Deep in the heart of Texas
The line in this Big 12 game is starting to move, and should keep moving. Texas A&M is now a 1.5 point fav against Texas Tech. TT's anemic offense came alive against that powerhouse SE Louisiana last weekend. TAMU is a much improved squad this year. These teams and their fans absolutely hate each other. The agro-american defense will stop Techs offense, and will score often on a mediocre Tech defense. Take the aggies -1.

I have to ask, based on what? You can't tell me the Army game was a quality win. I hear hype coming out of College Station every year but just don't see any progress being made.

i watched the entire army /texas a+m game two weeks ago and armys offense did anything they wanted to against a+m defense. they simply could not stop army, what do you think techs offense will do thats alot quicker than army's?

Tech looked awful against TCU. The were lucky to get a win against a very mediocre UTEP team. I'm a UT homer,and don't care much for the aggies. That said, Kyle field is one scary place to play. Tech has had a superior team this decade. Not so this year. Still think the ags roll them at home this year.

A&M's D isn't the TCU D. Gary Patterson's D is the only reason Coach Fran's TCU teams were any good. I'm taking Tech BIG in this game now.

Mcgee's playing real well for A&M.

Harrell said he remembered coming to A&M 2 years ago as a redshirt and how he couldnt wait to play there someday. As rattled as he looked against TCU I think he'd rather be in the comfy confines of Jones SBC. IF A&M can get pressure on him and ding him up a little he could melt down.

A&M's outrecruited Tech for the last millenium.

This should be a real good game

I'm going to wait until the line hits TT +7, then I'll jump on the ML

+7 are you kidding? No way this line gets over 3. Public is hitting Tech and smart money is pounding back and taking A&M thats why A&M is now favored. That being said I have not been impressed with A&M thus far and we always have trouble with Tech. I wouldn't touch this game with your money.

Tech is a HUGE play for me. Leach absolutely owns the Ags. Hiring Gary _arnell will prove to be a huge mistake and will ultimately be the un-doing of Franocchio. A&M won't be able to stop Tech as the Red Raiders will roll easily. Getting points is a bonus as TT won't need them. Take Tech - BIG!

joshnaudi,

I am actually thinking of making a play on the under 59. We are going to try and control the clock and run jorvorskie about 25-30 times to keep the Tech offense off the field. I think its going to be a lot lower scoring than most people think like a 24-21 type game. I try to stay away from betting on A&M games, but I think a play on the under is in order here.

I agree.

A&M can bring a little pressure and we've seen a rattled Graham before @ TCU. A&M pass defense, albeit untested, is very good and more importantly can tackle which eliminates big plays for Techand keeps the tick, tick, tick, ticking

Two very good punters adding to a long field to drive.

Tech's run defense is playing pretty well this year not allowing an avg of more than 5 ypr in a game yet. We haven't played the talent level of A&M and we definately haven't been shutdown by any means but we have played better bend but don't break which could lead to long time consuming A&M drives.

Mcgee is the key. Tech has struggled against the pass and the scrambling QB. Mcgee has played well and really seems to be a good leader for the team. His play looks to be the only thing from making the under a very strong play.

FG kickers for both have semi-struggled. Not sure what the deal is at A&M as it looks like yall are running a dual kicker combo. Any case, the numbers aren't great for both.

This should be a real good game. With you on the under. Hopefully no overtime.
