Can we stop their run game?If so how? Can we Run on their front 7?I know their db's are the weak link but we have to run the ball effectively to have a shot imo.

Don't need too, their secondary is atrocious.

Griffin ran on Alabama pretty well, look for him to get more touches.

You sound like we don't have a chance

I think their DL is probably on par with Tennessee's. I feel our offense can move the ball. The key is to have long sustaining drives that come away with points and eats up clock. Keep Manziel off the field. Dude is really good. Keep him in the pocket.

I have a bad feeling if he gets hot, it's a long day for State. They are always looking for the big play and will take shots down the field. They try to spread vertical so to open up underneath and open space for Manziel to run.

my keys are win the TOP,TO margin and stop big plays which probably means we'll give up the short passes all game long.

I just don't think our Defense is as goodd as it's been the last few years and it will be a nail biter or A&M blowing us out.


Only my opinion though.

We will b/c of long clock consuming drives... and Manziel will throw and interception or 2.

As long as we contain the big play we'll be fine.

The A&M defense has not forced a turnover since the Ole Miss game, which is good for us anyway since we rarely turn it over. I feel like this will be a big key in the game. We need to be at least +2 and we will win.

I feel like this'll be a high scoring affair like Arky 2010, but I feel we'll pull it through as long as Moore doesn't kill drives. If we can stop him it's game over IMO.

Mike Evans is a fricking beast. Bad part is we have at least 2 more years of him after Saturday. I hope JBanks gets his balls back.

[you sound like we dont have a chance.[/quote.]. We do have a chance. I just think we have to be effective running the ball to win. Also they have good rbs as well. Their OL is very good. Our DL is avg. Our defense has struggled with this type offense. I think we can win but this matchup concerns me to say the least.

I mean spread teams.The mobile QB just makes it even more difficult.They are a really good offense that present alot of matchup problems for us.We have some advantages on offense as well.SEC games are typically won in the trenches.Their OL>our DL.Can we run on their front 7 is the ?.I know we have the advantage in passing game but if we can't run the ball effectively it will be a long day for us imo
