Free money. La Tech barely beat Virginia, and their defense is HORRIBLE. We should win by 4+ TDs.

ETA: I mixed up La Tech's underwhelming win over Virginia with TCU's pathetic showing over SMU. My apologies for confusing two bad teams that we would blow out.

La Techs is A&M.

A&Ms is LSU


And -8 is a joke. It was -10.5 I think in the opener. We roll LT by 30 now. I will unload on -8 if its still available game week

While I think "Super Bowl" is probably strong wording certainly the most anticipated A&M game is LSU. The renewal of the rivalry. It's the A&M "Maroon Out" game that they make special tshirts for every year. Certainly it is the biggest game at Kyle and if A&M wins it the shockwaves in Texas and in recruiting would be MASSIVE. It would put a huge stamp that A&M is a legit SEC team. If A&M is 5-1 as expected the atmosphere is going to be absolutely epic. If it is a night game? Wow.

Would A&M love to beat Bama? Of course, but that would take someone with a permanent maroon kool aid IV drip to think it is realistic. While A&M has a history of winning huge games as an underdog at Kyle they don't have it for road games like Bama of that magnitude. Love to break the mold but it's more of a "nothing to lose" game.

Caught on to what? LT is giving up 37.0 PPG to Houston, Rice, Illinois, and Virginia. You really don't think A&M will score 50+?

Who knows...we're just happy to win and that our Freshman QB broke the All-time SEC total yardage/game record in his 2nd SEC game.

Me thinks LSU fan is trying to deflect the REAL question from week 5.

Is LSU that good?

all i'm saying is A&M is sitting right there unranked with them. guess the rest of the poll voters haven't caught on to the A&M dominance yet.

La Tech has a very, very good offense and a very, very bad defense. A&M wins, but it might not be a blow out.

I retract my statement. La Tech is not as good as I thought. It will probably be a blowout.

They gave up 625 yards to a pretty bad UVA squad, and they only gained 385 yards against them. UVA is by far the best team that La Tech has played, and they have already lost to mediocre TCU team and got bat pretty bad by GT.

I don't think La Tech has a chance to win. But I haven't seen them play.

You have to give them some credit. We'll see but maybe Florida is really good this year. The other teams aren't good but they have dominated

We'll see.

My bad. I got your underwhelming win over Virginia mixed up with TCU's over SMU. The point still stands. Virginia is not a good team, you barely beat them, and gave up 38 points. We will score 50+ and I will be surprised if you top 30.

Charles - A&M isn't undefeated. Hell, we aren't even ranked. LSU is undefeated, and highly ranked.

And yet with all this information, we have LSU fans concerned whether A&M is perceived as being good?
