0:00.0	A Super Talked Talk, Mississippi Media Production.
0:05.0	Let's welcome in Travis Brown, Senior, Texas A&M Sports Rider for KBX out there in Brian College Station and Travis and against Missouri did for Texas A&M. Coming into that game I thought, okay they're
0:22.9	okay they're pretty good, you know, they may be a little bit better than they were a
0:26.6	season ago. Now I look at them and say well if they handle their business they
0:29.8	could be in the college football playoff they could they could challenge for the conference
0:32.8	championship I know the short answer is the quarterback was healthy
0:36.5	what's the long answer to why A&M was so much more impressive in that game?
0:40.6	Yeah it was definitely the most complete game that they've put together since
0:44.2	probably the 2020 season but even then I think the offense is a little bit has a

1:28.9	So I think a lot of it does start from the offensive line and then defensively it's the defensive line.
1:36.0	They've put a lot of pressure on opposing quarterbacks, have a lot of really talented guys back there and it's it's been a
1:46.4	you know the cliche is everything starts in the trenches and that's I think exactly
1:50.0	where the success is started for a and a season and that's going to be a problem this weekend because Mississippi State's weaknesses lie in the trenches.
1:57.8	You know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you, Connor Wiggman, I thought, you know, playing the first game, he was not good.
