The Miami football team won 41-23 in 2008 in its only previous appearance in College Station. That was the second of a home-and-home between Miami and Texas A&M that the Hurricanes swept. Texas A&M won the first meeting 70-14 in 1944. Miami won the only other meeting 34-17 in 2008. Both those games were in Miami.

The game on Saturday night had a lot of implications in front of a national audience. Miami is trying to make a statement in its first marquee game of the Cristobal era. Texas A&M is trying to rebound from a surprising loss to Appalachian State last week. Saturday night could also have implications for recruiting.
