Saturday Blitz Vegas SEC Prediction: Texas A&M Wins 24-23
This game is going to be a lot closer than you might think. Texas A&M certainly proved last week that it is still a very good team, but whether it’s Kyle Allen or Kenny Hill in the game, they have still shown an inability to handle pressure and a heavy pass rush.
That’s exactly what the Missouri Tigers specialize in.
We still believe in the Aggies to pull out the victory with Allen starting at quarterback based on what they showed last week against Auburn. The offense is too explosive to be rendered completely useless, and Missouri doesn’t have the secondary that the likes of Alabama, Ole Miss, and Mississippi State have. At the same time, they still have no offense.
Even a defense like Texas A&M’s can avoid being torched by the Tigers, and they will do just enough, while the offense scores just enough, for the Aggies to pull out the victory.
But the pass rush led by Shane Ray for Missouri will still keep this close. So expect a thrilling victory that keeps Texas A&M in the Top 25.
