Game 1 was about revenge, Game 2 is about downright proving they are the better team for the Texas A&M Aggies when they take on the No. 2 Texas Longhorns Saturday at Blue Bell Park in College Station.

In Jim Schlossnagle's first game back in College Station since his shocking departure nearly two years ago, the Aggies came out Friday night and endured a back-and-forth battle with their rivals that saw each team trade blows until the end, resulting in a 9-8 win for the Maroon and White.

A win Saturday would give them the series, which would result in Texas' first series loss of the 2026 season.
