I'm just not sure that Texas is a bad team

Are we a more talented team? Yep
Are we going to win? Yep

But some posters who are predicting a blow out are crazy. Zero chance it's a blow out.

I think we win by less than a field goal (Spreadsheet data). 44-42


Texas has put up 40+ points 3 times this:

1.) SHSU
2.) MSU
3.) Arkansas

UGA held them to 10 points.

I'm not saying the Ags will do the exact same as UGA, but I would be gobsmacked if texas put up 40+ points against the Ags. Especially since the Ags have only allowed 42+ points once this season, against Arkansas.

Arkansas is a horrible team….worst than the sips.


NM. I read the message wrong. Ignore me.

Any team with a payroll as big as theirs is one to not take lightly. I doubt we are overall.

Sips underachieved this season but are loaded with 4 and 5* talent. They will be motivated for a rivalry game and would love nothing more than to ruin our season.

Having said that, I'm confident Elko will have our guys prepared.

They didn't ruin our season. They put a nasty mark on it for sure and they are crowing about it just like we would be if the roles were reversed but all our teams/fans goals are still achievable at this point ( with exception of beating tu).

A lot of WRONG with this thread.

tu suffered through a QB going down a steep learning curve early and mid-season. He's playing much better now (still not an elite QB by any means, but much better). In addition they did lose a lot from last year's team - especially OL and WR. They are still loaded with talent. Not sure who their left tackle is, but he completely neutralized Howell. 247 has their composite talent rank at #4. By comparison, Aggies are #8. They are peaking late season and it feels like we peaked around about the time we played LSU and have regressed a bit for whatever reason.

Elko and staff need to figure out how to get this team to loosen up a bit. Whatever he did for the tu game had them nervous and tight, but you also have to consider that tu was probably the most talented team we played all year and had something to do with our lack of production on offense and poor performance on defense.

Interesting data point - 9 of our opponents this year are ranked in 247 top 25 talent composite rankings. Most of them way under performed for whatever reason.
