  • Keep reading for the latest Missouri vs Texas A&M odds and predictions for CFB Week 6

The sole Top 25 SEC matchup in Week 6 of the college football season kicks off at noon ET at Kyle Field. Missouri enters this game with a 4-0 record after narrowly beating Vanderbilt at home in overtime. Texas A&M is 4-1. The Aggies have won four in a row, including two SEC wins, after losing their opener to Notre Dame in Week 1.

Texas A&M is 9-7 all-time vs Missouri and won their last meeting in 2021. Missouri has won seven of the last ten in this series, however.

This is a big game for both teams looking to make it into the field of the extended College Football Playoff bracket. See below for the latest odds for Missouri vs Texas A&M on Saturday and my predictions for this SEC bout.

Missouri Tigers +2.5 (-110) +110 Over 48.5 (-105)
Texas A&M Aggies -2.5 (-110) -130 Under 48.5 (-115)

Despite being ranked in the Top Ten, Missouri is listed as an underdog to Texas A&M in the latest college football odds. The Aggies are -2.5 vs the Tigers and with -130 odds on the moneyline, they have an implied win probability of 56.52%. After CFB Week 5, Texas A&M was -1.5 before moving to -2.5.

The total in this SEC matchup is 48.5. It opened at O/U 49.5 but has since moved down a point.

Missouri Betting Trends

Mizzou is 4-0 SU and 2-2 against the spread this season. They covered the spread in their first two games but failed to cover as favorites against Boston College and Vanderbilt. This is their first game as an underdog this year. The over is just 1-3 in Missouri games this season. Under Eli Drinkwitz, Missouri has struggled on the road vs power four teams. They are just 6-12 straight up in those games.

Last week’s bye week was much needed for the Tigers. They were tested against Boston College and then needed overtime to beat Vanderbilt at home. Now they have had an extra week to prepare for their road test against Texas A&M. Missouri’s offense is loaded with talent on paper from quarterback Brady Cook to wide receivers Luther Burden and Theo Wease, but that talent has yet to translate to the field. Their balanced attack has gotten off to a slow start, and now they face a tough Texas A&M front seven.

Missouri’s defense lost a lot of talent from last season, but through four games, they have not skipped a beat. They allowed zero points scored through their first two weeks and have caused havoc all season. They currently rank they rank eighth in total yardage allowed, eleventh in passing yards allowed, and 34th in rushing yards allowed. This will be their toughest game yet, as Missouri’s strength of schedule has been lackluster.

As an important aside, Missouri sports betting apps are currently not available legally in the state but a launch sometime before the start of the 2025 college football season is expected.

Texas A&M Betting Trends

Texas A&M has covered the spread just once in their five games played this season. They have been favored in every game they have played and are short favorites again on Saturday vs Missouri. They are 0-4 ATS at home. The under has hit in two straight games for the Aggies and is 3-2 overall.

After losing a close game at home vs Notre Dame, Texas A&M has looked a lot better on both sides of the ball. Starting quarterback Conner Weigman got hurt, so the Aggies turned to freshman Marcel Reed. Reed has been good for the offense, contributing 585 passing yards, six passing touchdowns, and zero interceptions. He has also added 230 yards and two touchdowns on the ground in his four games of action. Texas A&M wants to run the ball and rank 21st in the country in rushing yards per game with 231.6.

The defense, and especially the front seven, is loaded with talent, and we are starting to see that talent come to fruition. They allowed Notre Dame to run the ball all over them in their first game, but in their last three games, they are allowing just over 80 rushing yards per game.

Missouri vs Texas A&M Predictions

So far this season, neither offense has shown much explosion. That should continue in this SEC matchup as both defenses are talented. Missouri has a balanced attack on offense, and will likely try to establish the run on the road behind their strong offensive line. Mizzou’s offensive line vs Texas A&M’s improved front seven will be the matchup to watch on Saturday.

Texas A&M is eleventh in the college football rush rate, so they will also be looking to establish the run. Missouri’s defense against the run has been good, but they have struggled against mobile quarterbacks. Vanderbilt’s Diego Pavia just ran for 84 yards on Mizzou in their last game.

I expect the clock to be running most of this game. With both offenses lacking explosive plays so far this season, I do not see a lot of points being scored. Both teams have talented defenses, so yards will be difficult to come by. It is a noon kickoff, so the atmosphere at College Station will not be at its fullest potential, but it is still one of the toughest places to play in college football. This game should be hard-fought, low-scoring, and come down to the wire. I like the under in Missouri vs. Texas A&M.
