NM State faces tough challenge against No. 15 Texas A&M
This weekend, NM State’s football team will face its toughest test of the season as they travel to College Station, Texas, to take on the No. 15 Texas A&M Aggies. The game is scheduled to kick off at 5:45 p.m. MT and will be aired live on the SEC Network.
NM State is coming off a strong rushing performance and will look to use their run game to secure a win after dropping the last two contests. A victory over Texas A&M would mark their second win in program history over an SEC team and their first win over a ranked opponent since 1999.
Following the matchup with Texas A&M, NM State will close out its season with back-to-back Conference USA games against Middle Tennessee and UTEP.
The Aggies’ strong performance in rushing against Western Kentucky marked their best rushing game of the season, led by Mike Washington and Seth McGowan. The team will look to build on this success as they take on Texas A&M.
Senior kicker Abraham Montaño has been a standout player, making impressive kicks including a 57-yarder that ties the program’s longest kick in history. Meanwhile, defensive end Kale Edwards had a standout game against LA Tech with four sacks.
With a record of 1-33 against SEC opponents, NM State will look to defy the odds and secure a victory over Texas A&M. Fans can catch the game live on the SEC Network and listen on 99.5 FM KXPZ or the TuneIn App. This matchup presents an exciting opportunity for NM State to showcase their skills against a top-ranked opponent.
