Of Texas A&M's three games against non-"power five" opponents, Saturday's contest against UAB will be the toughest.
The Blazers are 9-1 overall, ranked in the coaches poll and already clinched their spot in the Conference USA championship game.
They also represent the Aggies' most expensive nonconference game this season. UAB is set to earn $1.6 million for making an appearance at Kyle Field, according to a document obtained through an open records request.
It's the most any A&M opponent during the last three seasons has earned. In 2016, New Mexico State (Sun Belt Conference) made $1.
