No. 3 Texas A&M Aims to End Decades-Long Drought at No. 20 LSU's Death Valley

Injuries to LSU starters Whit Weeks and Bernard Gooden raise concerns ahead of a key SEC matchup with Texas A&M.

  • On Saturday night in Baton Rouge, preseason All-America linebacker Whit Weeks and defensive tackle Bernard Gooden remain hampered by injuries as LSU Tigers prepare to host Texas A&M Aggies.
  • LSU Tigers, coming off recent losses including a defeat at Vanderbilt last week, face pressure to win and revive dwindling College Football Playoff hopes under Brian Kelly, LSU head coach.
  • Texas A&M arrives unbeaten with a 7-0 record and tied atop the SEC in Week 9, winning close road games over Notre Dame and Arkansas, including last week's 45-42 victory.
  • If LSU's run game is limited, Texas A&M Aggies' plan hinges on forcing obvious passing downs, as LSU has not produced a 100-yard rusher this year even in a 56-10 win over Southeastern Louisiana.
  • Reports that Texas A&M may offer Mike Elko an extension suggest a preventative move, with pundits citing Jimbo Fisher's 77.5 buyout as a costly precedent, Pete Thamel suggested.
