|---|---|
| TEXAS LONGHORN | +115 |
| TEXAS A&M AGGIES | -135 |
The Aggies are currently undefeated with an 11–0 record and 7–0 in SEC play, and will look to continue their run against Texas. They are leading the SEC standings, with Georgia trailing them by one game in second place, so they need to finish the season strong.

Texas A&M is probably still riding the momentum from its historic comeback win versus South Carolina on November 15, which was followed by a dominant performance against Samford the next week. Despite this great stretch of wins, the Aggies are only favored by -2.5 points for this game.
Longhorns Looking to Upset State RivalTexas is sitting at an 8–3 record, with slim playoff hopes for the rest of the season. They’ll be hosting this rivalry in Austin for the first time since 2010 and will need Arch Manning’s heroics to overcome this matchup.
Manning, who has huge weight on his shoulders, is crucial to his team’s success in this game. He already has 23 touchdowns, 2,763 passing yards, and 7 interceptions. Defensively, Cashius Howell has 11.5 sacks this season as their star defensive end.
This rivalry game promises to be a tight one, as the Aggies hold a slight edge with a -2.5 spread. The over/under for the game is 51.5, while the moneyline has Texas A&M at -135 and Texas at +115.
This will be a close game, but we feel the Aggies will continue their dominance this season with a win against Texas. Our pick is Texas A&M -2.5 (spread).
