Texas A&M football faces off against Oklahoma State on Friday in the Texas Bowl. What are the keys to victory for the Aggies against the Cowboys?

The Aggies are set to take on Oklahoma State on Friday.

Now, set to face off against one of the best running backs in college football, they have to prepare for a game that will not be easy. This is a fight against two teams that are ready to fight.

What are the keys to victory in this one for the boys in Maroon and White? Do they have the ability to outplay Oklahoma State and come out with a victory?

3. Out-coach

This one seems obvious, but it’s true. Oklahoma State will, obviously, be without their top receiver in Tylan Wallace who tore his ACL at the end of October. However, they will not be without Spencer Sanders at quarterback — who had thumb surgery late in the season — and Chuba Hubbard who is one of the better running backs in the league, if not the best.

Things won’t be easy, but it comes down to coaching.

Texas A&M has the talent on their side, in my opinion. though they will need a couple of things to go right that we will discuss next. However, as I said, it comes down to coaching and Jimbo Fisher has to out-coach Mike Gundy if he wants to win this game. It comes from all aspects of the game and every member of the coaching staff.
