Think it’s pretty fair, 5-2 in favor of Aggies. Mostly close scores, but if we can only muster 14 or 17 pts, people are going to obliterate TVD.

[Go Canes!!]

After dropping 200 pounds of dead weight at OC and a revamping our offensive line with two All American caliber players we aint putting up no 14-17 points.

 

[Rickd]

Canes win ... 38-24. We back.

 

[Home Slice]

Too soon to tell. That said, I'd love for Us to obliterate Jumbo and his well paid team. Go Canes

 

[Empirical Cane]

Win or lose against AtM, it tells us very little in that moment...more so for Miami than Aggies.

We won't have more confidence (in a good way) as to "who Miami is in 2023" until after UNC.

 

[JHallCanes]

A&M lost a few **** good players but they are about to start reaping the rewards (or the disaster) from that insane class they signed

They could be a lot better this year than anyone is expecting, so both teams have a lot of question marks

Our OL vs their DL probably the story here

What doesn’t get discussed that much about the game last year is that we moved the ball up and down on them most of the game and just couldn’t get in the end zone.

That Tyrique inexplicable muffed punt still burns me up.

???? It was discussed ad nauseam after that game ... we dominated statistically in every category except TD's. Gattis sucked. Never tried to use our tall TE's and WR's in the red zone. Major fail on Mario's part for permitting Gattis to continue calling plays in THAT game let alone the rest of the season.

 

[Echtcane]

A win could be a big boost for program perception, but no one should panic if we lose. They are super talented and can play vastly different from week to week. Do we get the team that lost to Appalachian St or the one that beat LSU by 15?

Agreed, but I was speaking in terms of the perception and recollection of the game in retrospect by national people, and how it effects the perception of this upcoming game.

 

[IndayArtHauz]

Last year was closer than this year will be. Jumbo realized winning matters.

 

[Empirical Cane]

"...Our OL vs their DL probably the story here"

For this year, advantage AtM.

 

[JHallCanes]

For this year, advantage AtM.

A&M is a goofy team for sure. With that recruiting class I wouldn’t be surprised if they were really **** good this year

But if their luck is like ours has been it could also be pretty mediocre

Eventually things will come together there. They are stacking a ton of talent and have a staff that has won a title and produced multiple heisman so they know HOW to get it done and are not lacking in off field support. It is really tough to win 10+ in the SEC, but I think they will start taking care of business outside of conference sooner than later and win the games they should be winning. It’s not like we don’t have a chance, I think we have a good chance, but right now we (and all but a few in the country) are a team they should beat if paper can meet reality.

love the confidence.

 

[rustywalkedaway]

I have no idea how anyone predicts this game. There is simply no baseline for either team now.

 

[Manfred_Cane]

33-24 UM wins. Let's stop the nonsense please.
