Texas A&M is undefeated on the season at 3-0 but they get a real test on Thursday as they face the Miami Hurricanes. The 16th-ranked Aggies gave up 403 yards in a 38-7 victory over Montana State in their opener and 399 yards in a double overtime win over Fresno State. They also gave up 348 yards last week to Louisiana Monroe. The good news for the Aggies is that their offense has been excellent including last week when they had 547 yards of total offense. The Aggies are tied for the 11th-most points scored in the nation. "It doesn't matter to me how many yards I throw for or how many yards we rush for," said quarterback Stephen McGee, "Our goal is to be where we are today - 3-0. I'm happy for our guys that we just continue to push on." The Aggies started last year 4-0 before finishing 9-4. They have not had two straight 4-0 starts to a season since 1956-57 under coach Bear Bryant. SBG Global reports that early betting has the public taking the favored Miami,Florida at home.

"Now, more than ever, we're beginning offensively to get a flow going," McGee said. "That's very important. The coaches talk about getting better each week and we were able to do that." The Aggies will need to play better on defense this week as they face a much more difficult opponent in Miami.
The Hurricanes had 428 yards in a 23-9 win over Florida International last Saturday. Kyle Wright was 10-of-19 for 224 yards and a touchdown, Darnell Jenkins had 108 yards receiving and Javarris James ran for 92 yards. Miami is second in the ACC with 172 rushing yards per game. "We've got athletes on this team," coach Randy Shannon said. "Everybody says, 'Well, you don't have the receivers to make plays.' Now it's an opportunity for us to sit down and use our strengths. ... Our strength right now is the offensive line and the running game."
