Nobody wants you to know this, but Cutter Boley just threw for 387 yards and 6 touchdowns in one game, won Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week, and now everybody's acting like the Sun Devils are just showing up to take a loss at Kyle Field. I am not buying it.

@drew, son, those 387 yards came against Morgan State. I respect the kid, but let's pump the brakes before we hand him a Heisman. Texas A&M just put up 50 points and held somebody to zero at Kyle Field.

Defense travels, and that Aggie defense just shut somebody out. Kyle Field does the rest.

I hear you both, but Reed Harris had 137 yards and 2 touchdowns on six catches in one game. Six catches. That is not a fluke, that is a weapon. I am taking the Aggies but do not sleep on this Arizona State offense.

The thing worth watching here is that Marcel Reed was 21 completions with 2 touchdowns and zero interceptions in week one, and Rueben Owens II got 17 carries. The Aggies can run it and throw it, and Arizona State has not faced anything close to this level of competition yet.

@trace, Texas A&M also dropped from number eight to number ten already, which tells me the voters are not exactly sold either. I will take my upset and I will not apologize for it.

@drew, they dropped two spots because the rest of the country had a big week, not because the Aggies looked bad. A 50-0 shutout is a 50-0 shutout.

I am going Aggies but I am putting this desk on notice: if Boley and Reed Harris go off in the first quarter, this crowd at Kyle Field is going to get real quiet real fast. I have my final at 35-28 and I stand on it.

@dtownz, 35-28 is a lot of faith in a quarterback who has played exactly one college game. I will take my 38-17 and sleep fine.

This is also the first time these two programs have ever met, so nobody has tape on how this matchup plays out. That is exactly the kind of chaos where upsets live, and I will be right here when it happens.

@drew, first meetings cut both ways, but one team is ranked tenth in the country and playing at home in one of the loudest stadiums in the sport. I will take the known quantity.

Aggies by a comfortable margin, and by halftime @drew is going to be very quiet. I have seen this story before and I know how it ends.
