Texas A&M (7-2, 5-1 SEC) will host New Mexico State (2-7) on Saturday night before taking on Auburn and Texas to finish out the 2024 regular season. On paper, the home Aggies are big favorites against the road Aggies, but these are only numbers.
While this isn’t A&M’s final home game of the year, head coach Mike Elko and his staff will honor 26 veteran during Senior Night, which will include junior defensive end Nic Scourton, who will more than likely enter the NFL draft after one season with the program.
This is also a big weekend on the recruiting trail, as On3’s Steve Wiltfong has confirmed that 2025 5-star safety Trey McNutt, who committed to Oregon in early August, is back in College Station this weekend and will attend the game on Saturday night.
This is huge for the Elko coaching staff, who have been trying to get the Ohio native back to campus since his commitment to the Ducks. McNutt joins fellow 2025 5-star offensive tackle and Missouri commit Lamont Rogers, who is predicted to flip from the Aggies before National Signing Day on Wednesday, Dec. 4.
According to 247Sports, McNutt is currently positioned as the 61st-ranked porspect in the 2025 cycle, the 4th-ranked safety, and the 4th-ranked prospect in Ohio.
No. 15 Texas A&M will host New Mexico State on Saturday, Nov. 16. The game will air on SEC Network at 6:45 p.m. CT.
Can confirm @SWiltfong_ report that 2025 Shaker Heights (OH) five-star safety and Oregon commit Trey McNutt is in College Station today.https://t.co/FjfQDRKsGR
