Comments

In this game, I believe that Texas A&M has the better offense and stronger defense. Auburn has been kind of shaky this season. They could easily be 3-5 or even 2-6 without the some of the beneficial calls of replay in several games. Conclusive becomes inconclusive and it has just happened to benefit Auburn more often than their opponents. I mean not disparage Auburn, their people didn’t officiate the games. Just pointing how close the Tigers came to losing in several games. Any team that gets a call that benefits them is going to take it. I think A&M wins this one by a touchdown but you gotta be careful at Auburn. The Tigers do not lose very much in Jordan-Hare.
