Here's what to know about the series history between longtime rivals Texas and Texas A&M, including all-time meetings and head-to-head records:

Texas enters Saturday night as the No. 3 team in the current College Football Playoff rankings, on track to both qualify for the 12-team field and earn a first-round bye (given to the winner of each of the Power 4 conferences). The Longhorns will quickly lose that comfortable position with a loss Saturday night.

The die-hard Texas Aggie fans packed into half of the stadium at Kyle Field for their signature pep rally ahead of Saturday's big game. Usually held at midnight, Yell Practice was at 5:30 p.m. Friday with thousands of students in attendance.

Will Texas football leave College Station with a win over Texas A&M? We lay out the cases for an against a Longhorns victory.

No. 20 Texas A&M better not wallow too long because the Lonestar Rivalry is coming to College Station, and it’s turned up to 11. The Aggies, having just dropped an overtime heartbreaker to Auburn, host the favored Texas Longhorns with an SEC title game berth on the line.

Saturday’s Texas-Texas A&M game will be the 16th time since 1934, when the Southwest Conference began round-robin play, that the outcome will have a direct bearing on a conference championship. The winner on Saturday will reach the SEC title game.
