BIG PLAY - (7) Texas at (13) Texas A&M

[mcwmiamisc]

Texas at Texas A&M

Seems like the line would be more like Texas -5.5 or so. They beat A&M at home by 21 a few weeks ago. They handles Mizzou by 13 while A&M beat them by 2. Texas has won at Kansas. And by the way A&M lost to Neb by 9. Tex only losses are to UConn and Pitt Top 10 opponents. A&M lost to BC and Neb non Top 25 along with losing Tex earlier. This points to a Texas Massacre..... So why is the line Tex -1.5 A&M. This makes me think to go big on A&M. Anyone agree???

Prediction:

Texas A&M 69 - Texas 62

[TexansFan]

I played O 129. Texas is terrible from the free throw line but I'll take your final score.

[survive]

I agree this line is sketchy. Texas is playing very good ball

[LockPickMaster]

the line should be 4 so why only 1.5, hmmmmm

[TexansFan]

A&M is a damn good home team but as stated Tx is playing great right now. I'm not even going to bother trying to figure out the spread, just hoping for a high scoring game.

[me-first]

I'm also on A&M in this one..

I love Texas so if you want to win take A&M.

[hugh4310]

I love Texas so if you want to win take A&M.

Because I suck balls at picking winners!

[Ca$hfloW]

A&M doesnt loose at home but with that being said i kind of like texas but I wouldnt touch this game

[kings12]

I think the line is a trap for you to take Texas, so I like A&M as well.

[HoulihansTX]

Its a revenge game. So the spread represents that.

There is no value in Texas A&M at this price.

The oddsmakers are basically asking who you think is going to win.

[nick22]

lol, take texas...........

[sweethook]

texas is playing top 5 bball will out run the home team

[LockPickMaster]

Texas has covered against KU and Missouri, they should cover against Tamu. But someone on Tamu will have the game of their life and Tamu will cover.

[waco66]

I like texas here aswell

[ThingsFallApart]

I don't think this T A&M squad has what it takes. They dont have the speed to stick with Texas all game and Tx shoots better as well. Texas handled KU and Mizzou from start to finish and I think they win by at least 2-3 here. Texas looks very very good this year.

[DaOutlaw1x]

Texas at home jumped up by like 20 in 5 minutes then they pretty much traded baskets the rest of the way. If Texas gets off to a fast start I expect about the same. If A&M keeps it close or jumps out themselves look out.

[Wiggums5]

Texas is one of the best teams in the country right now, wouldn't bet against them

[LockPickMaster]

They just lost to the Huskers and now they have to face Texas. Defense wins games according to Gary Johnson

The Aggies are coming off a 57-48 defeat Saturday at Nebraska. They shot just 39 percent against the Huskers, who rank third nationally in field-goal percentage defense. David Loubeau, A&M's best low-post threat, was only allowed five shot attempts, and he converted three.
Tonight against Texas, the Aggies face a team that ranks fourth nationally in field-goal defense and first in defensive efficiency. A&M shot 41.5 percent during an 81-60 loss at Texas on Jan. 19, the only one of six Longhorn Big 12 opponents to clear 40 percent. The Longhorns hit a season-high 58 percent against A&M, Jordan Hamilton scoring 27 points and Tristan Thompson 18.


“Good defense beats good offense on any given night. That’s what we do.”
– Texas forward Gary Johnson. The Longhorns improved to 18-3 win a 71-58 win vs. Missouri.

a&m is overrated

[msaboo23]

This is is making you think...and luring you into taking A&M...Texas is a top 5 team and wins by 10 in the end...
Either take TEXAS or stay away...Im all over Texas...there is no reason to think they cant win handily...

[TrapperDapper]

It's tough playing at A&M, but I don't think they are that good.

[knicks573]

classic revenge game your better playing the over

[5ammy]

I like the over 128 on this one more than Texas covering

[soonerstud7804]

The Public will line up all over Texas... But sometimes the Public is right...

[ND25]

A&M is too good at home. I'm staying away.

[thebestthereis]

what is is a&m's record at home vs good teams? i wanna say not so great. you bet a&m at home vs average teams (maybe -7 +/- favorite) where there is line value and they usually blow them out. this is my opinion, no way to gauge this matchup. gun to my head i'd play the under. good luck!

[agharah1]

Its like an earlier poster said, Texas jumped out to a 20 point lead and they traded baskets the rest of the way. Being on the road, it will probably be another game of trading baskets, except this time A/M won't get down by 20 early. I can see the Aggies winning at home in front of a monster crowd. Crazier things have happened this season.

[the12thman]

For anyone who watched the game, you know the refs took a&m out of the game early. 8 fouls were called on A&M in a two minute span, 6 in 60 seconds, at the beginning of the first half, absolutely unreal.

For texas, a below average free throw shooting team, they shot 19-22, while a&m, an above average shooting team shot 10-17. Most likely, those numbers will at least average out with a&m being at home.

A&M and texas have split the last 6 years at home, with the last 4 years at A&M all being by over 15 points per game blowouts, keep in mind this has been consistently done with worse A&M teams than this years squad.

[LockPickMaster]

Texas -1 now, WOW

[TPowell]

A&M or nothing for me..... nothing unless something crazy happens. Great team against a solid team who's great at home the past few years

[TheRagingBull]

Texas is 0-5 ATS in its last 5 games when playing on the road against Texas A&M

[LOST BY 1 POINT]

When it looks to good to be true....well you know the rest

[LockPickMaster]

When it looks to good to be true....well you know the rest

its true, pound texas for your whole bankroll

[ji03]

Texas looks very good right now and the way they beat A&M back at Texas I can't take A&M, but agree that the line does seem low.
