ESPN FPI predicts Texas A&M vs. The Citadel in Week 7

ESPN FPI unsurprisingly gives the Aggies a 99% chance to defeat The Citadel on Saturday afternoon.

Texas A&M is set to host The Citadel in a critical SEC matchup on Saturday, after a recent loss to Missouri. Quarterback Marcel Reed has been struggling, leading to questions about his continued starting status, though he may still end the season as the starter. The Citadel's defense is weaker than Texas A&M's rushing attack, which could give the Aggies an advantage.

ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI) predicts a near-certain victory for Texas A&M against The Citadel, and with a challenging road game against Alabama looming, Coach Mike Elko is focusing on testing his quarterback options and utilizing younger players against a less formidable opponent.
