If you are into offensive football, you will want to tune into Saturday afternoon’s Big 12 game between No. 20 Baylor and No. 21 Texas A&M in College Station. The Aggies opened as 9.5-point favorites with the total at a whopping 75.5 on Bodog’s NCAA football odds.

Both these teams are in the Top 20 in the nation and both defenses really can’t stop anyone. Baylor (4-1, 1-1 Big 12) enters off a 49-26 win over Iowa State – the Bears have allowed at least 26 points to the four FBS teams they have faced thus far. Baylor put up 603 yards on the Cyclones, led by Heisman candidate QB Robert Griffin III, who rushed for 107 yards and a score and threw for 212 and another TD. He leads the nation in completing 80.3 percent of his passes. The Bears probably should be unbeaten but blew a nine-point fourth-quarter lead in a loss to Kansas State in the previous game.

The Aggies (3-2, 1-1), in their final season in the Big 12, also could well be unbeaten, having blown huge leads in close losses to ranked teams Oklahoma State and Arkansas. A&M bounced back from those losses with a 45-40 shootout win over Texas Tech last week. QB Ryan Tannehill passed for 189 yards and a touchdown and added two rushing TDs. But A&M still might have lost as it allowed TTU to gain 523 yards. Two blocked Red Raider field goals, including one returned for a score, were the difference for A&M.

This likely will be the final meeting of these teams for a long while with A&M off to the SEC next year. This is only the seventh time in 108 meetings both are ranked when facing off. A&M won last year 42-30 and is 13-2 vs. Baylor as members of the Big 12.
