    Dane, you like this move?

    King did NOT look good 1st two games. Even against Sam Hou St, could have been MORE ints.

    Yea, King wasn’t cutting it. They have to do something different. I like A&M if the spread is under a TD

    Salud, dane. I'm scouting this game out.

    A lot of people liking Miami. Aggie defense is really fast, got run on some btw the tackles last wk.

    This is a MUST win for Jimbo and A&M. He's still guaranteed to make $85M if they fire him but there's a lot of disgruntled alumni with deep pockets. Do they continue to play like shit or do they get their act together. This line seems about right, so I'm laying off.

    dane, interesting if nothing else:

    *After QB change, Tx A&M sees some bets. Rises to -6.5.

    That surprises me a little. I'll list a few reasons:
    1) The season-opening win vs Sam Hou St now looks phony. Sam Hou lost to No Ariz, 10-3, last week.
    2) The App St loss didn't appear to be fake. App St converted 3rd downs well, more FD 22 to 9.
    3) Miami has looked pretty good, admittedly vs lesser foes.

    Was really expecting to see it dip toward -4.

    A lot of pressure put on this untested QB to save Jimbo's job. There is no way they keep him if he loses to App St and Miami.

    While this change should increase the passing attack of of A&M from Miami's perspective they have less to worry about as far as the QB rushing.

    That said, Johnson can rush and Jimbo might be wise to keep a balanced attack from the QB if he wants to win.

    Force Miami to stay home while being able to attack downfield.

    It's a different era, the era of NIL.

    Fellas don't underestimate Max Johnson.

    Just a quick basic statline from his campaign last year at LSU...

    G Cmp Att Pct Yds TD Int
    12 225 373 60.3 2815 27 6

    He's like 6-5, 220 or so and this cat is good.

    Lol

    50% chance of winning no matter who you take

    All about turnovers and mistakes and that cannot be predicted totally random

    Johnson probably should been starting to begin with. King was next level bad against app state. A&M is a talented team, and often when a talented team has to hear everyone shit on them all week, they come out with a good effort.

    this game will probably be over after midnight. Not that the Miami guys aren’t used to staying up after midnight

    Somehow Johnson had good numbers last year at LSU (27 TD, 6 picks) but the games I saw him play he was awful.

    I can't trust Cristobal in any situation but Miami looks like the right side.

    dane, thx for posting. Your info was good.

    I wound up passing the game. Thought about it too much, and I believed in Cokin's MIA opinion. I thought it was TXAM or pass.

    Jimbo's post-game comments were pretty honest. Johnson was solid, but needs good protection. TxAM won w/ a very compromised 2ndary.

    Slew, I swear this is a function of the new pass DEF rules. How do you play Def Back in modern game?

    TxAM got two targeting calls, which leads to Pen + ejection. Could they pussify the game any more?
