Who should Texas A&M football fans want to win in LSU vs. Alabama?

The Aggies have already beaten LSU head to head, and they do not play Alabama, so it would behoove them more for the Tigers to win. LSU is the team most likely to make the championship game that A&M matches up the best with, in my book, so I'd prefer they go undefeated the rest of the way and the Ags face them in Atlanta.

This result would lead to an interesting conundrum for the committee, though. A&M could be jumped by LSU by virtue of their win over Alabama, given that the Tigers are directly behind them in the rankings at the moment. I doubt LSU would stay static relative to the Aggies in that case.

It will all shake out at the end of the season, though—and Alabama would fall behind A&M in that case, which would lead to a wash.
