For two reasons. One... A&M just lost their top back for the year.

Even though I hate to see top DI players who make an impact on their teams go down, this one will be big for us. Gray is amazing also, but two fresh running freaks now down to one who will get more touches and have to play more then usual will go in our advantage.
Other reason is the last quote in the article below:
“Even though we just got these two losses by two great teams, we still control our own destiny. Nobody can change that. Kansas State hasn’t won 10 games in a long time. We can. We just have to stay together and keep fighting.†– David Garrett"

Talking about controlling our own destiny to 10 wins. Wow! Snyder doing his magic on the players. Got to love that spirit.

I hope the RB situation helps us. On the other hand it may force them to throw more, and the past 2 weeks have not been good on our secondary.

Its a very legitmate concern. Believe it or not, Tannehill has similar stats to Jones and Weeden. QB rating, int's, td's, sacks.... Even though the QB rating is like a tad lower, the guy runs more, and when out of the pocket, runs a crap load better then Jones and Weeden.
The main difference that will hopefully be the deal breaker is.... we matchup against Fuller and Swope WAYY better. We have also taken advantage of 6 turnovers in the last 2 games... no reason it would be any different if they decide to pass a lot.

Forcast for Saturday is 64 and Sunny. Looks like a perfect day for Football!

RB Situation may not be as good as we hoped.
Now, part of the game for Texas A&M is relying on last season's hero, who Michael had surpassed as the Aggies' lead dog in the backfield. Cyrus Gray topped 100 yards in nine consecutive games from the end of last year to the beginning of this season. Texas A&M went 8-1 in those games and Gray reached the end zone 14 times in that stretch.
Looks like this guy is just as good.

Lets hope the double snaps ='s a very tired Gray.

You should also feel better...we forgot to bring the halftime material.

HAHA OMG. I'm expecting a big 3rd Qtr now! How do you forget the halftime speech?!?!

And the death nail from Ubs
No. 14 Kansas State 27, Texas A&M 24: Tough, tough pick here. But once again, the ranked Wildcats are the underdogs at home against a team with superior talent. Give me the team with more consistency and superior discipline. This will be frustrating for the Aggies.

Gray has over 200 yds on us. Hahaha, how wrong I was about him getting tired. One could argue that two awesome backs sharing time keeps two backs fresh. One could also argue that using two backs doesn't allow for either to get in a groove. Gray got in one and owned us. Good thing we actually handled the pass better.
