According to JWG's preseason analysis, Nebraska has the best LBs and dline in the big12, better than Texas. So they should be able to shutdown a&m's running game.
Venue: Kyle Field, College Station
Time: 2:30pm CST, ABC Regional Coverage
Line: Nebraska -1
Thoughts:
Just 48 hours ago, almost everyone had a different opinion on this game. However, Nebraska took care of business yesterday to all but wrap up the North Division, while Texas A&M essentially gave up the game to Oklahoma with very questionable play calling in the fourth quarter. Nebraska needs a win to head into the Colorado game and Kansas City to face the Longhorns a second time confident, while Coach Fran needs a win to show that he can win the "big games" - he is 0-8 against Nebraska, Texas, and Oklahoma in his career.
Prediction:
Nebraska 38, Aggies 31
GO BIG RED!

Our front 4 has been playing pretty good lately, but our LB's are pretty banged up right now and lacking depth. 2 of our best barely played against missouri, if at all (McKeon and Octavien). Our offense has found reliable playmakers in BJax, Mo Purify, and Lucky. a&m is definitely beatable, even at their crib. Fran is not the right coach for a&m, and he will get out-coached by Callahan. Nebraska-31 texas a&m-17.
Neb has opened up -1 with a 53.5 o/u.
If Neb can stop the run - they'll be fine.
Which team will show up? The team that held UT and USC to barely over 100 rushing or the team that allowed OSU to run for 260-some?
A&M wins this game if they STICK with running the ball in the red zone.
A&M 21
nebraska 20
Nebraska definitely will demolish A&M if they play like they did vs Texas and MIzzou (<- just because it was their latest game). if they don't play like they did vs Texas then, they will still win just will be a closer game. also, from what i saw from McGee A&M he really isn't that great, and i still don't get why aggies think he's that great.

Baylor? Do you mean Missouri???? Baylor isn't in our rotation this year....
...and i don't get why you are allowed to post on this site? you, obviously, don't know anything about football. McGee is a winner...its not his fault his line was unable to pass block that game.
yes i meant Missouri. i was watching the TX Tech-Baylor game and the Nebraska-Mizzou game at the same time.
a winner vs...??? Army? Citadel?most definately not a winner vs TX Tech, OU, Nebraska, or UT
...i heard a rumor they are actually going to play those last two games.yes i meant Missouri. i was watching the TX Tech-Baylor game and the Nebraska-Mizzou game at the same time.
a winner vs...??? Army? Citadel?

^Another tight game coming up for the ags. I really think they are the better team going against Nebraska, who I feel at this point are really overrated a bit. If Nebraska can play a whole game and not just show up for the 1st half, should be interesting. What I would really like to see is a&m establishing a downhill running game, you can wear out Nebraska doing that and should also open up play-action passes, downfield passes, etc. I stated in a earlier post that a&m would lose one of the two home games against ou and Nebraska, they lost against ou so I'm going with the ags in this one.
ags- 27
corn boys- 17
That's reasonable - I'll go with you on this one.

Got my tickets.....
Going to first Aggie basketball game on Friday too.
Life is good.
huskers up at the half.
any reason lane only has 4 carries for 8 yards so far? (at work, watching gamecast)
...i just got into Montana and am @ a bar watching the game, but i missed most of the first half. so i am not quite sure?
however, A&M just took the lead! YES!
A&M with the PICK!!!
Nebraska with the block on the FG.
4TH DOWN! MAKE OR BREAK FOR NEBRASKA! Completes a pass and they are still alive.
daaaamn. better block good on that extra point huskers!
what was the penalty on a&m for?
Looking worse for "Coach" Fran, and I love it.
Boy I'm happy it's basketball season though
