Bama vs A&M...Time to Rock, Indy

[Shoalzie]

I'm avoiding TV coverage of this until the game actually starts...I hate knowing that I'll get sick of the hype.

If there's a guy that can right a wrong from the year before, it's Sabin. Bama wins but by single digits...I'm thinking 31-24.

[Moby Dick]

I'm hoping bama's D breaks both of Manziels legs.


don't think aTm's D can stop any offense that's worth a shit.

[Mikey]

A&M goes up 24-6 at halftime.
Manziel exits the field making "show me the money" taunts at Bama players.
Manziel suffers a concussion and several broken ribs in the third quarter.
Bama wins 34-24.

OK it's ridiculous and a first for me, pulling for a Bama win, but it's my fantasy and I'm sticking with it.

Weird. When I was doing my Pickem picks, I guessed the same final, 34-24. If I'm starting to think like Mikey, it's time to start work on that living will.

Every Bama player has had to watch the video of last years game for the last 10 months. You are giving Nick Saban 10 months to stew over the last game? This game is going to get ugly for the aggys. A&M cannot stop the run. I watched Sam Houston St.....a FBS school run the ball and throw it against that vaunted aggy D at Pyle Field. Bama is no Sam Houston St.

Johnny Douchbag is going to get his teeth kicked in. The "biggest" game ever at Pyle this year will turn out like the last few "biggest" games ever at Pyle field.....aggys lose. I see it 49-20.

Roll MF'n Tide

Here's what I see happening. First off, Saban doesn't have a very good record in games after byes, so this popular notion that he's such a monster game planner when he has extra time to prepare is a little overblown. That said, he'll come in with a good game plan on paper, but it won't matter because Johnny Doucheball will make all the running-around-like-a-chicken-with-its-head-cut-off kinda plays that you can't prep for. A&M will move the ball and score. So will Bama. It'll be something of a shootout giving A&M the advantage. They'll score last and win by an edge finer than the tip of Johnny's money making Sharpie. He'll run off the field throwing up double barreled middle finger blasts to the cameras, then step up to the podium at the presser and tell the media to fuck off before abruptly walking out. Then he'll find AJ McCarron's girlfriend and bang her, and AJ will probably be cool with it.

A&M 34
Bama 33

Could the QB matchup be between 2 bigger doucheflutes?

And my prediction - Bama beats them like a drum, Johnny Sleazeball whines and cries, the bulk of pollsters decide to protect their vested interest by voting Bama and aTm #1 and #2 in next week's poll.

[L45B]

I predict a very non-competitive game. Bama is going to have this thing wrapped up by halftime.

Tide 47
A&M 20

[indyfrisco]

I predict a lot of backpedalling and not coming correct in this thread.

A&M 38
Alabama 31

[King Crimson]

roll tide.

atm has shown itself to be eminently beatable at Kyle over the last decade or more.

this is a better aggie team...still. it's not impossible to win there. myth is a myth about Kyle. bama won't shake after the 12th man blows their new rich kid wad early on. However, if Aggie comes out and serves notice....then it's a whole new world. especially for Texas.

good game i hope, either way.

Could the QB matchup be between 2 bigger doucheflutes?

Just curious...how do you figure McCarron is a "doucheflute"? The goofy tattoos?

He seems like a decent kid to me.

He's definitely less annoying than Manziel...and he's got the better trophy case (so to speak).

[Shoalzie]

Game on!

[Mikey]

I predict a lot of facial close ups of Johnny Manziel, to the point where I'm ready to puke.

[King Crimson]

somebody cover evans tide? nice throws though.

here we go...14-0 aggies.

lot of football left to play.

[Moby Dick]

blood in the water now....

[King Crimson]

blood in the water now....

yup. whole complexion of the game has changed....

[Truman]

Color me a Manziel hater (it's an A&M thing). That said - given today's performance - I'm of the opinion that this kid simply fucks with people every time he steps on the field. Made a believer out of me. Jay-zus...

[Shoalzie]

Come on, cheap touchdown!

[Mikey]

I said 70 in the pickem. Way too low.
