00:00The SEC game of the week is A&M against South Carolina, probably, I mean, I guess, I mean,

00:10this is really one that A&M has put themselves right back in the playoff picture.

00:13One loss, and really, you can't indict any team for one loss right now in college football

00:18based on the first few weeks of the season, Bill.

00:21A&M, two and a half point road favorites this week at South Carolina.

00:25Total is low, 43 and a half, boy, I mean, I know the Gamecocks are going to be ready

00:32for this game.

00:33I mean, this is the game of the season for them.

00:36A&M's not looking past, though, I would not think, against South Carolina, are they?

00:41No, and I typically obey your, you know, be careful with road favorites, especially in

00:46the SEC when the line's this short.

00:48We saw this earlier this season with LSU going to South Carolina when they were a touchdown

00:53favorite.

00:54I think Texas A&M's got to start Marcel Reed.

00:57They haven't made an official announcement, but he energizes the running game.

01:01Johnny Manziel endorsed that line of thinking, and you're right.

01:06This will be a Super Bowl of sorts for South Carolina.

01:09Shane Beamer, five and six against the spread as a home underdog with four straight-up victories.

01:15So yeah, you have to be careful going into Williams-Brice at night, ABC spotlight, all

01:20those things.

01:22All that said, I think Texas A&M will find a way to win this game, continue to push toward

01:27a ten-and-one season going into the finale against Texas.

01:30How fun would that be?

01:32And Mike Elko seriously deserves some Coach of the Year consideration, he does.
