"I thought the [offensive line] pass-protected better this week," Sherman said. "I thought the quarterback had time to throw the football. And then from a running-game standpoint, I thought we blocked a lot better in displacing people."
The Aggies also have to contend with mounting injuries. During his news conference Monday, Sherman did not name a starting quarterback.
Sophomore Jerrod Johnson was banged up Saturday against Oklahoma State, and senior Stephen McGee is still recovering from an injury sustained early in the season.
"Jerrod took a couple shots in the [Oklahoma State] ballgame," Sherman said. "He made some big plays when he did take those shots, ironically, but health-wise he's no worse for the wear. He's a little sore like any quarterback would be but I thought physically he was OK."
Despite the injuries the Aggies have sustained, they will have to face Kansas State junior quarterback Josh Freeman, who leads the Wildcats with 1,275 passing yards and 12 touchdowns. Kansas State Head Coach Ron Prince said his team will be challenged this week against A&M.
"They are extraordinary," Prince said. "They have a terrific runner in [Mike Goodson]. He is as good as anybody I have seen in the past."
