Match Details
- Date: 2025-11-15
- Time: 5:00 PM UTC
- Location: Kyle Field, Texas A&M
Game Overview
The undefeated Texas A&M Aggies (9-0, 6-0 SEC) host the struggling South Carolina Gamecocks (3-6, 1-6 SEC) in an SEC matchup. Texas A&M enters as a dominant favorite with a powerful offense and a top-tier defensive front, while South Carolina has lost their last four games and shows major vulnerabilities on both lines.
Key Factors to Consider
- Texas A&M has a strong running game (243 yards vs. Missouri) and a sack-heavy defense (34 sacks this season). Quarterback Marcel Reed is efficient with 21 passing TDs, and running back Rueben Owens II is productive on the ground. South Carolina ranks near the bottom defensively, particularly in quarterback protection and havoc allowed (131st nationally).
- Texas A&M dominates recent meetings, with a superior talent roster and strategic advantages. South Carolina struggles historically against top SEC opponents, especially at Kyle Field.
- No major injuries reported impacting Texas A&Mβs starting quarterback or key defenders. South Carolinaβs injury report indicates weakened offensive line depth and key defensive starters missing, further exposing their vulnerabilities.
- Home crowd advantage at Kyle Field strengthens Texas A&Mβs motivation. Weather conditions expected to be clear, favoring a high-tempo offensive game.
- Texas A&M seeks to maintain an undefeated season and secure a top College Football Playoff seed. South Carolina is motivated to end a four-game losing streak but realistically faces a heavy uphill battle.
