Point Spread Pick
Texas A&M -7.0(-105)

Following a mutual Week 10 bye, the undefeated Texas A&M Aggies head to Columbia, Missouri for a date with the Tigers. Prior to their week off, the Aggies decimated the LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge 49-25 to remain unbeaten, which resulted in Brian Kelly being sent packing. Meanwhile, Missouri lost at Vanderbilt despite outgaining the Commodores by more than 100 yards. To make matters worse, the Tigers lost starting QB Beau Pribula to an ankle injury, which will thrust true freshman Matt Zollers into the starting role against the #3 team in the country. 

I’m not going to overthink this one. While Zollers seems to have a strong arm and the upside to become a solid college quarterback, I have a hard time seeing it all pan out against this Texas A&M team. The Aggies have a mean pass rush that currently sits top-10 in both sacks and tackles for loss on the season as a whole, as well as 4th nationally in havoc generated outside of garbage time since Week 6. Moreover, they are sound against the run, having allowed just 1 SEC team to average more than 3.5 yards per rush attempt against them. 

On the other side of the ball, Texas A&M continues to maintain its explosive profile. The Aggies gained 5.6 yards per rush and 9.6 yards per pass against LSU last week, and they now sit top-20 in plays of at least 20 yards this season. Missouri has succeeded at taking away chunk plays thus far, but the Aggies feel matchup-proof at this point – specifically their wide receivers Mario Craver and KC Concepcion. For what it’s worth, Craver and Concepcion are 2 of the 3 highest-graded receivers in the SEC per PFF. 

If Pribula were healthy, this spread would probably be around 3 points in favor of Texas A&M. However, without an experienced quarterback, the line currently sits around a touchdown. If you believe Zollers is underrated and equipped to handle the challenges presented by Texas A&M in this matchup, then you may see a bit of value in Missouri – but I have no reason to doubt Mike Eklo, Marcel Reed and the Aggies in this spot.

Game Totals Pick
Under 48.5(-115)

This total feels a bit low considering Texas A&M has surpassed 30 points in all but 1 game this year. In fact, the Aggies have scored at least 40 points in every road game. They are 11th nationally in scoring, averaging 37.8 points per game, while sitting 19th in total offense at nearly 460 yards per game. However, when you dig deeper, you will see that Missouri excels at suppressing scoring and limiting big plays, so the total makes sense – especially when you add in the fact that Missouri will have a true freshman quarterback leading the offense in this one.

Texas A&M hasn’t seen many elite defenses this year. You could argue Auburn is the only above-average defense the Aggies have played to this point, and that was the only game they were held under 30 points – though they suffered from 2 missed field goals and a near-red-zone interception in the 2nd half of that game. Missouri offers a similar defensive intensity that Auburn does, as the Tigers held Alabama to 27 points and Vanderbilt to 17 points over the course of the last 3 games. 

The tempo of this game may be slower than expected. Texas A&M currently sits 108th in seconds per play, and the Aggies have started to play more deliberately over their last 3 games. Meanwhile, the Tigers are 72nd in seconds per play and will likely play a bit slower with a true freshman quarterback under center. All things considered, while I think Missouri will struggle to score enough to cover, the Tigers should have the ability to limit Texas A&M’s scoring just enough to keep this game under the total.

Texas A&M vs Missouri prediction: Under 48.5 (-115) at the time of publishing. Playable to 48.
