The Texas Longhorns’ football program will travel to College Station this week for the first time since 2011, when Texas A&M (and Missouri) left the Big 12 Conference for the Southeastern Conference. The winner of Texas and Texas A&M’s rivalry will play Georgia in the SEC Championship.
Ahead of the both programs’ key meeting, Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko, who’s in his first season leading the program, shared a few of his thoughts on the Longhorns’ team, according to On3.
“This game was always going to mean something,” Elko said, referring to the stakes at play for Texas and Texas A&M.
