It will be a battle between two of the Lone Star State’s best college football teams, and in a state where the sport is considered more or less a religion, it would not get any bigger than Texas vs. Texas A&M. These two Texan teams will be taking on one another for their respective final games of the season, and this could have some big playoff implications.
While the Aggies are probably making the CFP, the Longhorns are still on the hunt, and a win over their state rivals could catapult them to the playoffs. But first, who will be out and who will play?
Texas vs. Texas A&M Injury Report
Texas Longhorns
Anthony Hill Jr. – Questionable
Hill broke his hand against Georgia in Week 12 but is on the mend and may possibly return against the Aggies.
Ty’Anthony Smith – Out During First Half
Smith is not really injured, but he had been flagged for targeting during the game against Arkansas and will be out, but only during the first half.
Texas A&M Aggies
Scooby Williams – Out
Williams is missing his second straight game due to an undisclosed injury, but he has shown signs of improving.
Le’Veon Moss – Out
This will be the fifth straight game that Moss will be missing due to an ankle injury.

Texas vs. Texas A&M Prediction
While Texas may be on a roll, with Arch Manning coming off his best game of the season so far, there is a reason why Texas A&M is the No. 3 team in the country. This one will go to the Aggies.
