Texas A&M at #2 Texas

110th in Rushing Offense, 115th in Rushing D, 112th in Scoring D the Aggies would have to bring their A game and a replacement arm for Jerrod Johnson if they are going to win this one.  A&M’s only hope is to air the ball out against a Texas D that is 55th in pass efficiency D.  On D their only chance is to bring another dback up to play the run and help their sad Run D.  Texas is lobbying for style points and a Big 12 South title.  Texas A&M would also have to play out of their minds to win this one in Austin.

Texas is giving the Aggies 34.  Speaking of out of your mind, you would have to be if you didn’t take the Aggies to cover.    

In my next post, I will provide the details of how I socially engineered the Embassy Suites omelet bar away.  http://sports.espn.go.com/espnmag/story?id=3721689

Teams in Rivalry games this weekend who have nothing to lose and everything to gain:
Texas A&M; At stake is bragging rights for another year and the ability to spoil a championship for their hated rival
West Virginia; can claim stake to a snow balls chance in hell to win the Big East if they pay Pitt back for last year
Fresno State; Can help get rid of Pat Hill and the Bulldogs' little man's complex by ousting Big Bad #9 Boise St
Syracuse; talk about nothing to lose the coach is already fired, their not going anywhere after this weekend.  Watchout Cincy
#20 Florida State; in a weak year for college football, a loss moves them to #23.  A win on the other hand knocks big brother Florida out of the national title hunt.
Auburn; See Texas A&M
Oklahoma State; Back to their traditional role as spoilers with nothing really in it for them.  It's either bragging rights for 12 months or "wait till next year" for the Pokes.
Notre Dame; We're all Catholic for thith one, right Lou?  Hoping Touchdown Charlie thaves hith job and Jimmy Clauthen geth knocked out all at the thame time. 
Win and they get the Jeweled Shillelagh.  Lose and they get Donna Shalala (yikes!)
