The Texas A&M Aggies are thriving this 2015 and are looking to keep their unbeaten streak alive when they host the Arkansas Razorbacks at the AT&T Stadium tonight.
Texas A&M and Arkansas' rivalry dubbed as "The Southwest Classic" has been dominated by the Aggies in the past three meetings from 2012 to 2014, but overall the Razorbacks hold the lead in the all-time series 41–27–3.
The Aggies began their 2015 campaign with a big victory over number 15 Arizona State Sun Devils (38–17) and followed it up with successful outings against Ball State Cardinals (56–23) and Nevada Wolf Pack (4–27).
They would want to extend their winning streak to four games against Arkansas who have struggled in their last two games after winning in their opener.
The Razorbacks showed a dominant performance against University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) Miners with a 48–13 win in their first game in 2015.
But since then, Arkansas have been in a slide, losing a close battle facing Toledo Rockets (16–12) and dropping their second game in a row against Texas Tech Red Raiders (35–24).
Unfortunately, they will try to end the losing skid without some of their key offensive players, who are out due to injury.
Arkansas running back Jonathan Williams has been ruled out for the entire season with a foot injury while receivers Keon Hatcher and Jared Cornelius are facing ailments, Athlon Sports reported.
Leading the offense for the Razorbacks will be senior quarterback Brandon Allen who completed 62 of 92 passes for 916 yards and six touchdowns this 2015.
But Allen will have a tough task trying to facilitate Arkansas' offense as Texas A&M's defense have been one of the latter's strengths this season.
Athlon Sports stated in their report that the Aggies are leading the nation with 15 sacks, while only allowing 3.9 yards per carry.
Texas A&M also will counter Arkansas senior quarterback Allen with youth at the position.
The Aggies have three quarterbacks who already played this season led by sophomore Kyle Allen with freshman Kyler Murray and another sophomore in Jake Hubenak.
The game between Texas A&M and Arkansas will take place today, Sept. 26, at 7 p.m. EST. To watch via live stream, click here.
