four WRs. The main two were Rico Flores and Chris Tyree. They were 1 and 2 in WR catches last year. The other big loss was a plus pass rusher in Osafo-Mensah (TCU). I don't think he started but was expected to this year.
