No. 8 Notre Dame Takes Off Reins on CJ Carr and Will Turn Him Loose Against No. 16 Texas A&M

Texas A&M aims to end a 13-game ranked road loss streak, seeking a key victory to boost playoff chances against Notre Dame's disciplined defense, says Coach Elko.

  • No. 16 Texas A&M will play No. 8 Notre Dame in South Bend on Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. ET, seeking a road win over a ranked team.
  • The matchup follows A&M's opening loss to Notre Dame in 2024 and the Aggies' desire for redemption after last year's frustrating campaign.
  • Notre Dame starts freshman QB CJ Carr for his second 2025 start, with coach Freeman willing to leverage Carr’s mobility to challenge A&M’s defense.
  • In his first start, Carr completed 19 of 30 passes for 221 yards, threw two touchdowns, ran for a score, and had one interception, while Aggies coach Elko commended his team’s toughness and clear sense of identity.
  • A&M must overcome a historic road win drought against ranked teams that ended last season to establish itself as a playoff contender this season.
