In a year when the SEC West is as unpredictable as ever, Texas A&M and Arkansas face each other in their highest-profile game to date. Both teams are coming in ranked and undefeated, and the Aggies hope to leave 4-0, while extending their winning streak over the Hogs to five games in a row.

How will the momentum from Texas A&M's historic comeback carry over? Who will guard Buddy Hield? Can the Aggies cement their place in school history? From the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., Olin Buchanan and Logan Lee chime in ahead of Thursday's huge matchup.

How will Texas A&M begin its pivotal two-game stretch and determine its season? Who will start at quarterback? On Saturday the Aggies face Derek Mason's defense with one focus in mind: the search for 'No. 8'.

It's the last game at Kyle Field until another season comes and the final "tune-up" date on the schedule before Texas A&M closes the season on the road against two SEC foes. From Senior Night to the QB situation, there's plenty to watch from the Aggies against WCU.

Last season a struggling Texas A&M team pulled off a stunning upset in Jordan-Hare; this time around, the Aggies are firmly in the rankings and the Tigers are middling — but the A&M coaches and players are aware of the threat Auburn poses.

To say there are no intriguing storylines in Saturday's Texas A&M-South Carolina tilt would be to avoid looking hard enough. The Aggies are likely to start a new QB and the offensive schemes are undergoing change — just in time for the Steve Spurrier-less Gamecocks.

Seeking to remain in the thick of the SEC West race, Texas A&M prepares to return to the scene of two recent thrilling comeback wins: Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford. Awaiting the Aggies are Hugh Freeze's Rebels — and they may be at full strength in the trenches.

Future NFL first-rounders on both sides of the ball. Spavital vs. Smart. Chavis vs. Kiffin. Memories of 59-0. The storylines abound, but at its heart Saturday's clash of top-10 SEC squads is about something much simpler.
