The Athletic's Stewart Mandel recaps Rivalry Week in college football

Key notes from Stewart Mandel interview

• Texas A&M walked into a worst-case scenario between the committee dropping LSU to No. 2 the week before the game and the game last year in College Station. The LSU offense right now is a machine. You hoped to see more than seven points from A&M because the LSU defense has been vulnerable. I don't know how much of that is due to being unprepared versus getting beat up by Georgia the week before.
