    Cotton Bowl: Pickin' A&M ML at +115

    A&M got hot down the stretch when they made their QB switch to Tannehill. The best thing about him, less turnovers than Jerrod Johnson who just could not hold onto the ball. A&M has great balance on offense with a superb passing attack and a big time back in Cyrus Gray. LSU struggled against the run late, giving up 173 ypg over the last three. A&M's weakness on D is the pass, something LSU may not be able to take advantage of. A&M must be strong against the run.

    If Gray runs well for A&M, count on Les Miles fukking up enough to give the Aggies the game.

    LSU defense wasn't strong down the stretch. IF LSU wins, it will be because of special teams play IMO.

    Like the pick. A&M really jacked for this game. I do respect how well LSU's coaches have done with what looks like average talent. This should be a very even game.

    les miles is one of the best bowl coaches and he has the better team. LSU can put 9 people in the box to stop the run

    Very good post and while I like TAM, I've got to put my money on the mad hatter. He does some crazy shit but it often works. I like him much more than Sherman and LSU normally shows up for bowls, not so much for TAM.

    A&M pass defense is around #25 in the nation in pass efficiency and even better in yards per attempt

    opposition racks up yards because they don't dare try to run the ball, 3.3 yards per carry

    That would be the worst decision ever to load up the box against a lethal passing team, so I know we won't see that. A&M needs to win the turnover battle and not get fukked by special teams and they will have their shot. Should be a good one.

    That moved it a point? Fine by me if that's why people moved the line a point this past week or so, but I don't think it had much to do with it. Just think people like LSU and Miles' track record.

    Wonder if the Michigan situation is a distraction to Miles at all.

    A&M back on top. Remember when I said Miles would fukk up .... remember the stupid challenge he used on that play at the 1. Could be something that haunts the doosh later.

    1st one was the receiver, 2nd one was poor QB play. Good thing is A&M has shown they can move the ball on this D. Gotta hang onto the damn thing, but need to pressure LSU into some turnovers in the 2nd half to have a prayer.

    Aggie Jokes

    Did you hear there aren't any cold drinks at College Station any more?
    They lost their recipe for ice.

    Did you know that there are three types of Aggies?
    Those who can count and those who can't.

    A 2-seater plane crashed into a cemetery near College Station. The Aggie fire department uncovered 700 bodies.

    There were 3 Aggies in a car and they were going to Disney World and they saw a road sign and it said "Disney World Left" so they turned around and went home.

    Did you hear the Texas A&M library burned down? The saddest part was that half the books weren't colored in yet. The OU library burned down too. They lost their book.

    Q: What are the longest 3 years of an Aggie football player's life?
    A: His freshman year.
