Kent State vs. Texas A&M Football Series History

First meeting

Comments

Vandy, using a true freshman quarterback, came close to beating the Aggies in their 2020 opening game in College Station. Kent State sounds like a cupcake but when you look at the points they put up in 2020, that image of the Flashes changes. A&M paid a lot of money to bring Kent State to College Station. It would really suck to lose after paying that much money. Simply put, the Aggies can’t afford to sleep on the Flashes in a similar manner as they did Vanderbilt a year ago. A&M is loaded though, they should win.
