They struggled with sloppy play (including three turnovers) and special-teams mistakes, one of which led to a Vanderbilt safety. Texas A&amp;M won only 17-12 over arguably the SEC\u2019s worst team.<\/p>\n<p>Since taking over in College Station, Jimbo Fisher has lost his first two matchups with Alabama by an average of 21.5 points (1-1 ATS). These are the games Fisher was hired to win. He was not hired on a big contract to go to the Gator Bowl and Texas Bowl. Now in his third season, Fisher is currently just 10-7 versus SEC opponents. He also is on a long list of former assistants to lose to Nick Saban, who is 19-0 against proteges.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, this line has increased from an opener of -13 at Circa Sports and may still have room to be bet up. Texas A&amp;M obviously was looking ahead to this one, so a far sharper effort should be expected.<\/p>\n<p>Very few programs can match Alabama\u2019s talent level, but the Aggies have had back-to-back national top-five recruiting classes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The plays:<\/strong> Texas A&amp;M +18 and Under 52.5.\n            <\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">News category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/10\/03\/alabama-vs-texas-am-aggies-will-cover-spread\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#Alabama vs. Texas A&amp;M: Aggies will cover spread&#8221; Last season, Alabama missed the College Football Playoff for the first time since its inception in 2014-15.
