ESPN’s FPI has a prediction for Saturday’s SEC clash between Alabama and Texas A&M.
Both the Crimson Tide and Aggies are coming off of big wins this week. Alabama defeated Mississippi State while Texas A&M took care of business against Arkansas in Week 5.
However, FPI is favoring Alabama on the road this week. The model gives the Tide a 66.3% chance of winning in College Station on Saturday.
Jalen Milroe has played better in recent weeks and had a very strong showing vs. the Bulldogs in Week 5. He threw for 162 yards on 12 attempts and rushed for 69 yards and 2 touchdowns in the win.
Max Johnson is set to make his 2nd straight start for the Aggies at quarterback. Last week vs. Arkansas, he threw for 210 yards and 2 touchdowns.
Alabama last won in College Station in 2019. Overall, Alabama has won 9 of the last 10 meetings in this series and is 12-3 all-time against the Aggies.
Kickoff is at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon.
