2021 College Football - GAME WEEK!
Y’all ever notice how when a team is expected to have a good season it’s always because they have a “cupcake schedule”? It’s not: “Y’all play some good teams but are expected to be really good so you should win almost all of them.”-Or something to that effect. Doesn’t seem to apply to just one team either.

Or we are told how easy Texas' schedule is and are told 75,000 times how the SEC is another level because every team is vastly superior to Texas and OU. Then we look at the schedule and it is the exact opposite.
As usual my last post was return fire. I initially said nice things about both teams. Lol.

All will be revealed when Texas and OU start playing in the SEC.

It sure would be a great year if it did come true. I am so bad at predictions that I don't bother. 10 wins for Texas would be fantastic and would likely mean they made it to the conference championship. I guess I would be ok with nine. Anything less will just be another year of mediocrity.
I honestly don't see how everyone can be so hyped on the Aggies. But then again, I don't follow their depth chart. It just seems they have some very big holes to fill on offense. But that is why we watch the games. Nobody knows.

10-2 for the Aggies would be a disappointment this year, for me any way.
I may be in the minority but I'm glad Mond is gone. The deer in the head lights, missed reads, inaccurate long range passes I can live without. Last year was pretty cool, but how great would it be to have King coming in with at least some real game experience?
King should have the accuracy to stretch the field - and that opens the run game - and that burns the clock - and that keeps the very good Aggie defense fresh on the sideline. Remember the 4th quarter Sumlin defenses? Completely gassed and couldn't stop anybody.
Hard to predict a W over Alabama in any year, but if it's going to happen this year looks pretty good.
Playing LSU in November is a complete unknown right now. They could be a 50/50 team or undefeated come Thanksgiving. They have ridiculous talent. Their drop off in 2020 wasn't just players (they whiffed at QB) but mostly the loss of the coaches that put 2019 together. So right now we won't know what we're walking into.
Arkansas will win some games they aren't expected to win. They always play the Aggies tough, so hopefully they don't shock anybody that weekend. I think they give Texas all they can handle and maybe more. Their DC good and both Texas and TAMU are breaking in new QBs.
Ole Miss - if they get anything even close to resembling a defense they are going to be dangerous. They put up around 45 pts per game last year - they can score. To beat them the defense has to be spectacular (Aggie D is looking that way) and/or you have to have an offense to match. Jimbo's ball control offense could work to keep them off the field, but it can't be the only thing that wins that game
Miss State - Mike Leach has the abilities, does he have the athletes? Never overlook the pirate.
Auburn has a great QB and RB combo. They have talent. What is Harsin going to do with it on the biggest stage? The expectations EVERY YEAR for the Auburn coach are to beat Alabama. He’s already on the hot seat and hasn’t coached a game yet.
Georgia has all the talent in the world but Smart has never utilized it the way Dabo and Saban. They wouldn't have beaten us last time if the ref's would have called the game worth a C*RAP. I think if the Aggies can beat Alabama and LSU, then we can beat Georgia.
BUT - Don't overlook Kentucky. They have a great running game and defense - if they can stay healthy they might not be out of the conversation for the east.
Bonus if you actually read any of this this. I took a spot on our local AM radio station on Wednesdays from 8-9am for CFB discussion. Tune in on your computer Sports Radio Corpus Christi 1230AM – I did my second week yesterday and it is a ton of fun.
I'm so ready for CFB

People need to lighten up and have some fun. Don't take **** so seriously.
