re: Texas A&M at Arkansas - StatSim

The most likely outcome would seem to be that both offenses get some points early but A&M gets a couple stops and gets a lead and then just runs the ball down Arky's throat to eat up clock and wear out their D. That forces Arky to have to take more chances and throw the ball aggressively that allows the A&M pass rush to have a fun day and A&M pulls away for a comfortable win.

It's in Fayetteville though and Petrino has a lot of voodoo, weather might be a factor as well. I'm also sure that Elko only cares about finding a way to win and DGAF about style points so there is a good chance this turns into something ugly. Arky is more than capable of winning this game and they have a lot of Texas kids on their roster that hate A&M. Aggy just needs to stay cool and execute and GTFO with a W.

Arkansas is scoring 30 points per game, so I’d be happy with holding them to 27 points.

But I’m thinking if the weather holds then it will be higher scoring.
