Trap games for every SEC team - Texas A&M Aggies

530. Prediction. Week 8. 535. agfdfdadfgasdfsdf. Oct. 19

Texas A&M football fans need not be reminded of the troubles that the Ags have had in Starkville. Many an Aggie team has rolled into north Mississippi much more talented than their Bulldog opponents only to be humbled over the course of three and a half hours.

All of this has culminated in a 2-4 record in Starkvegas since the Aggies joined the SEC. In all but one or two of those games, A&M has had the more talented team, but there’s some dark magic at work that somehow prevents them from winning as often as they should.

The last time the Aggies played a first-year head coach in Starkville, though, they won handily—28-14 in 2020 in a game that should have been closer to 35-7 had it not been for a ricochet interception that went for a MSU TD. Even in a win, the bad juju in Starkville still leapt up and bit the Ags.

The Aggies thankfully get this one following a bye week, though that was usually no help under the previous regime. The Bulldogs, on the other hand, will be coming off of a trip to Athens… no fun. This sets up better for Texas A&M than it has in years past, but you always have to have your head about you when you take a trip to play Mississippi State.
