Texas A&M's First Three OpponentsSep 28, 2024; Arlington, Texas, USA; Texas A&M Aggies coach Mike Elko looks on at the field prior to a game against the Arkansas Razorbacks at AT&T Stadium. | Matt Guzman-Texas A&M Aggies On SI All three opponents that are on A&M’s schedule to start off the season are going to be intriguing in different ways for head coach Mike Elko's group. Opening up, the Missouri State battle will be one that will get all the nerves out of the players and have them in a better mindset for a major non-conference game the following week, but before looking ahead, they have to hone in on getting the A&M offense in sync with each other under new offensive coordinator Holmon Wiggins. The first three Saturdays are locked in. #GigEm | https://t.co/vjh5s6JY9R pic.twitter.com/Kj46zwnM2B— Texas A&M Football (@AggieFootball) May 27, 2026That goes for the defense as well, which has to be creative in racking up plenty of stops on the defensive side under new defensive coordinator Lyle Hemphill. Missouri State just hired a new head coach who formerly worked at SMU, so the new system that Casey Woods runs might surprise many people, and it might not. It all depends on how his players execute, with over 70 percent of last year's team returning. Not an easy task for A&M, but not one they cannot handle. There’s also an Arizona State team out of the Big 12 that enters the picture in Week 2, with a solid roster that will be a tougher matchup than many people think. It is not being talked about enough about what Kenny Dillingham has done recently with his program, even though it wasn’t a playoff season for him after making it to the College Football Playoff two seasons ago. He has revamped his team with a ton of weapons on both sides of the football that will be hungry to add that early-season win to their resume, which would significantly boost the program's confidence, especially after a down year with an 8-5 record. Another game that might catch the headlines is the one with Kentucky. It is the first SEC opponent that A&M gets its shot at to work its way to the top of the SEC standings. This could be the game that sets the tone for the rest of the season and generates a lot of attention, with so many storylines surrounding this contest. It will be the first SEC road game for the Wildcats' new head coach, Will Stein, and will likely be an opportunity for the junior quarterback transfer from Notre Dame, Kenny Minchey, to showcase the goods he has against quarterback Marcel Reed.
