This will be an interesting test for both teams. Missouri is 6-0, but people aren't convinced they're that good. Texas A&M is 5-1, but they've struggled in many of their victories. How good is Missou? How good are the Aggies? Do we find the answers to these questions on Saturday?

Aggies will win 28-27 over the Tigers.

Ah, going for the upset, eh desertrat? A&M hasn't impressed me, especially vs. Army. What makes you think they can beat Missou?

[AZAggie]

We will either squeak it out by a point or two, or get blown out by 3td's or more. The defense is head and shoulders above the crap we called a defense last year, but they are still a long, long way from living up to the Wrecking Crew defenses of the late 80's and early to mid 90's. Playing at home will help. I am still not impressed with our game plans, especially in the 1st half of the game. We seem to come out flat for what ever reason. It is good to see that we actually seem to make half time adjustments and play better in the 2nd half. It was not always that way.

I think Missouri is due for a bad game and the 12th man in College Station could intimidate them. Road wins are hardest to come by and Missouri is a young team making them more likely to fold in a tough game. Aggies have a lot of talent and are due for a big win at home, this game could be just what they need.

[Lefty Noob]

Okay, that makes sense to me. But I'm afraid I'm gonna have to disagree. Missouri's QB Daniel is a real talented kid, and I'm not convinced the Aggies have the defensive personnel to handle him for 60 minutes. Give me Missou in a 17-10 nailbiter, with Daniel running for the game winning score.

Aggies win 25-19 knocking Missouri from the ranks of unbeaten teams. Big win for Dennis Franchione.

Good win for the Ag's. Unfortunately I got a crappy PAC10 game here in AZ and my 8yr old had a game at the same time. I didn't get to see any of it.

I get the new york and LA channels as well as local. The new york channel switched to this game from ohio state-michigan state for most of the 4th quarter. Javorskie Lane looked very good at RB for the Aggies. Very big and physical RB with amazing foot speed for his size.

A&M is now 6-1 with a 'W' over a ranked opponent under their belt. Bet they turn up in the top 25 this week.

[desertrat]

This looks like a tough game when my Huskers go to Texas A&M later this season. Aggies have a pretty good team.

[AZAggie]

While they are much better than last year, they can't afford to overlook anyone. Okie State had a nice win today. The Aggies better be ready when they go to Stillwater next week.

[GoldenAg]

I Think if they can knock off Okie State and Baylor on the road, they should have a shot at the Big 12 south title. Oklahoma and Nebraska will be tough at home. BUt I think they'er beatable. After that, they'd be walking into Austin to compete against Texas for the BIg 12 South. That's alot of "ifs," but its the first time in a long time that they've had a fighting chance at getting a Big 12 title.
I actually think they'll have a tougher time with Baylor on the road than Okie State. And now that Peterson's out at OU, Nebraska should be the harder of their home games.

Agreed. We always have problems with Baylor. Nebraska is beatable, especially since we have them at home. With Peterson out, OU is going to have big offensive issues so we should be able to take that game. Things are lining up nicely.

How about the ball control offense yesterday? We had the ball for over 40 minutes yesterday. That is one of the biggest differences between this years team and last year. The offense is controlling the ball and allowing the defense to catch their breath. Last year, the defense was on the field a lot, beause we either went 3 and out or scored quickly.
