Both the Aggies (No. 13) and Tigers (No. 14) are 6-2 this season and both have three conference wins, most notably an upset of Alabama by Texas A&M. But Auburn, at 3-1, leads A&M (3-2) in the SEC West standings by a game.

Auburn has relied on quarterback Bo Nix for much of the season and the dual threat, who’s in his third year starting for the Tigers has been resoundingly fine. He’s got a career high in completion percentage at 62.2 percent, but has thrown for just 1,764 yards and nine touchdowns in eight games so far this season.
The far more impressive quarterback play has come out of College Station. Zach Calzada’s numbers might not be that much better than Nix’s (he’s got a lower completion percentage and more INTs, but more touchdowns as well), but rather it’s the fact Calzada wasn’t supposed to start this year for the Aggies and led them to an upset over then-No. 1 Alabama.

The game’s biggest implications are for the SEC West race, though. At 3-1, Auburn is in second place behind Alabama and if the Tide lose again and the Tigers win out, Auburn could find itself in the SEC title game for the firs time since 2017.
A&M’s road the title game as the Aggies already have two conference losses. So in addition to winning out, they’d need both Auburn and Alabama to lose again before the season’s over.
Here’s how to watch this crucial SEC West rivalry game for Week 10 of the college football season.
