Texas A&M Aggies vs. No 6 Oklahoma Sooners Preview<\/strong><\/p>\n Texas A&M (5-3) had their 3-game winning streak snapped with an OT loss to Missouri last week and while OU still has a legit shot to play in a BCS bowl game the Aggies can play spoiler with an away win this Saturday in Norman. NCAAF lines have Oklahoma as 14-point home favorites with a total of 69.<\/p>\n In their last games Texas A&M lost a heartbreaker to Missouri 38-31 while Oklahoma crushed Kansas State 58-17.<\/p>\n Last season at home the Aggies beat the Sooners 33-19.<\/p>\n Oklahoma had a record setting game in the win over Kansas State with QB passing for a school record 505 yards and 5 TD and he has a great WR corps so the passing offense should not be a problem in this game facing a Texas A&M pass defense that ranks dead last in the nation.<\/p>\n OU got back on track in last week’s win, but it was costly, but they lost leading RB Dominique Whaley for the season with an ankle injury. RB Roy Finch and FB Trey Millard stepped up in his absence and while Texas A&M has a legit run defense ranking 21st in the nation the Aggies were torched on the ground last week giving up 284 rushing yards in the loss to Mizzou. [soliloquy id=”82219″]<\/p>\n With the issues the Aggies have on defense they may have to lean on their offense to bail them out. They have a well-balanced offense ranking 17th in the nation in passing yards per game and 16h in rushing yards per game. QB Ryan Tannehill and his 2 main targets of WR’s Ryan Swope and Jeff Fuller have to play well, especially if Jones has another big game in the air. OU ranks 53rd in the nation in pass defense.<\/p>\n One way to keep Jones on the sidelines is the run the ball well and that responsibility will fall on the A&M RB duo of Christine Michael, who has rushed for over 100 yards in 3 straight games, and Cyrus Gray, who have rushed for over 1,500 yards this season. OU held a great rushing team of Kansas State in check last week and if they can do so again they will win.<\/p>\n Betting Trends<\/strong><\/p>\n This season Oklahoma is 5-3 ATS and has an O\/U record of 5-3 and Texas A&M is 2-6 ATS and has an O\/U record of 5-3.<\/p>\n Texas A&M is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games overall, 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games against teams with a winning record, and has an Over record of 4-1 in their last 5 games.<\/p>\n Oklahoma is e 7-3 ATS in their last 10 home games, e 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games as a favorite of 10.5 points or more, and has an Over record of 4-1 in their last 5 games.<\/p>\n Jason’s Pick<\/strong>: The Aggies have only covered the spread one time in their last games against the Sooners in Oklahoma and I think that trend will not continue. A&M will have a big game through the air and while they will give up a lot of points they will score a lot of points. Take Texas A&M to cover and take the Over as well, as this game will be a shootout.<\/p>\n The CappersPicks.com college football weekly predictions pages!
