Going to 4th is like smoke and mirrors.
When teams can run at will on your defense it isn't because of A&M's great pass defense. It is because the run defense is so bad that there is no reason to pass. Look at what LSU did to A&M's run defense last year. Didn't even need to pass when Guice is running for over 250 yards all by himself.
A&M's passing stats vs. LSU probably looked pretty damn good but LSU still hung 50 plus on A&M. Stats are deceiving.

Take ANOTHER look at the stats from Mark Snyder's final year (2014).
A&M was 109th against the run AND 80th against the pass that season.

Their pass defense stats? Etling went 20-28 for 324 yards and two scores.
