That adds even more urgency to an already important SEC matchup.

Texas A&M needs to regain control of the line of scrimmage and keep LSU’s offense standing on the sideline. Long possessions would also help neutralize the Tiger Stadium crowd.

LSU needs explosive plays. The Aggies have enough defensive talent to make long scoring drives difficult, so the Tigers will look for opportunities downfield.

Expect a relatively cautious opening followed by a much more aggressive second half. This should remain within one possession deep into the fourth quarter.

Home field provides LSU with the small edge.

Prediction: LSU 30, Texas A&M 24
