Since A&M joined the SEC, they have never lost to South Carolina. This has been over five meetings. The Aggies won last years meeting 26-23.
South Carolina Gamecocks
Since winning against the Georgia Bulldogs, South Carolina has seen their entire season fall apart. They just lost to Appalachian State 20-15. They come into this game with just four wins. That means they must win against the Aggies and Clemson to become bowl eligible.
The offense has been anemic this year and are not scoring enough points. They average just 26 points per game, which ranks 87th in the country. They could not even score more than 15 points against App State, so how am I to believe that they will hang with a decent Aggies team?
The Gamecocks rush offense in the game against App State was downright horrible. They ran the ball 27 times for a total of 21 yards. That is an average of 0.8 yards per rush.
[dfads params=’groups=220&limit=1&return_javascript=1′]
The defense did not play all that bad against App State, as they allowed 202 yards. They actually only allowed 13 points because the Mountaineers had a pick six. They held App State to 97 yards rushing and just 105 yards passing.
Their overall rush defense ranks 40th in the country, allowing 136.7 yards per game. They also have a top 50 scoring defense, allowing 24.7 points per game.
Their points per game allowed has increased to 27.3 points allowed in seven conference games. They even gave up 41 points to Tennessee, so Gamecocks are likely going to have some struggles.
Texas A&M Aggies
The Aggies are coming off a bye and should be fully focused for this game. They blasted UTSA in their last game 45-14 to become bowl eligible. This is also their final home game of the season, so they will want to go out with a win on senior day.
The offense has been pretty decent this season, as they are averaging 34.4 points per game. The only problem is their points per game has decreased to 30.4 points per game in their SEC games. They are by far a better passing team than rushing team, averaging 263.6 yards per game. They rank 39th in this category.
The Aggies defense is allowing 21.9 points per game. This number is misleading because they have played three cupcakes named Texas State, Lamar and UTSA. Take out these opponents and they are actually allowing 28.8 points per game.
They are decent at stopping the pass, but they also have been torched through the air as well. Getting pressure on the Gamecocks quarterback will likely be the difference in this game. If they can force a turnover or two, the Aggies will have a relatively easy time winning this game.

With it being senior day, I think the Aggies will come to play and will get a win to ensure they have a winning season.

Both defenses have had plenty of struggles during their conference schedules and therefore I like there to be a lot of points in this game. I will take the over as my pick and will expect a higher scoring game.
