No. 17 Texas A&M Aggies vs. Texas Longhorns Preview <\/strong><\/p>\n

On Thanksgiving in a Big 12 match up Texas (5-6) plays host to 17th<\/sup> ranked Texas A&M (8-3). College football lines have Texas A&M as 3.5-point favorites in this game with a total of 47.5.<\/p>\n

In their last games Texas A&M beat Nebraska 9-6 in a barnburner and Texas got back in the W column with an easy 51-17 win over Florida Atlantic.<\/p>\n

This has not been a good season for Texas to say the least and after snapping their 4-game losing streak last week they have to beat Texas A&M in their season finale just to be bowl eligible.<\/p>\n

This is the first game between these 2 teams since 1998 that Texas was not ranked and the Longhorns beat the Aggies last season 49-39 and then played in the BCS title game. If the Longhorns lose this game it will be their first 5-game Big 12 losing streak for the first time ever and they will not play in a bowl for the first time since 1997.<\/p>\n

The Aggies have had a great season and will play in a good bowl, but if they lose it will hurt their post-season positioning. A&M is 2-2 this season against ranked teams, but they have won their last 2 including beating Nebraska last week.<\/p>\n

Heading into this Big 12 match up Texas A&M is 7-4 ATS while Texas has not been a good betting team at all going 3-8 ATS on the season. While the Aggies have covered the spread 4 times in their last 5 games against the Longhorns the underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 games between the 2 teams and the home team is 10-2 ATS in the last 12 games.<\/p>\n

Texas A&M and their 11th<\/sup> ranked passing offense is led by QB Ryan Tannehill, who passed for 172 yards with 0 TD and 0 INT against Nebraska last week. The Huskers have a great pass defense and the Longhorns do as well ranking 11th<\/sup> in the nation so the Aggies\u2019 QB will have his work cut out for him. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Tannehill has been getting a lot of help lately from the rushing offense and especially RB Cyrus Gray, who had 137 rushing yards last week, which was the 5th<\/sup> straight game he has rushed for over 100 yards. Texas has a decent run defense ranking 31st<\/sup> in the nation.<\/p>\n

While Texas has a good defense and a pretty good offense they have been killed by turnovers this season. Longhorns\u2019 QB Garrett Gilbert played well last week against Florida Atlantic passing for 263 yards with 2 TD and 0 INT. However, he only has 9 TD\u2019s this season and 15 INT\u2019s. He may have a big game this Turkey Day, as the A&M pass defense only ranks 97th<\/sup> in the nation. Gilbert cannot turn the ball over and if he can keep from throwing the ball to guys with a Texas A&M uniform Texas has a legit chance to win.<\/p>\n

Where Texas A&M is strong on defense is against the run ranking 15th<\/sup> in the nation. Last week in the HUGE win over Nebraska the Aggies held the awesome rushing offense of Nebraska to only 142 yards on the ground and they forced 2 turnovers. The Longhorns do not have a great rushing offense, but if they can pick up some yards it will take a lot of pressure off Gilbert.<\/p>\n

There is a 40% chance of rain in this game and if the rain does come down the team that run the ball has the advantage.<\/p>\n

Texas has had a season that they would like to forget, but I think their pride will vault them to a home win, as Texas not making a bowl is just not going to happen, Gilbert will put up solid numbers and the Texas D will play well, as they will win this game in a minor upset.<\/p>\n

Betting Trends<\/strong><\/p>\n

Texas A&M is 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games, 3-7 ATS in their last 10 road games, and has an Over record of 5-2 in their last 7 games as a favorite.
\nTexas is 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games as an underdog, 0-4 ATS in their last 4 Big 12 games, 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games, and has an Under record of 7-3 in their last 10 home games.<\/p>\n
