3. It’s time to start taking Kyle Allen and Texas A&M seriously
The Aggies entered the 2015 season outside the top 25, but blowout wins are becoming the order of the day for this program.
Texas A&M first put its flag on the national map this year by taking down Arizona State, which was No. 15 in the nation entering the season. Things have seemed to come easy since that time, with a big win against Ball State last weekend and another huge blowout over Nevada on Saturday.
Leading the charge is sophomore quarterback Kyle Allen, who has been sharp in each of the three wins thus far. After piling up six total touchdowns in the first two games, Allen scored five times on Saturday, throwing four touchdowns and running in a quarterback sneak to open the game in the first quarter.
Obviously, the meat-and-potatoes portion of the schedule is yet to come, so it’s too early to crown this team. With contests against SEC foes Arkansas, Alabama, Ole Miss, Auburn and LSU still looming, we still don’t quite know what to make of the Aggies’ chances for a big-time bowl game.
That said, after three convincing wins, it’s time to start taking Allen and the Aggies for real.
