We're now 1-0 on the 'three game season'. But our next game is a much, much tougher matchup for us.

The rushing attack will hopefully keep AM sidelined some, but that offense going against our secondary scares me more than a power running game in Death Valley.

Enjoy the love from the press this week though. Mullen and the team deserve it.

It is a tougher matchup, but we've got 2 weeks to get ready.

I love that aTm has to deal with arkansas' physicality this week. I think aTm's defense is gonna be beat up before we beat up on em some more.

We've gone over 500 yards in total offense in all 4 of our games so I'm sure aTm's defense will be tested too

States defense is built to stop LSU and Bama so it's a big challenge against Texas A&M and AU. I think the pressure will also be on the offense to produce as well and we could see some shoot outs these next two games. The off week could not have come at a better time.

Reality is A&M was always going to be the toughest game of the year for us, but we get them at the perfect time. If we'd had UK or Ark next we could have lost focus really easily and laid an egg. Won't happen against a top 5 team that's shredded us the last two years.

Plus, as has been said them getting Arkansas the previous week is a plus.

I like our chances the best against AU. A&M will be a tough match up. We will have to out score them in another high scoring affair. Not impossible though.

I liked the "Great Win" part of your post. I'll read the "...but here's the reality" part next week!
