Texas A&M vs South Carolina Prediction
The South Carolina Gamecocks are strong defensively, have a strong running game, and a great home crowd. You can talk yourself in the points with the Gamecocks. The problem is we’ve seen South Carolina in the juicy home underdog role a couple of times, and it resulted in frustrating losses to LSU and Ole Miss. Texas A&M is on a roll right now, and I have more confidence in its offense. I’ll roll with the Aggies and the soft line.
