It is hard to tell how good this Texas A&M team is as both times they took on heavyweights it was clear that this team still has some training to do. \u00a0 <\/p>\n
#21 Texas A&M Aggies (5-2) vs Auburn Tigers (1-6)<\/strong> ATS Matchup Stats<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Gambling Insight!<\/a> |\u00a0Buy Ray’s Picks!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n This is their first run through the SEC and they should be able to grab a victory this week to get to the winning side of the ledger in conference play. \u00a0This is the first and easiest of three straight road contest so hopefully they will be focused and not looking ahead to playing undefeated Mississippi State and Alabama.<\/p>\n Aggie QB Johnny Manziel may be called \u201cJohnny Football\u201d but he wasn\u2019t much of a man against LSU last week. \u00a0At home he threw three interceptions while not finding any running room against a tough defense. <\/p>\n \u00a0Considering he has become the leading rusher that was a problem even though seldom used back Ben Malena ripped off 82 yards on the ground. \u00a0This week against Auburn will show us if Manziel can handle adversity and respond.<\/p>\n If the Aggies are to enjoy a successful first season in the SEC then they have to have this one and make a statement. \u00a0The SEC is a have and have not conference and it appears A&M is in the former category but this team has slid in the past. \u00a0There is new leadership and this is the game to show what that it is worth and where the program is heading. [soliloquy id=”82219″]<\/p>\n Wow have things deteriorated quickly at Auburn. \u00a0The Tigers have a lone victory (and a close one) \u00a0against Louisiana-Monroe for the season. \u00a0Last week they hit the road and were outclassed by Vanderbilt of all teams. \u00a0The Tigers are looking at a potentially winless season in the SEC and their few close calls have put other teams into question rather than raise the status of the Tigers.<\/p>\n Auburn may have the worst QB situation of any team in the \u201cpower\u201d conferences. \u00a0The combination of Kiehl Frazier and Clint Moseley has thrown for 3 touchdowns with 11 interceptions. \u00a0This team can run the ball with three backs averaging better than 5 yards per carry but when you are putting yourself in a hole time and time again it is hard to commit to the running game.<\/p>\n I wouldn\u2019t have thought that Auburn could be a 14 point dog at home this year. \u00a0The defense was supposed to carry the team as the offense steadily improved. \u00a0\u00a0The defense has been solid but the offense is absolutely abysmal. \u00a0Those 14 points are enticing but I am not sure the offense can put up even the 13 they scored against Vandy last week. \u00a0I wouldn\u2019t bet on these Tigers right now.<\/p>\n Spread Pick: \u00a0Texas A&M -14 Aggies vs Tigers NCAA Football Spread\/Handicapping It is hard to tell how good this Texas A&M team is as both times they took on heavyweights it was clear that this team still has some training to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":180,"featured_media":24048,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[51832,2153,324,325,766,770,56861,3623,56862,3679],"class_list":["post-56558","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ncaa-football","tag-aggies-vs-tigers","tag-auburn-tigers","tag-college-football-odds","tag-college-football-picks","tag-ncaa-football-lines","tag-ncaa-football-predictions","tag-ohio-st-vs-auburn","tag-texas-am-aggies","tag-texas-am-aggies-vs-auburn-tigers","tag-week-9"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56558","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/180"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=56558"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56558\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":56587,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56558\/revisions\/56587"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24048"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=56558"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=56558"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=56558"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
