You would have to go back many years to find the last time Baylor was favored(-8.5) over Tex A&M. d1g1t

I don't know last time Baylor was favored in this game, but I went back in the archives, and Baylor hasn't had too much luck with Texas A&M. And they haven't beaten the Aggies by more than 8.5 points since 1980.

I'm hearing that Art Briles has really got his players buying into his system. I know they gave the Texas secondary fits yesterday.

Briles is known for being a good motivator. I wish I had a better idea of the team morale for the Aggies. Any of you College Station guys have any insight?

I actually think when a team like Nebraska or A&M gets behind quick against an OU, they don't quit, but the writing is on the wall and they start thinking about next week. It worked for Nebraska yesterday, so I think A&M will be in a decent frame of mind. There aren't going to be many punts in this contest.

This is too many points for Baylor to be laying. Baylor is an improved team no doubt, but they are still getting massively outgained in conference play. This is not a team you lay this kind of wood with unless the opponent has Iowa State on the front of the jersey. Either play A&M or pass. I'll be playing A&M here small probably.

This is actually quite a rivalry game for Baylor. Only 1 hour separates the schools. Briles knows this is a type of "program building" game. If he can get this win, it will fast forward his building of the program, mainly in recruiting. I'm a HUGE believer in Art Briles. I do think the line will come down to 6ish prior to kickoff, and at that time I'll be all over Baylor.
