Total: 52.0
Texas A&M Aggies Betting Preview
Texas A&M is 11 and 0 for the first time since 1992, a year when pagers were cutting edge technology and the Aggies were apparently allergic to losing. Fast forward to now, and they still have one more mountain to climb if they want to secure their ticket to the SEC title game. You would think going undefeated in this conference earns you a first class pass to Atlanta. Not this year. The SEC decided chaos was more fun.
Coach Mike Elko understands the absurdity of the situation. His team is undefeated in league play, yet still needs one more win because the schedule and tiebreaker math turned into some kind of Sudoku puzzle nobody asked for. Regardless, the Aggies control their fate, their vibes, and potentially the most stressful cardio session Austin has seen since the invention of hot yoga.
Texas A&M knows they are playoff bound barring a meteor strike. But there is no sweeter way to punch their SEC title ticket than beating their bitter rival on Texas soil. Their offense has been steady, their defense has bullied people for three months, and the locker room clearly wants the perfect SEC record almost as badly as Aggie fans want to remind Texas who runs the Lone Star State.
Texas Longhorns Betting Preview
Texas sits at 8 and 3 and desperately needs this win to stay alive in the playoff conversation. Coach Steve Sarkisian refused to bite when asked about CFP hopes, which is coach speak for please stop asking me, I am begging you.
The Longhorns have been a roller coaster this season. They took a punch from Ohio State in week one, tripped over Florida, and got flattened by Georgia. Yet here they are, still swinging, still dangerous, and fresh off a 52 point performance that featured Arch Manning turning into a real life video game character. Passing touchdown, rushing touchdown, receiving touchdown, probably would have kicked an extra point if they let him.
Texas has firepower. Texas has motivation. Texas also knows the atmosphere in this rivalry game is going to be so intense that even the stadium nachos might feel pressure.
This is the kind of matchup the program dreams of. Beat the undefeated rival. Wreck their perfect SEC run. Stay alive in the national conversation. Make your fans run through brick walls.
Prediction
Rivalry energy will be sky high, both teams will take haymakers, and the trash talk will be elite. Texas is dangerous, but Texas A&M is steadier and has more ways to control tempo in a tight matchup where every yard matters.
