Things got testy between the Texas A&M Aggies and LSU Tigers ahead of Saturday's kickoff in College Station.

LSU head coach Brian Kelly praised the Aggies for what they've done this season but it's clear the Tigers aren't afraid of the daunting task of heading into Kyle Field.
"Going to College Station is certainly a challenge," Kelly said. "Mike Elko is doing a great job with this football team in his first year," said Kelly. "They have won six straight games, they lost their opener and since then, they have played better and better each and every week. They're running the ball very well, over 200 yards a game, and they're very balanced on offense."
No. 14 Texas A&M and No. 8 LSU will kick off at 6:30 p.m. CT.
