19. Texas at Texas A&M, Nov. 23
Texas owned the rivalry with six wins in a row, and then A&M dealt a crushing blow to the Longhorn faithful with a stunning 12-7 win to give Oklahoma the 2006 Big 12 South title. Now the Aggie fans want more, and they want the first home win over Texas since 1999. Each team will have had two weeks off to prepare with the hype certainly to be growing over the course of the season after what happened last year. A&M will make it two in a row for the first time since 1993 and 1994, the old Southwest Conference days, as the Aggie offensive line will pave the way for just enough of a running game, and the defense will do just enough to keep the Texas receiving corps under wraps, to save what'll likely be a disappointing season (look at the schedule).
Predicted score in July: Texas A&M 20 ... Texas 17
