College Station, Texas – The Texas A&M Aggies will take the field at Kyle Field this Saturday, October 4, 2025, as they host the Mississippi State Bulldogs for a highly anticipated “Black Out” game. Scheduled for a 6:30 p.m. CT kickoff, this matchup is significant for both teams as Texas A&M aims to maintain its undefeated record while Mississippi State seeks to improve its conference standing.
The Aggies, currently ranked No. 6 and boasting a 4-0 record, are coming off a bye week and are set to debut their alternate all-black uniforms during this night game. Fans are encouraged to wear black to enhance the atmosphere during the event, which features black end zones, black sidelines, and a black midfield logo designed to commemorate the “Black Out” theme. This marks a notable transformation at Kyle Field, which has previously hosted exciting blackout events.
Mississippi State enters the contest with a 4-1 record and is still looking for its first SEC conference win in over a year. The Bulldogs recently lost a close game to Tennessee in overtime, adding urgency to their next matchup. The past performances at Kyle Field have not been favorable for Mississippi State, which has struggled in previous trips to College Station.
Texas A&M’s defense is known for its strength and effectiveness within the Southeastern Conference (SEC) and will play a crucial role in the match against Mississippi State. The Aggies’ defense has been a highlight of their season so far, contributing to their undefeated status.
A&M’s Head Coach Mike Elko has introduced a unique initiative resembling a ‘coaches’ Cabo fund’, encouraging players to contribute for each penalty they commit on game day. This comes in light of Texas A&M being one of the most penalized teams in college football, with significant yardage penalties in earlier games.
Last year, Texas A&M’s “Black Out” game saw them achieve a notable victory against LSU, during which they showcased both their resilience and team spirit. Marcel Reed will quarterback the Aggies as they look to score early, and he effectively connected with KC Concepcion for a touchdown in the first half of the Mississippi State game. Although the Aggies initially struggled offensively, they managed to take the lead before halftime, finishing the first half with a score of 7-3.
In the second half, Reed found Mario Craver, who was vital in generating momentum for the offense, setting the stage for a series of unanswered scoring drives. Ultimately, Texas A&M secured a 31-9 victory against Mississippi State, scoring a total of 28 consecutive points in the second half. Mississippi State managed to score a touchdown at the end of the game, but the result firmly placed the Aggies at the forefront of SEC competition.
As Texas A&M looks ahead, they are set to face off against Florida, who recently upended the No. 9 Texas Longhorns. The upcoming games will determine the trajectory of the Aggies in their quest for a successful season.
