How much weight do you give the A&M win?

[bulldognation]

I've been trying to figure out just how legit the improvement we witnessed in last weeks game truly is. Texas A&M wasn't expected to make the #4 spot in the CFP. I sure didn't have them there over Washington. Pressure there.
Then T. Knight goes down and sits the rest of the game. It's obvious he's a gamer. If he hadn't been hurt and had stayed in, I'm sure A&M would have rallied earlier and kept the momentum going.
I know we left points on the field with the end zone interceptions though, so really not sure what to think about all this optimism over us managing to take two of the next three.

We dominated the LOS on both sides, that's the takeaway.

Is A&M about to finish the year with their typical collapse? Who knows.

But we beat them up front all day.

I disagree about Knight to a degree. I think they were more successful passing the ball and Knight couldn't throw. He had receivers running wide open early. Wide open. Backup threw for 225 yards in one half of football.

We are still really gonna struggle against Arkansas because their QB is legit. Egg bowl became winnable with Kelly going down

Huge. If for nothing more than we see what we have in the young talent.

We looked bad against way worse teams. I think the improvement is legit.

Mullen's agent perceived it as a huge win. And that's all that matters.

Yuge. Personally, it took a lot of the sting off the UK and USA losses. I also feel like it gave me a little "look into our future".

We curb stomped a team trying to stay in the playoffs.

About a henway.

I'll let you know after the A&M/Ole Miss game. And regarding Knight, man, we were beating that *** even before he went down. How many opportunities did we throw away again? Would we have won had he stayed in? Maybe not, but I think that cancels out some of our dumbass coaching decisions and playcalling.

 

[FlotownDawg]

We had three empty red zone trips, gave up a punt return TD and still won

We pretty much dominated the game and were already up by two touchdowns when Knight got hurt. We really should have won that game by 14-21 points even with a healthy Knight if we didn't throw away so many red zone chances. Hubenek didn't play badly, had 200+ yards and his one interception was on a desperation pass in the final seconds.
