2011 Texas A&M Strengths:
Amulti-talented, diverse offense that averaged 441.9 yards per game in 2010 should be even better in 2011. The Aggles are loaded with skill-position playmakers, and the offensive line will continue to improve throughout the season. The defensive line and secondary should help the defense continue its rise to respectability.

2011 Texas A&M Weaknesses:
The Aggies have some good options to fill the holes of departed defensive leaders Michael Hodges and Von Miller. But the linebacker position remains an area of concern. especially in terms of overall depth. A&M is also extremely concerned about the punting game. as the hope is a true freshman will take over that role.

2011 Texas A&M Offense:

When first-team All-Big 12 receiver Jeff Fuller decided to return for his senior season, it gave A&M nine returning starters on an offense that averaged 441.9 yards per game. The Aggies were very good offensively last year. They expect to be much improved. After his stellar performance down the stretch, strong-armed Ryan Tannehill enters 2011 as a legitimate candidate to become the first A&M quarterback to earn first-team all-conference honors since 1991. While the media focused on Tannehill’s role in A&M’s six-game winning streak to conclude the regular season, equally important was Cyrus Gray’s emergence in the second half of the season. The powerful and explosive Gray rushed for at least 100 yards in each of the final seven games. With Fuller back, A&M features an exceptional group of receivers. Fuller, a physically imposing, game-altering force, became the first Aggie to surpass 1,000 receiving yards in a season in 2010. Ryan Swope is also a sure-handed, big-play receiver who matched Fuller last season with 72 receptions. One of the main reasons for A&M’s second-half surge was the development of highly talented true freshman offensive tackles Jake Matthews and Luke Joeckel, who flashed All-America potential as the season progressed. Talented guard Patrick Lewis has moved to center, where he’ll be flanked by Brian Thomas and Shep Klinke on a potentially dominant front.

2011 Texas A&M Defense:

Replacing pass-rushing phenom Von Miller may be next to impossible, but the Aggies do return Damontre Moore, who did a nice impersonation of Miller at the Joker position, as well as Caleb Russell, who may have moved ahead of Moore in the spring. The defensive front should be solid, as senior ends Tony Jerod-Eddie and Jonathan Mathis and senior tackle Eddie Brown return to anchor a line that helped A&M tie for fourth in the Big 12 with 30 sacks. Garrick Williams (112 tackles) should have a big senior season. Sean Porter is also a proven, versatile performer. But the Aggies really need a few unproven linebackers to emerge Jonathan Stewart, Charlie Thomas, Kyle Mangan and Donnie Baggs are the candidates in order for the defense to continue to evolve. Everyone on last year’s secondary two-deep returns, including senior cornerback Coryell Judie, who may prove to be the best man-to-man coverage corner at A&M since Sammy Davis departed A&M in ’02. Fellow senior cornerback Terrence Frederick also possesses lock-down skills, while senior free safety Trent Hunter is the vocal leader of the group.

2011 Texas A&M Special Teams:

Aside from punting questions (A&M finished 2010 last in net punting in the Big 12), special teams are in excellent shape. Placekicker Randy Bullock has hit 76.2 of his field goal attempts, and he’s converted a school-record 120 consecutive extra point attempts. Judie is a game-changer, as he returned two kickoffs for touchdowns, and McNeal also ranked among the top two punt returners last season in the Big 12.

2011 Texas A&M Predictions:

After ranking 114th nationally in total defense in 2008 and 105th in ’09, A&M took a major step toward respectability in 2010, ranking 55th. If the Aggies can continue to improve defensively and maintain their high-powered offense, this is a team that could win the school’s first outright league title since 1998.
