COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Texas A&M (2-0), ranked No. 5 in the coaches’ poll and No. 7 in the Associated Press poll, will be looking to get its offense on track with a new quarterback, Zach Calzada, on Saturday morning (11 a.m., SEC Network, 770 AM/96.3 FM) against 2-0 New Mexico, a 30-point underdog.
Calzada will be making his first career start in place of Haynes King, who sustained a broken leg early against Colorado last week. Calzada then led the Aggies to a 10-7 win. It was A&M’s 10th straight win, tied for the second longest win streak in the nation with Oklahoma behind Alabama (16).
