Preview

The Aggies opened the season with big win against UCLA and then last week beating a tough Auburn team on the road. We all knew they could score points with an offense that could both run and pass but against the Tigers showed us they could also play defense when they held the Tigers to 9 points over the last three quarters of the game while running and passing for over 200 yards against a solid defense. The Razorbacks were almost upset by Louisiana Tech in their first game then won in a shootout at TCU before having their offense and defense playing the way people expected against Texas St. The oddsmakers have the Aggies a six point favorite and according to Covers.com consensus and analysis, 54% of the public believe they will cover that number while three quarters believe this will be a shootout and are backing the over which is 49.5. The Aggies have won the last four meetings between these teams including winning the last two games in OT. Maybe a shootout is in the cards for this game.
