Texas A&M may be near a touchdown favorite against Arkansas on Saturday at 11 a.m., but little about most meetings between the Aggies and Razorbacks had made sense in recent years.
The Aggies are without starting quarterback Connor Weigman, replaced by Max Johnson. Johnson has had mixed results against the Razorbacks, though he led Texas A&M to win in this same game last year.
Arkansas may have running back Rocket Sanders back for the first time since Week 1. Sanders was a preseason All-American, but a knee injury has kept him out of the lineup since that season-opening win over Western Carolina.
Texas A&M has won nine of the last 10 games in the meeting in the last 10 years. The old Southwest Conference rivalry was re-estbalished when the Aggies joined the SEC at about that time. Even with all those A&M wins, neither team has won by more than 11 points since 2016.
Here is how our team of editor E. Wayne and contributors Steve Andrews, Connor Goodson and Derek Oxford see Saturday shaking out.
