TCU hasn't faced a decent rushing attack and they are still giving up 180 yards a game on the ground. Fournette & Co. would put about 350 on them.
ARTICLE 15. All players are prohibited from grabbing the inside back collar of the shoulder pads or jersey, or the inside collar of the side of the shoulder pads or jersey, and immediately pulling the ball carrier down. This does not apply to a ball carrier, including a potential passer, who is inside the tackle box (Rule 2-34). Note that the tackle box disintegrates when the ball leaves it.

Rule 9-1-15. Jersey vs. pads is immaterial to the rule.



What I see there is Frost diving for Manziel, catching him by the jersey collar with is left hand, begin pulling him down, and catching Manziel on the right arm/shoulder with his right hand to complete the tackle.
And when the Alabama fans you encounter in real life tell you there's no way a well-regarded DC would leave a perrenial contender for a division opponent over something as trivial as money, just remember that crazier things have happened.

How much would A&M be favored is the game were at Kyle? MSU +7?
I counted myself as a casual fan of Auburn and Georgia before joining the SEC. Still don't mind seeing either of them win, but I wouldn't say I root for anyone other than A&M.
The Arkansas game still has me scratching my head. If you take away the special teams play, they were nearly 100 yards below their average running the ball, but that's also because some TDs were called back on penalties. Watching the game, it seemed like A&M was the more physically fit team and held up to the game when that big OL for Arkansas was fading in the 4th and in OT.

On offense, A&M had some miscues as well. Reynolds dropped 2 balls that would have been points, and Pope tripped over the 30 yard line in what would have also been a TD, but resulted in an A&M missed opportunity. I feel like A&M left at least 17 points on the field in miscues, and that's before the missed field goal.

Looking and MSU, I see a slightly worse but still solid running game and OL. I think they've got the better passing game by far.

As far as when A&M has the ball, seems like A&M has a much better passing game than LSU, and probably on par running the ball.

Should be a good game with several explosive scoring plays. I'm guessing A&M gets out early and gets MSU out of his offensive game plan. A&M wins 38-34.
If it helps, MSU is #121 nationally in passing yards allowed.

A&M is #5 in passing offense.

:popcorn:
So are we just not going to talk about the random hind leg on Uga?
Minnesota will trade with StL to move up and get him ahead of Cleveland.
We'll be lucky to break even in conference play, so I'm guessing No.
The media is pretty blase about his numbers this year and it's all "Johnny went Johnny, but let's talk about something else." I know I've been spoiled watching him play. Next year is going to be a rap on the beezer when someone else is under center.
Good lord that pass. :scared:
Sounded like a lot of cheering on TV from the Ole Miss fans when John Football was on the ground. :dunno:

OH RIGHT! THE GAS!
Goombaw, your question is valid. There's no doubt that Alabama was one bad throw away from winning that game despite spotting A&M 20 points.

However, the same type of people on A&M's side that think Alabama can't handle our offense are the exact same type of people on Bama's side that don't think a freshman quarterback can actually improve and be better. Manziel's a better QB. Malena's a better RB. Open Mike Evans is a better WR. Not only do a lot of people forget that Manziel was a freshman who made plenty of mistakes, but they also forget that 2012 was Year One of this offensive scheme for A&M. The offense should be better.
I believe that our QB is better this year than last year. And I believe that our RBs and WRs are better as well. I also believe that Dee Milliner is a tough player to replace.

However, I also happen to believe that we have very hope of stopping Amari Cooper. And despite the losses Bama suffered to the NFL draft on the OLine, I have very little hope of holding TJ Yeldon to under 150 yards and 2 scores.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least for A&M to score 40 and still lose this game.
More impressive than winning in Tuscaloosa is the fact that we've managed to turn Nick Saban and Bama into the good guys. That's the greatest illusion of all.

Looking forward to seeing South Carolina's baseball team outside the CWS. :lol:
