Texas A&M goes to Columbia on Saturday as a 3-2 team that just looked like a different offense against Arkansas. Meanwhile, No. 14 Missouri is 4-1 after manhandling Florida.
Eli Drinkwitz’s Tigers are 1-1 in the SEC. Saturday’s 45-17 College Football Odds win over Florida was the cleanest result of the season. This includes 38-21 at Kansas, 27-17 over Troy, and 54-14 over Arkansas-Pine Bluff. The loss was 31-24 at Mississippi State. Correlate that Austin Simmons has thrown for 1,287 yards and 13 touchdowns without an interception. That is the fewest picks in the country among qualifying passers.
Overall, Jamal Roberts has 606 rushing yards and six scores. Cayden Lee has 522 receiving yards. The defense is allowing about 20 points and 89 rushing yards a game. And it has been getting home late, with 11 second-half sacks. Missouri is scoring about 38.
In comparison, Mike Elko’s Aggies are 1-2 in the league. Saturday’s 34-7 win over Arkansas was a response to a bad September. This included a 31-21 home loss to Kentucky and a 6-35 loss at LSU. That was where Texas A&M managed little, and LSU put up more than 500 yards. Namely, Marcel Reed threw for 908 yards, six touchdowns, and four interceptions. And he added a rushing score against the Razorbacks.
The run game is shared. Rueben Owens II has 291 yards. At the same time, freshmen Carsyn Baker and KJ Edwards scored three times in the Arkansas win. The defense held Arkansas to 214 yards and seven points, which is the version Elko needs on the road. Specifically, the Kentucky and LSU versions are why the Aggies are underdogs.

Texas A&M Aggies at Missouri Tigers Matchup Analysis
The College Football Betting matchup is whether Austin Simmons ever has to throw a contested ball. And whether Marcel Reed can survive a front that gets home after halftime. That is a different question from who won last Saturday.
Overall, Simmons has 1,287 yards and 13 touchdowns with no interceptions, the cleanest qualifying passer in the country. Also, Missouri is second nationally in second-half sacks, with 11 total and Darius Hopkins already at six. Those two facts usually do not live on the same team.
They do here because the Tigers have run Jamal Roberts for 606 yards and six scores. And then rush the passer once the opponent is behind. Consider that Texas A&M’s run defense is allowing 121 yards a game. And LSU just put 194 on the ground in a 35-6 win. Reed is the opposite quarterback. He has four interceptions against six touchdown passes. In turn, the LSU game was the one where the pocket and the scoreboard both went.
The 34-7 win over Arkansas came against a team that cannot run and was playing its fifth game on the road in a night window. However, Missouri is not that.

To conclude, Sharps say to take the Tigers minus the points and the over. A 3-point home favorite with the cleaner quarterback and the better back is the side.
The total is the same game. Missouri’s last four against FBS opponents finished 62, 55, 44, and 59. The under was Troy. Meanwhile, Texas A&M’s conference losses finished 52 and 41. And the Arkansas win finished 41 only because the Razorbacks never scored after the first quarter.
