Texas A&M football fans can probably use a break for their favorite squad. 

After a top-10 ranking early in the year and the return of several players who helped the Aggies to the College Football Playoff in 2025, this year hasn't gone great. 

The 4-4 Aggies were an early victim to resurgent Kentucky football and suffered embarrassing setbacks LSU and Missouri. But A&M hosts Tennessee (6-2, 3-2 SEC) next month and could dash the Volunteers' postseason hopes with a win.

Then of course there's the biggest game on the calendar each year: A&M vs. Texas. Despite being just 1-4 in conference play so far, Aggies fans no doubt would love an opportunity to blow a hole in UT's season. A final-week A&M win could doom a Longhorns squad with little margin for error when it comes to the postseason. 

But what about this Saturday? Is Texas A&M in action during Week 9? And what's the rest of the Aggies' schedule look like? 

Does Texas A&M play this week? 

Nope. The Aggies have their lone "open week" or bye. Last week, the Aggies fell to Alabama on the road despite holding a lead. Next week, they'll play South Carolina.

Are the Aggies in line for a bowl game?

Texas A&M would need a few more wins to make a bowl. Right now, they're outside of most major predictors bowl projections.
