Ranking Texas A&M football’s toughest 2023 road games

Texas A&M has four road matchups this season, with one added neutral site game. Here’s how we are ranking the road schedule for the Aggies in 2023.

Texas A&M is set on putting together a rebound season in 2023, indicative of the elite talent they boast on the roster. To achieve that goal means defending home turf while simultaneously taking care of business on the road.

Much conversation has been made about the Aggies’ 5-7 record (2-6 SEC) in 2022, but one key factor that can easily be overlooked is how this team fared away from Kyle Field. In their four road matchups last season, the Maroon and White went 0-4 despite their defense holding their own in these contests. They say numbers never lie, and those statistics paint a portrait of how the Aggies’ offense struggled on the road.

Through those four road matchups, Texas A&M recorded a lower completion percentage (52.7), averaged fewer rushing yards per game (107.3), and averaged fewer total yards of offense per game (331.0) compared to their seven home matchups, in which the Aggies finished 4-3.

While it’s always tougher to play in a hostile environment, elite college football programs find ways to stay disciplined, avoid costly penalties, and ultimately win the matchups they need to, even when on the road.

Texas A&M has four road matchups this year, with one neutral site game on the docket. We include the latter matchup on the list for these rankings, given that it will take place away from Kyle Field. Here’s how we rank the road schedule for Texas A&M from easiest to most challenging.
