I think we lead early, go back and forth into the 4th, then Alabama pulls away late.

Likely win for Bama, with an outside chance for A&M if they finally put 4 quarters together.

We have nothing to lose and are not losing games in the second half. We have been exponentially growing week to week. JFF is playing smarter and better each week and could be a difference maker. If Mett can pick your secondary apart, I feel good about our chances.

No matter the outcome, it will be a learning experience we will really be able to use for the next couple seasons. This is the measuring stick in the SEC right now. If I was a betting man, I would put anything on A&M but I wouldn't be shocked if we won either.

Just saying... If Mett can do that to a Bama defense, A&M has a SHOT at making it interesting.

Interestingly, I think the A&M game next week is good practice for the uptempo Oregon offense that Bama will play in the NCG.

I was surprised to see LSU pass so well on Alabama so i'm thinking we have a punchers chance in this thing. We'll need to win the turnover battle and make all of our field goals. I think A&M has a shot to win a close one or keep it within 10 points.

Punchers chance. Hopeful we can at least make it a good game.

That's been my thought for awhile now. However, if we get that far I'm hoping its KS or ND. I really don't want to play them. They are putting up crazy numbers out there.

My thought is you stuck me in the top of the damn stadium. There's only whiskey in those binoculars. How am I supposed to see JFF do work?

We have more of a chance now than I thought we would, but I don't think we are there yet. Unless we play a perfect game, I'm expecting a 2ish score win for Bama. If we don't turn the ball over like we did against LSU, then we may be able to eek it out, but I put the chance of that happening around 15%.

Alabama isn't the juggernaut I thought they were. I sort of started to believe the McCarron for Heisman talk, but that seems ludicrous now. They are still a great team, and my policy is to always believe what Vegas tells me, and surely the gumps will be favored.

I expect a shootout though.

A&M keeps surprising me - it has been an up and down season, but Manziel is getting better and better at playing within the system each week. It is the emergence of the running game that has made the difference. After LSU, there was a feeling that game was there for the taking if we ran the ball more - looks like KK got the message. Our running game has been brutally effective in the subsequent blowouts. Defensively, our players have a ton of heart, but not much depth. We are a few yeas away from elite talent there.

The media wants to make it all about Manziel, but there is more to this team. Whatever happens at BDS, the future is undeniably bright

Difficult, but far from impossible. Outcome will be decided by how well we can stop Bama's rushing offense.

Will come down to JFF being able to complete passes against Bama secondary and our defenses ability to contain the run.

Seems like every week JFF is progressing in his passing ability, Bama secondary seemed mortal last night and our run defense while not great has been getting better and better.

Realistically still dont see us upsetting you guys but those factors combined I think its gonna be a good game

Really depends how Bama comes out. That was as emotional of win as you'll ever have for Bama (I'm actually a huge bama fan and live in tuscaloosa/married into a huge bama family) and it'll be interesting to see the energy level of the team after coming off that win over LSU on the final drive.

On the flip side, I think A&M will roll in to BDS as confident as any team could be going on the road to play the number 1 team in the country.

If bama comes out flat, I think we could jump out to an early lead (like we did against LSU and Florida) and then have to try and hold on. I think Bama eventually pulls it out and wins by 10-14.

Alabama goes up 24-0, Manziel brings them all the way back to win it.
