I've been through the film, watch the games, and can confidently say the following should happen:

1/ Their offense is truly offensive against our front 7... They will be lucky to score 14-17 points.
2/ They cannot run or throw the ball very effectively against us, unless they get some busted plays.
3/ Our offensive speed could shock them, if we can get some mis-direction going effectively.
4/ We spy their QB, we win easily.
5/ Their special teams/punter is actually better than ours.. so we have to play sound football.
6/ Moss, Bussey, Thomas, and TE's could be very effective in this game.
7/ Our OL is maturing fast, but will be tested on every 2nd/3rd down... we have some chances for big plays on 1st downs.
8/ Their big bodies are not fast... if we can move them one way, run plays another, we move the ball well.
9/ LSU run defense showed how successful USC can be, but our run D is significantly better.
10/ We could see both QB's play in this game... to test both styles of their defense. The pass with Connor and the run with Marcel - don't be surprised if we play both.

Sellers is the key... don't let him out of the pocket and we got this!

Aggies 34, USC 14 (Adjusted up from my previous 24-21 view from SpreadsheetAg's initial lines)

(After watching the film, I'm more confident we can score.They will have numerous 3 or 6 down drives, giving us more opportunities in this game)

so is this the new gig? every game go super superlative?

weird.

The prophet has spoken

Nice!

Blasphemy!

At this point only a fool would doubt the OP's predictions

I choose to believe!

Only number I'm concerned about is the over. I'm confident we cover.

OP, do you think we can move the ball consistently with Marcel and the running game? He's a known commodity now so SC will certainly game plan for stopping the zone read and force him to throw.

From the OP's fingers to God's ears!

If he puts a finger in each of God's ears, how will God hear your prayers???

I agree.

Yes and no... IF they load the box, we will need to pass and that could be Connor or Marcel! - I could see them both getting some playing time.

From your lips to God's ears!!

this is encouraging

OP is full of **** but then again he has been dead on balls right lately so maybe he is not full of ***** Ok I am onboard with OP. BTHO USCe

I'm in.

Our pressure leads to multi-INT game for SC.

We lead the SEC in turnovers. That seems to be the advanced stat that no one is really factoring but let's be honest that's what won the game vs LSU. Short fields made Reed (and the run option offense) look like a monster. If instead of Nuss getting picked, they punted and we had to drive 60-70 yards, I think the game would have been a lot tighter, if not an LSU win in regulation.

That being said our defense was scary AF in the 2nd half and Nuss was running for his life most times he dropped back. (And he is terrible on the run, he is a pocket guy through and through.)

So if we bring the D to the SC game, there is a significant chance we keep them under 14 points scored.

By all means, prognosticate away.

I think as long as we don't have a complete abortion for an offense, we easily cover the spread.

If it is an abortion, we lose.

We either play right and win 'easily' or we lose. There will be no squeaking out a narrow victory.

If we actually win this game with Marcel Reed, then he's basically aggie Lamar Jackson

Of course, he did go 0 for 5 on his LSU predictions, but who's counting?

He was close on the final score at least.

Jimbo is that you?

Prediction: PAIN!

The reverse Raptor!

Okay. Tight game the whole way, no matter which QB we play. We will end the game with Reed at QB.

Ags 225 yds rushing 140 passing
SC 140 yds rushing 180 passing

Final Score: Texas A&M 26 South Carolina 20

I'm not nearly that confident- I think this is a team that's going to come out VERY confident, playing in front of a fired up crowd in a night game.

We're coming off a big win and been hearing about how great we are all week.

This will be the best defense we've played since game 1

If we don't come out and play like we are capable of, this team will take our lunch money…
