They have also forcing a whopping 24 turnovers per game off their opponents and I don’t think Louisiana–Monroe got what it takes to keep this one close, as this will be their first test on the road this season, while Texas A&M will be playing its third straight game at home to start the season. Take Texas A&M and lay the points at home in this one.
