The No. 19 Cavaliers try to bounce back against the Tigers in the Gator Bowl. Virginia missed its chance at a College Football Playoff berth with an overtime loss to Duke in the ACC title game. Missouri won the only previous meeting, 31-7 in 1973.
The unbeaten No. 3 Aggies face the No. 16 Longhorns in a Lone Star Showdown tilt. Texas A&M finds itself in the driver's seat for both an SEC title-game appearance and College Football Playoff berth after starting 11-0 for the first time since 1992.
The No. 3 Aggies (9-0, 6-0 SEC) line up against the Gamecocks (3-6, 1-6) at Kyle Field. South Carolina won two of the last three meetings, but is 0-5 when facing Texas A&M at College Station. The Aggies are 9-0 for the first time since 1992.
The No. 7 Aggies host the No. 10 Hurricanes in the College Football Playoff's first round. Texas A&M saw its undefeated season, and its chance at the SEC title, spoiled in a Nov. 28 loss at Texas. These programs traded home wins in 2022 and 2023.
