How will our running game look against the Aggies?

Do we have enough physical prowess and power up front to punch out significant yardage and help our QB's do their thing?

Yes , we do .
I believe they will see a ton of the run game early in the half . Their is no doubt that keeping the chains moving and running their batteries down is in the gameplan . Jimbo knows the deal , our offense won't need to do all that much to win the game , because our defense is coming to Kyle Field with them .

Hope so because if they stop our run game and

and then clamp down on downfield passing it is going to be a struggle. Would love to see our line open holes they could not open against Bama in the Sugar. 200+ rushing would be good to see.

I agree, we did not run very well up the middle considering it was an FCS

opponent. Hopefully we run block better against aTm. If they stack the box and we can't run, I think we see more TL than KB because of downfield passing threat

Worrisome early, 250+ yrds by the end of the game

1st quater will be rough. I don't know that our OL will get it done early. But passing game, even in the rain, plus fresh legs with our RB platoon, and I think we have 3 rushing tds and 250yrds by the end of the game.
I expect we'll try several qb keepers with KB that result in minimal yardage. Whether its KB or TL, we have to ise the pass to open running lanes.

Heavy run game against Jimbo.

Lots of QB rush yards from KB is my prediction. (Some things never change.)
Clemson D dominates this game though, as they will most games this season.

I think for the qbs to do their thing they are going to have to be able to pass.
If KB starts they will sell out to stop the run and force him to throw. It won’t matter how well we can block if they put 8 in the box. We will have to be able to throw in order to spread them out and get them off the line. If Kelly can’t do that then he will struggle
