Texas A&M Sets CFP Debut vs. Miami at Kyle Field on Dec. 20

Elko says the focus has shifted to preparation with Collin Klein staying on play-calling duties through the playoff.

Overview

  • After the loss to Texas, the Aggies returned to limited work, are treating this week like a bye for recovery, and will ramp up intensity ahead of the first-round game.
  • Elko affirmed that offensive coordinator Collin Klein will continue to call plays through the postseason despite taking the Kansas State head-coaching job, noting the offense operates collaboratively.
  • With Klein departing after the season, Texas A&M has begun an offensive coordinator search, and reporting has linked wide receivers coach Holmon Wiggins as a candidate.
  • Coaches highlighted Miami’s defense as a major test, praising the Hurricanes’ disruptive edge rushers, strong front seven, and length across the back end.
  • Elko would not commit to RB Le’Veon Moss’s availability after his Oct. 11 ankle injury, with leading rusher Rueben Owens II prepared to shoulder the workload if needed.
