14th-ranked Texas A&M (6-1, 4-0 SEC) heads back to Kyle Field for a primetime Week 9 showdown against 8th-ranked LSU. The Aggies hope to return to playing A+ level football compared to the up-and-down showing during A&M’s 34-24 win over Mississippi State.
Both teams have reeled off six consecutive wins after losing their season openers. At the same time, LSU took care of business against a tough Arkansas team on the road 34-10 behind freshman running back Caden Durham’s 101 rushing yards and three touchdowns.
If the Aggies can get past the Tigers on Saturday night, another road test, which looks like the toughest game on the schedule against South Carolina, awaits for what is now a confirmed night game inside Williams-Brice Stadium.
Texas A&M will enter the matchup already 2-0 on the road in SEC play after not winning a conference road game since the 2021 season before defeating Florida earlier this year. However, South Carolina’s 16th-ranked defense is the real deal, already racking up 28 sacks in seven games.
Texas A&M will face South Carolina at 6:30 or 6:45 p.m. CT. The channel is still undetermined, but SEC Network, ESPN, or ABC will air the matchup.
