Texas A&M Hosts Arizona State at Kyle Field

A&M’s ability to stop Arizona State’s high-powered offense will determine whether the Aggies keep national momentum.

Overview

  • The matchup is set for Saturday morning at Kyle Field, with Texas A&M coming off a 50-0 shutout that held Missouri State to 67 total yards.
  • Arizona State arrives after a 70-7 opening win led by transfer quarterback Cutter Boley, who threw for 387 yards and six touchdowns in his debut.
  • Preseason models and analysts favor the Aggies by double digits, with ESPN’s Bill Connelly projecting a comfortable A&M victory.
  • Key matchup questions center on A&M’s offensive line after early penalties and two sacks in Week 1 and on whether the Aggies can replicate their dominant defensive performance.
  • Arizona State will fly straight to London after the game for a Week 3 contest, a scheduling wrinkle coaches say could be either a distraction or a momentum opportunity for the Sun Devils.
