As we head into the Aggie game against Vanderbilt, we”re going to keep it simple. The Ags are coming off a very disappointing 45-41 loss to Auburn, which included an uncalled horse-collar on Johnny that many believe would have changed the outcome. The Commodores beat Georgia and should be coming to Kyle Field high off their win. Despite playing their worst game this season, the Aggies still have one of the best offensive lines in CFB. They will have to be close to perfect this Saturday under two potential scenarios.

The first is that Johnny plays despite his shoulder injury. We all know that JFF is dying to play. He was incredibly tough, and in obvious pain, when he returned to the game last week, so even if he’s hurting, we know he’ll be out there if he gets the okay. If  he plays, his O line will have to give him the protection he deserves on every play; they’ll have to leave it all out there the way he does. If the medics feel that playing could cause further damage to his shoulder, however, then he’ll be sidelined. If Johnny has to sit and Joeckel plays, the line will have to adjust to his style of play and take the pressure off him. They will have to win the line of scrimmage on virtually every play in either case. Either way, expect to see a whole lot of Trey Williams.

Defensively, there’s not much more to say. By now we know that our defense is struggling mightily with too much inexperience out there. We’ve seen spurts of excellent D, but it has only come in spurts and there’s nothing to indicate that this situation will improve by the leaps and bounds we had hoped for. So, we just have to score more points than Vandy scores. We predict that the Aggies will do just that and get back in the Win column. What do you think?
