Both teams are coming at 4-1 on the season, with Alabama taking a 34-24 loss to Texas on Sept 9 and Texas A&M a 48-33 loss at Miami-Florida on the same day.

The Crimson Tide may not be the absolute powerhouse we are used to, but it's still a very talented team, and outside of the loss to Texas, the Alabama defense is giving up only nine points per game.

The Tide are 12-3 all-time against Texas A&M, and with Texas A&M's starting QB Conner Weigman sidelined for the rest of the year with a foot injury, I don't see the Aggies stealing this one either.

2* free pick on Alabama.
