 The Texas Longhorns and the Texas A&M Aggies will both be gunning for a victory on Thanksgiving Day when they meet at Kyle Field on Thursday at 8:00pm EST in a game that can be seen on ESPN2. College football betting odds makers have the Longhorns listed as 22.5-point favorites against the Aggies for Thursday's Thanksgiving Day match-up. Colt McCoy threw four touchdown passes as Texas ran over Kansas 51-20 in week 12. Texas covered the 27-point spread as a favorite in college football odds and the 71 points sailed OVER the posted total of 57 at online sportsbooks. McCoy completed 32-of-41 for 396 yards for Texas while James Kirkendoll had two catches in the win. McCoy also set an NCAA record with his 43rd career win as a starter against Kansas and continues to push towards winning this year's Heisman. "I always love winning," McCoy said. "I'm just so thankful. It's really special." The Longhorns face the Aggies in Thanksgiving Day college football odds and play in the the Big 12 championship against the Nebraska Cornhuskers on December 5th. If Texans can win both games, then they will play in the BCS championship. Texas A&M rocked Baylor 38-3 at Kyle Field in week 12 college football odds to become bowl eligible this year. Texas A&M covered as a 5.5-point home favorite while the final score played UNDER the 61-point total at online sportsbooks. Quarterback Jerrod Johnson threw 19-25 for 153-yards with touchdowns in the win while freshman running back Christine Michael rushed in 11 carries for 116-yards and two touchdowns including a 97-yard score. Heading into this Thanksgiving Day matchup, the Aggies are 6-5 straight up, 5-5-1 against the spread in college football betting odds and 3-7 when playing in November. Gordon's College Football Picks: This is going to be the biggest upset of the college football betting season! Just kidding but could you imagine? There is no way the Aggies will be able to beat Texas but the Longhorns do have a few more games they need to win and will probably not be playing at full strength. My college football pick for this week 13 match-up on will be to take Texas A&M at home plus the points against the Longhorns. Vegas odds at the MGM Mirage sportsbook have the Texas Longhorns 22.5-point favorites in college football betting odds for Thanksgiving Day football against the Texas A&M Aggies. |
