Texas A&M Football: Ranking 2021 opponents by toughness

2. LSU

A trip to Death Valley is never an easy task, especially not for the Aggies who have struggled with LSU as much as a team like South Carolina and Arkansas has struggled with them.

I am not sure what to make of LSU this season, but playing them on the road will be hard and that is why they are so high on this list. They are a wild card for the Aggies this year and while I think they should have the upper hand with the experience across the team, the inexperience at quarterback could easily be a downfall for the Ags.

1. Alabama

Okay, so this one is a no-brainer. Alabama will have a new quarterback, but that never seems to stop them from dominating anyone and everyone that comes into their path. Is the fact that this game is at Kyle Field going to help the Aggies?

Maybe, but that won’t make this matchup any easier as Alabama has shown year after year that they continuously reload and are able to dominate. Texas A&M football will have to be firing on all cylinders come October 9th to win this game and if they happen to pull it off, they will be winning the SEC West, no questions asked.
