Texas A&M quarterback Marcel Reed addresses preparation for Texas rivalry

Texas A&M quarterback Marcel Reed discussed his team's approach to the upcoming rivalry game against Texas during an interview on SportsCenter. The third-year Aggies program led by head coach Mike Elko has dropped back-to-back contests to the Longhorns since the rivalry was rekindled in 2024. Reed emphasized the need for consistent execution and internal focus rather than looking ahead to the late-season meeting at Kyle Field. After throwing for 233 yards and two touchdowns in the season opener against Missouri State, Reed remains a primary offensive factor for the team. The Aggies are currently preparing for their next matchup against Arizona State. Texas A&M aims to avoid distractions as they move through their schedule following previous losses to their in-state rival.
