Miami is set to travel to College Station to take on the Aggies in the first round of the playoffs on Saturday, Dec. 20. For Miami fans, it’s a chance to prove that they belonged in the playoffs the entire time.
ESPN’s SP+ is predicting a close game a narrow 29-26 win for Texas A&M.
Miami’s 3-point victory over Notre Dame in the season opener is a significant reason why the Hurricanes are in this position.
Texas A&M’s story couldn’t be any different than Miami’s. A&M held on to an undefeated season all the way till the last game, where they lost to their rival, Texas. Instead of being one of the four teams with a bye, the Aggies are lacing it up this weekend, hoping to keep their season alive.
Both teams are playing for something similar, to send a message.
For Miami, it’s about proving that they belong. It’s about showing that they were one of the 12 best CFB teams the entire season despite the intense debate with Notre Dame down the stretch.
For the Aggies, it’s about proving that they are one of the top teams in college football despite their Week 14 loss to Texas.
We’ll find out whose message rings true on Dec. 20 at 12 p.m. ET.
