Greg McElroy makes predictions every week on his Always College Football podcast, and this week it is no different. There are some big games this weekend, with 1 of the biggest being a top-15 showdown between LSU and Texas A&M.
This wasn’t a game early in the season that looked like it would be a big-time matchup, as both of these teams lost their season opener. Texas A&M lost at home to Notre Dame, while LSU lost a neutral-field matchup against USC.
This is a now huge game, as the winner will be in the driver’s seat in the SEC and in a really good spot to make the College Football Playoff.
The game is in College Station, but McElroy is going with the road team in this game.
“I really like A&M, and I really like LSU. I can see both sides,” McElroy said. “I am taking the Tigers. I think they go to College Station. Garrett Nussmeier and the passing attack continues to be outstanding. I think he will be smart with the football, and at this point, I just don’t know what I am going to get with the A&M passing attack, and that will allow LSU to really go all out against the run.”
Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET and the game will be on ABC.
