SEC Unfiltered predicts Texas A&M football's 2026 record

Summary

SEC Unfiltered projects Texas A&M will finish the 2026 season with a 9-3 record, including losses to Alabama, Oklahoma, and rival Texas. Coach Mike Elko enters his third season expecting challenges from a new 9-game SEC schedule that includes difficult road games. The Aggies return 65% of their 2025 roster and add significant transfers, with tight end Micah Riley noting the 2026 recruiting class is the most talented he has seen. Quarterback Marcel Reed aims to improve his performance after a career-high passing yardage last season, while the defense seeks to replace standout Cashius Howell with Northwestern transfer Anto Saka. Predictions suggest A&M may struggle to finish strong again this season, as they did in 2025.
