Statistics wise, we are better. That's what he is basing those > and < off of. Perkins is a Top 3 SEC RB. Nick Griffin and Josh Robinson are going to run straight down y'alls throats

Have you re evaluated your opinion of the OL comparison yet?

Also, have to look at the SEC's leading Rusher, Jonny Manziel when comparing RB Stats... Ours are better

Our RB's are better than yours and you know it. Our pass blocking is better than yours, but you have us beat by a lot with run blocking. I would say the WR's are even. LB's are probably even as well; Matthew Wells was born to QB Spy quarterbacks like JFF. Everything else is correct.



Ok, now I know you haven't watched much Aggie football or know much about our team.

Pass blocking? Seriously? We have 2 Tackles that are currently rated as high 1st Round draft picks. Against several teams Manziel has been able to order pizza and eat it while sitting in the pocket. If anything our run blocking is where we have "struggled" though A&M has about 600 yards more rushing than State and we moved the ball effectively on the ground against LSU.

As for RB's we have 2 former 5 Stars and a 3rd that is actually starting over them. Malena and Michael are physical beasts that are also money to take it to the house if they get to the 2nd level. Trey Williams has been used less though he ran for over 100 yards Saturday as well as having a 76 yard KO return against LSU. He is a Darren Sproles clone, fast and compact and hard to bring down.

At WR we go at least 8 deep but the feature guys are Swope (All time leading receiver at A&M) and Evans (6'5 former bball player that has a 38" vertical and is extremely physical.

LB's are led by 2 stud Srs in Porter and Stewart but they are all big and fast. Only weakness there is lack of depth

WHOA there fella....now you are looking ignorant. O line is better than A&M's. There probably isn't a better line in the country pass blocking than A&M's. RB's....how do your YPRush compare to A&M's? WR...serously? Not even in the same ballpark here.

I got those backwards, sorry. (I sound like I'm trying to cover up but I'm not) But we are 8 deep as well.

The only way you can make the stats for RB's "better" is if you discount Manziel's stats as he has a lot of designed runs. The A&M RB's though are strong though and have cranked out the yardage.

Malena averages 6.6 yards a carry.
Michael averages 4.7 yards a carry (but has a lot of short yardage).
Williams averages 4.8 yards a carry.

All of them also catch the ball well out of the backfield, esp Malena and Williams.

That can't be. Pivey said stat wise, State is better. Pivey is never wrong.

According to espn, Malena averages 6.6 ypc.

Nick Griffin averages 6.9.

Internets hard.

Honest question ... has he played in anything other than scrub minutes? He has 14 carries. Trey Williams has more than that.
