Wearing them down sounds good, but when you have a passing QB, no matter how good they are, they still have to find their rhythm for every game they play. So hopefully there will be run/pass plays evenly mixed in there so when needed, TL can hang them out to wonder how did he do that.

Fans say a lot of stuff when a game isn't going the way they expect it to go, but it is my belief that the game went last week exactly the way our coaches wanted it to go. I personally don't think that it was meant for Trevor or our receivers to show anything of what they are capable of. Showing what you have when it's not necessary, is giving your next week opponents film study that they shouldn't have had when you can win without showing it. The only thing that Trevor showed last week was that he can hall A S S if he has to, and that was bc Trevor didn't want anybody scoring from a mistake that he made. But I think that helped him more than it hurt him bc, he did stop that pick from scoring, and it really earned him a lot of respect from his defensive team mates, and they have said as much without actually saying it. That will be a good thing down the road if they really have to face adversity!!!

Given what this year's DL makeup is, last week's GT game gave BV alot of fodder for working against Mond on the ground game. That GT QB and his main RB ripped many good runs off against the Tiger DL until a few adjustments shut them down. When GT finally got the ball aired out it was mainly against the non-starters and 3rd stringers. So I think the big bugaboo this week is the secondary coverage to keep Mond having to make the decision to do a QB option vs airing it out. If the Tigers secondary shuts down the air game expect the score to be more lopsided than this prediction. Personally though I think A&M a good team and definitely better than GT was last week, I believe they'll manage maybe 3 good drives for scores with quite a few punts once the Tiger DL settles in for the game.

My scoring figures 48-21 Tigers or worse if our boys come with their shoes tied and their determination set. If some of the youngsters get nervous and cause more of those penalties the game might be a bit closer, but I severely doubt Dabo will choose to take out the starters early this week so the game is going to be quite different than what we saw against GT.
