WA/SC & a&m/MS who do you like?

[outhereincali]

I'm just not sure. I thought it was ridiculous that the pc had the aggies ahead of WA last week. Well, the huskies are where they deserve to be ranked but now they are at the toughest part of their schedule three good teams await them. After the Trojans come AZS, then their traditional season finale at WSU. Btw, well find out how good ML is, can he finally win a big game maybe even a conference title? I was never on the ML bandwagon. I thought he was a shameless grand stander, even something of a con. He had one big win in 10 seasons at TT and he lost all of his other big games. Yes it was chicken you know what way of firing him but unless he wins out he's still overrated.

And how good is SC? Thier first year coach got off to a brutal start opening at Bama. But he's righted the ship and they're 6/3. After WA they close with UCLA and ND. At SC the coach has to beat UCLA and ND to make the alums happy. Well see how good they are. The odds makers say WA by 8 with the o/u at 62.5

But I just don't know enough about SC what do you guys think?

Then we come to a&m vs MS. I said this earlier this week and I'll say it again the only difference with being in the SEC does for them is that they get far more publicity. They start out ranked, people make a big deal out of their non con wins and they go into Oct ranked in the top 6. But every Oct their schedule gets tougher and they're back to square one. You know their schedule kind of works like Baylor under Briles. They played an even weaker non con schedule and their schedule was always back loaded. We have a game where both starting qb's, and they were good ones, are out for the year and I have no idea how to pick this game. I don't like MS but they're playing the aggies so I hope they win.

Well, Briles did win 2 conference championships. which is two more than ATM and Ole Miss combined.

I'll go with the Aggies on this one. Hubenak has at least seen the field a couple of times. And they are still playing for a major bowl. Ole Miss is playing for bowl eligibility, and the thought of NCAA investigators snooping around will start taking its toll.

And the Huskies will roll through Trojans and WSU. But I love Leach anyway.

did shae patterson redshirt? he was supposed to be the next big thing in sec qb's. if they told him to sit one out and get his redshirt, i get the consternation; if he's playing, why is this not an ole miss win?

You make some very good points. However, you are incorrect in that they start out ranked. I don't believe that TAMU has been handed anything. They started the season unranked and worked their way up. This is the 3 straight year they have started out well and then faded although it appears they made it 2-3 more weeks this year. They still lack depth at some positions and that starts to show in the last half of the season. They have not responded well after their first losses and injuries that happen and are a part of the game.

Im really not sure what to make of this game. TAMU is at home and favored by 10 so obviously they are supposed to win it. If Chad Kelly were playing I would not like our chances at all. I think A&M wins but will not be easy. If they show up not ready to play like last week they will lose.

He was the number 2 qb coming out of high school last year right? If so then they are burning his redshirt and he is starting today.

a&m beats ole miss. Both teams lose their starting QB, but, I believe ole miss needs Kelly more than a&m needs Knight.

UW beats USC without major difficulty.
