College football isn't as important to me this weekend as it was last Saturday. Events have a way of changing my outlook on life and forcing me to rearrange my priorities. Last week, I was depressed because Texas A&M collapsed in every phase of the game and was manhandled by a team I thought they might beat by at least two TDs. I've been watching Sumlin's teams start strong and finish weak for too long, and I'm sick of it.
Today, the Aggies have a chance to get the train back on the tracks against Ole Miss. This is a game I penciled in as an A&M loss in August, but the Rebels are 4-5 and have lost their hotshot quarterback to injury. As luck would have it, Trevor Knight is also injured, making the QB issue a wash. I don't understand why, but A&M is a 20 point favorite. College Football News thinks they'll win without covering the spread (37-26). I'll believe it when it happens. UPDATE: Texas A&M is no longer competitive in the SEC after back-to-back losses against MSU last week and Ole Miss tonight. Final score 29-28, and the Aggies had a 21-6 lead at one point. Some changes are overdue.
The other SEC games and CFN score predictions:
