Key Matchups: No. 17 Texas A&M at Mississippi State

A&M RB Devon Achane vs. MSU LB Nathaniel Watson

Not surprisingly, the speedy Achane has emerged as the primary threat in the A&M offense. He’s rushed for 355 yards and three touchdowns. Often, he’s either jump-started the Aggies offense or was the only offense to speak of. It’s no secret A&M must run effectively to have a chance to win on Saturday. Containing him requires the entire defense, but Watson will lead the way at middle linebacker.
