Gamecocks-Aggies Series History

Saturday will be the 11th all-time meeting between South Carolina and Texas A&M. In 10 previous games, the Gamecocks are just 1-9 in the series. However, USC won the last game in Columbia 30-24. Like this Saturday’s sellout, that 2022 contest was at night in front of a capacity crowd.

Named after a University of South Carolina student who fought in the Battle of the Alamo, the annual winner between Carolina and A&M takes home the Bonham Trophy.

What to Know about Texas A&M

  • The Aggies are 7-1 overall and 5-0 in the SEC. They are 2-0 on the road.
  • TAMU won last weekend at home against LSU, 38-23.
  • South Carolina lost in College Station last year, 30-17.
  • Head coach Mike Elko is in his first year with the Aggies. He was 16-9 in two years at Duke
  • Texas A&M has had a quarterback controversy recently. Marcel Reed appears set to start, but previous starter Conner Weigman could play. Reed has not thrown an interception this year and is a legitimate running threat.
  • Aggies running back Le’Veon Moss ranks 22nd in the country in rushing yards. As a team, Texas A&M is 10th nationally in rushing.
  • In contrast to the strong ground attack, A&M struggles passing the ball. Mike Elko’s team is 113th in total passing yards.
  • Running back Rueben Owens, defensive back Tyreek Chappell, and offensive linemen Chase Bisontis, and Mark Nabou, Jr. are all listed as “out” this Saturday.
  • Wide receiver Jahdae Walker will miss the first half of the Carolina game after a 2nd-half targeting flag against LSU.
  • A&M is 19th nationally in points allowed.
  • The Aggies are 18th in rushing defense and 91st in the country in passing yards allowed per game.
  • South Carolina running backs coach Marquel Blackwell was the running backs coach at Texas A&M last year.
