How Both Teams Got Here
Texas A&M is 2-0 with a 50-0 win over Missouri State and a 48-20 win over Arizona State. That second result is the useful one: a Power Four opponent beaten by four touchdowns.
Kentucky is 1-1. The Wildcats opened with a 45-13 win over Youngstown State and then lost 45-17 to No. 10 Alabama at home, a game that was decided by halftime.
What to Watch
Kentucky’s defense gave up 45 to Alabama in Lexington. Texas A&M’s offense has been at least as efficient as Alabama’s through two games and the Wildcats now have to face it on the road rather than at home.
The angle for Kentucky is tempo and possession count. Keeping this in the 40s on total points is the realistic path, because a track meet at Kyle Field ends one way.
