Kickoff time, network, streaming revealed for Texas at Texas A&M on Nov. 30

We finally know the kickoff time and network for the high-stakes rivalry renewal of Texas Longhorns vs. Texas A&M Aggies on Nov. 30. 

We finally know when the Cotton Holdings Lone Star Showdown. That’s the official sponsored name of the Texas vs. Texas A&M game.

The Saturday after Thanksgiving, the Longhorns travel to Kyle Field to face the arch-rival Aggies. The game will kickoff at 6:30 PM CT (7:30 PM ET) on Nov. 30 and be broadcast on ABC. The game will also stream on ESPN+

The series returns after a 13-year hiatus. Angry with Texas’ influence over the Big 12 and the launch of the Longhorn Network, the Aggies left the Big 12 for the SEC in 2011. Texas won the final meeting 27-25 on a last second field goal.

The stakes and passion will be at an all-tine high when the teams meet again. The game could be for a berth into the SEC Championship game for the winner.

It’s a good bet that with the importance of the game, ESPN’s top announcing crew will be on hand to call the matchup. Expect Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit in the booth with at least Holly Rowe on the sidelines for the primetime ABC clash. ESPN GameDay might also set up shop in College Station that morning.

The “Cotton Holdings Lone Star Showdown” will actually be a series that will include 19 different sports. For sports in which there is no head-to-head competition, points will be awarded based on which team finishes higher in the respective NCAA Championships’ final standings. Both schools are excited about bringing back the rivalry.

“Rekindling our historic rivalry with Texas A&M and bringing that back for not only our fans but fans of college sports across our great state, the country, and the world, is so special. And we’re so grateful our friends at Cotton Holdings are on board to help amplify that with the Lone Star Showdown rivalry series. I know our fans are going to follow the standings closely,” said Texas athletic director Chris Del Conte.
