A@M have no passing game. Reed came in fresh after the half and just out ran LSU's wore down depleted defense. 8 receptions in the entire game isn't exactly success on offense.
As a SCAR fan, to pick South Carolina to win is just wish casting. I don’t think that much will change offensively for South Carolina to make plays against A&M’s defense and that’s really where the game comes down to. SCAR’s defense is good but I think they’ll be short rested due to A&M forcing a lot of punts
Everyone in College Station has been saying "trap game" since Sunday... can't be a trap when everyone sees it coming a mile off. Respect to SC, they're no chumps, but TAMU picks up the dub one week at a time.
I don't think people give Reed much of a chance in the passing game, but he can throw the ball if he needs to and is less one dimensional than he showed last week. He is getting better at reading the defense and taking what they give him. TAMU might not win this game but I'm excited about Reed moving forward.
A home night game , have to go South Carolina…. If you watched aTm last week , you saw LSU shut them down 2 1/2 qtrs. And then LSU helped it all fall apart by turning the ball over again & again , giving aTm short fields to score..aTm is a good team no doubt but the hype up is a little inflated if you actually know how much LSU helped them.
How can there be "hype up" for A&M when every major sports caster, and every blogger has picked against A&M every game this season? I see no one hyping A&M, or even alluding that they are anything but mediocre to average!!
The key for South Carolina is to start quick and put the pressure on A&M. It’s hard to keep A&M offense to 20 points you gotta score a bunch of points to win.
I would nit sleep on the gamecocks at night in willy b. But it all comes down to offensive playcalls. South carolina play calls are lacking. If they can get offense together they could win
These teams play every year. Funny how no one brings up the 9-1 A&M series lead vs SC. They act like A&M has never won @ WB several times with less talented teams that weren't as well coached as this one...The A&M DL vs the SC OL is a mismatch.
Completely agree They think this is the 22’ A&M team where everyone was beating us lol All they can talk about is how good SC defense is(which it is) but never had bad their offense looks SC doesn’t even have any quality wins Obviously not a team you sleep on, but I expect A&M to come out on top
Can you actually point to a single time where A&M had a less talented team? These teams started playing when Spurrier was on his way out and I'm not sure SC has had a more talented roster a single time since then.
I'm saying that this is the most talented and well coached A&M team to visit Columbia in this series...Anything could happen but, it's not like A&M and Elko don't know what theyre walking into @ WB AGAINST A FAMILIAR FOE. They'll be more than ready....
TAMU started playing SC at the end of the Spurrier era, right after we lost most of the players that made those last few years under Spurrier so good. And then we were absolute shit for the next several years under Muschamp. With the turnover rates and transfer portal the way they are, historical records mean almost nothing. Yes TAMU is 9-1 against SC all time, but they're 2-1 against Shane Beamer, and 0-1 against Beamer at Willy B. Not saying that you won't beat us, just pointing out that historical record doesn't count for much and can be spun any direction you want to tell the story you want.
Hopevember starts @ Willy B @night, aka “Coliseum of Chaos in the Cockpit” !!! Field goal fiesta with each defense getting a score… Kroger and Beamer ball are better on ST! 19-16! 😂 Refs doesn’t cost us on this one (See LSU Grrrrrrr) let’s go Gamecocks!
South Carolina has the number 16th ranked run defense. Reed isn't going to light it up on the ground like he did LSU. On the road it ain't going to happen in bunches like last week. Then you figure in A@M only completed 8 passes against LSU. That's not a recipe for success week in week out.
So Josh’s JP poll computer has the 10th best team favored over the 25th best team by 8 points. A&M is 12th in the JP poll, SC is just outside top 25. We can assume the neutral field per JP poll would be roughly A&M -8 based on those facts. So we can arrive at the conclusion that the JP Poll gives Williams Bryce stadium a 10 point swing over neutral. JP Poll is not without flaws folks holy crap
I'd love for Elko to start Weigman and see where hes at, (kind of like the Mizzou game) Then put in Reed. I'd play both Qb's different plays. Mix and Match. Just my thought. But i agree either a low scoring game..... or A&M runs away.
If you give Wiegman time in the pocket he will pick you apart, if you can put pressure on him, he doesn't do as well. I just have to see what South Carolina's defensive line does.
SC is as good as we’ll face all season on defense. Don’t think anyone else is as good, even ND. This game does scare me and I hope our players come in ready for a fight. This will be a tough environment to get a W.
Hopevember starts @ Willy B aka Coliseum of Chaos !!! Field goal fiesta with each defense getting a score… Kroger and Beamer are better on ST! 16-13! 😂 let’s go Gamecocks!
Josh Josh Josh. May i call you Josh? Josh, this game is going to be a race to 20. First team that gets there wins. I know USC's Stadium is the real deal and their defense, but i still like A&M's offensive ability to get to 20 more than USC's.
I think the ones who want A&M to win has been picking against them to keep the drive alive. For Josh, it will prove him right about what he said about what TAMU should be.
Another problem you didn’t mention is SC has an awful OC. D Lo calls the same play over and over again so something will need to change there. The biggest part of our failure at offense is turnover and creativity with the OC.
Have to agree with this logic as far as the spread. This game will truly tell us if A&M has truly bought in and is locked in. If not, it’s gonna be a long night
This game is kinda like the Arkansas game in that i dont get why youd pick against A&M until they prove they can consistently win against A&M. The only A&M loss in this series is from 2022 and even then they almost came back after the worst start ive ever seen
Josh said the same about LSU having a letdown against Arkansas after beating Ole Miss. I think Josh will be wrong again. A&M wins by 10. A&M vs UT will be a Top 10 matchup. -LSU fan.
South Carolina going to lose 4 of last their 5 games, finish 5-7. Note: he is not putting any money on that prediction, scared if real money is in the line.
If you go back and watch A&Ms games, you'll see that their defense takes awhile to warm up. If SC can score early (especially through the air) then they very well could win this game. A&M should be worried.
I don’t think they’re worried, they are probably as hyped as they have been in a long time. Their OC is going to come out with so many RPOs it’s going to make SCs defensive super confused.
@@patrickbecker2788 We definitely are worried. That’s part of being an Aggie! Coach Elko said this will be our toughest game so far this season. He knows how big of a trap game this is.
As usual this season, Gamecocks win unless they event new and unique ways to lose - something Beamer’s teams are very creative at. That hot little skinny new quarterback back from A&M will probably get his ass decked - either way.
Honestly, I think Conner is shook. I don’t know why or what has caused it; but it is what it is. Marcel is that guy. He just has that “it” factor. It’s written all over his face. No moment is too big for this young man. He’s going to be special. It may take a year or two but he’s going to shine.
@JPW-97 I totally agree. I wondering if Klein was holding back on the playbook vs Arkansas because they wanted to give Connor the chance to be QB1. All reed need is to complete a few passes to keep the defense honest.
Everyone has picked A&M to lose each week and they keep proving you wrong. It’ll be more of the same. A&M has won most SEC games by double digits and will continue that trend this weekend.
@ it wasn’t that different than what LSU had faced against Arkansas so they had seen this type of QB before. You can prepare but ultimately whether you’re capable of actually stopping it is another matter. SC has a pretty good defense so it’ll be interesting to see. A&M has a really good oline and rushing game so it won’t just come down to QB play.
Thank you for picking against Texas A&M. Because we tend to win whenever you pick against us. Keep it up.
As a former Aggie, thank you for picking against us.

Wouldn't surprise me if this game went either way, A&M should win It though. Give me my Gamecocks 31-27🐔🤙
I believe Sumlin and Jimbo would lose, but I think an Elko will win a close one.
