Texas A&m Football Kyle Field

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — The No. 3 Texas A&M Aggies will host the South Carolina Gamecocks at Kyle Field this Saturday, Nov. 15, 2025. After defeating Missouri on the road last week, the Aggies aim to maintain their undefeated record (9-0, 6-0 SEC) against the struggling Gamecocks (3-6, 1-6 SEC).

Kickoff is scheduled for 11 a.m. CT and the game will be broadcast on ESPN. Fans can also stream the matchup live via the ESPN App, Fubo, or Sling TV.

Last year, Texas A&M faced a disappointing 44-20 loss against South Carolina, a defeat that haunted the team throughout the remainder of the season. This year, the Aggies are determined to avenge that loss. “We got embarrassed at South Carolina last year. It’s personal,” said linebacker Taurean York.

Coach Mike Elko stressed the importance of respecting South Carolina, despite their recent struggles. “We have to go play, regardless of what their record is,” Elko said, expressing confidence in his team while acknowledging South Carolina’s potential.

The Gamecocks will enter the game following a bye week, having faced some of the toughest teams in college football. Coach Shane Beamer noted, “I don’t really see a weakness in them.” South Carolina has a new offensive coordinator, Mike Furrey, taking over for Mike Shula, who was fired after the Gamecocks ranked last in the SEC in points and total yards.

The focus for Texas A&M will be on containing South Carolina quarterback LaNorris Sellers. York described Sellers as “built like Rob Gronkowski,” emphasizing the challenge of tackling him. Elko pointed out the need to account for standout receiver Nyck Harbor, who boasts impressive size and speed.

This rivalry has seen 11 matchups, with Texas A&M leading the series 9-2. The Aggies will look to extend their home win streak against South Carolina, currently at four games. Saturday’s matchup is crucial as the Aggies aim to solidify their position for the College Football Playoff.
