The Texas A&M Aggies were having a dream season until the Texas Longhorns knocked them out of the SEC Championship Game, but they have a chance to redeem themselves starting this weekend in the College Football Playoff against the Miami Hurricanes.
College Station will be buzzing on Saturday as the Hurricanes come to town in a highly-anticipated A&M game, as they will look to begin their quest to win a national title for the first time in nearly a century.
One of the biggest questions heading into the game, though, is whether star Le'Veon Moss will be playing after missing the entire second-half of the season due to an ankle injury.

While it appeared he might be fully ready to go for Miami, an update from the head coach, Mike Elko, has stopped fans in their tracks.
Moss is back in practice and going through the motions, but Elko has clarified it is a “wait and see” approach for the tailback, who was one of the team’s leaders early on in the season.
His biggest game of the 2025 campaign was versus SEC rival Auburn, where Moss stampeded for 139 yards on the ground and a touchdown. The game prior, against an elite Notre Dame Fighting Irish side, Moss rushed for three touchdowns in the team’s best win of the season.
The winner of Saturday’s contest between Texas A&M and Miami will face the defending champions Ohio State Buckeyes, on New Year’s Eve in the quarterfinal Cotton Bowl.
