I’ve been right on a few of my predictions on some games this season but I’m gonna hold off on this one because I see two different scenarios and I can’t decide between the two. I just get the feel that if we don’t come out and play an A game then we’ll drop this one. It’s going to be a tough game. On paper you should win this game but this will come down to the wire I’m thinking.

Gotta clean up missed shots better than we did against LSU. A&M is the best offensive rebounding team in the conference. Limit their second chance opportunities and all of a sudden scoring will become really tough for them. Also have to try and speed the game up a bit. Can’t let them dictate the game at a snail’s pace like we allowed SC to do.

They have excellent guards. Need to keep them in check somewhat.

The outcome of this game may come down to how well ZZZ stays in front of Taylor. If Taylor and their other perimeter players are regularly driving the lane and getting the ball on the backboard then A&M will be a difficult out as they will offensive rebound us to death. Make their guards take perimeter shots or their bigs operate from the post

College Station is still one of the toughest places to play in the SEC.

For some reason, I don’t feel too good about this game.

However, Dalton Knecht seems to score well on the road.

Hopefully this game isn’t a trap.

Knecht is due for an off game. Can't count on JJJ and Vescovi. Unfortunately, I don't see this one going our way. aTm takes it by 7-10.

Just gotta freaking SHOW UP and do our job... not disappearing and going on cold spells ... several players need to show up and play like they are capable of... Play with confidence. We don't and we lose. Simple. Everyone wants to take us down right now, so we have to bring it (which we should be able to do at this point in the season) every game.

If we can grind this one out and get the W, we should be in good shape the next four games and be poised for a great game at home against Pearl...

just accept the fact that the VOLS and every other college basketball team will have cold spells every game. It’s the rare exception to not.

The last time we were 1.5 point favorites on the road against a team in Maroon, we lost. I hope we play well and win this game. We need help from JJJ & SV; the whole scoring burden doesn't need to be on Knecht.

I feel like this game will go to the team with the least amount of fouls and/or whose second team players show up. We look better on paper, but our aggressiveness, sometimes, gets the better of us. Keep out of foul trouble and we should be good and get a solid Q1 win. If that's the case, we win by 10+, but the opposite could be the case if foul trouble hits us early. Hope they let the men play ball and put on a good show.

They’ll let them play in the first half. Then call everything in the 2nd half.

Historically, we have struggled in Aggie land in Basketball. We will see this year though. We need this one to stay in SEC hunt.
