The college football world will turn its attention to Kyle Field Saturday night when No. 14 Texas A&M hosts No. 8 LSU in a crucial matchup for the SEC championship race.
The Aggies are dressing for the occasion, too. It’s a night game, so why not change things up for a big-time primetime game?

Texas A&M will be sporting an all-black uniform with a white script “Aggies” on the helmet when they take on LSU.
Mike Elko even urged fans to wear black.
Our captain, @TaureanYork5x and our 12th man @nana_b23 have spoken. Wear ⚫️ Saturday Night in Kyle. We need the 12th man this weekend. #GigEm

While the look definitely strays away from Texas A&M’s traditional maroon and white look that the Aggies have sported throughout their storied history, Aggie fans were ecstatic about the new alternate look.
LSU and A&M are the only unbeaten teams remaining in the SEC, which means Saturday’s winner will have the inside track to get to the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta at the end of the season.
Aside from the SEC race, the winner will also set itself up nicely to make it into the new and expanded 12-team College Football Playoff field.
Texas A&M and LSU kick off at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday night and the game will be televised on ABC.
