The Iceman's Free Pick
(NCAAF) Texas A&M vs. Alabama, 10/22/2016 11:30 AM, Score: 14 - 33
Point Spread: 18.50 | -110.00 Texas A&M (Away)
Result: Loss
This is a Free play on Texas A&M.

The defending champions are rolling, coming off back-to-back blowout wins on the road versus Arkansas and Tennessee. With their "air of invincibility" firmly intact, I think they are due to suffer a let down here against the Aggies. Texas A&M is coming off a bye week, allowing them to put everything they've got into preparing for this game.

Alabama is asked to cover an enormous spread here at home, even greater than the 18-point margin they defeat the Aggies by last year. Texas A&M is a far better team since the addition of Trevor Knight at quarterback, and the former Oklahoma Sooner has accounted for 12 touchdowns in four games in conference play.

The best game of Trevor Knight's career came in the 2014 Sugar Bowl, throwing for 348 yards and four touchdowns in a 45-31 win over Alabama. He's got a talented group of wide receivers here at A&M, and one of the best defenses in the country behind him. Don't be surprised if history repeats itself here in Tuscaloosa.

Take Aggies.
