The Aggies have made key improvements in their offense and defense that should make them a threat in the SEC. Notre Dame brings their stout defense to this game and this will be a battle between two good teams.There are too many questions mark with the ND’s offensive line, and even with QB Leonard who didn’t look that great at the end of last season, while also dealing with early team injuries coming into this gae. The Aggies have NFL type talent and the better coach in Mike Elko who performed wonders at Duke last season, and who knows Leonard Riley best and how to approach his game. It’s tough to win at College Station and the Aggies defense will prove to be too much for this Notre Dame team that is good, but not tough enough to edge out the win.

Best bet: lay the points with Texas A&M.
