Despite having three losses, the Longhorns are still -- kind of, sort of -- hanging around the playoff conversation, but any slim hopes they have hinge on being the first team to beat the Aggies in 2025.

College Football HQ prediction

Critics have argued that Texas A&M is yet to be properly tested, earning that historic undefeated record against a slate of the worse-half of SEC opponents this season.

Texas is the highest-placed SEC team the Aggies will face this year, and while Arch Manning is coming off his best game, the A&M defense has the momentum to close it out on the road.
