Texas A&M (5-0) and Alabama (5-1) meet up in a Top Ten matchup at Kyle Field this weekend in a game that has been anticipated since the schedules were released.

The Aggies have a huge recruiting weekend scheduled and the result of the game will also have a major effect on the SEC West race.

According to Vegas Insider, the Crimson Tide have opened up as a three-point favorite over A&M. If the line holds, it will be the first time the Aggies are the underdogs this season.

In its first year in the SEC in 2012, A&M upset Alabama in Tuscaloosa in a game that likely won the Heisman Trophy for Johnny Manziel. The next year, the Crimson Tide won a shootout in College Station, 48-41. A year ago, though, the Aggies were blown out at Alabama, 59-0, and it's something the players and coaches remember.

The defense is vastly improved this season and the Aggies have been rolling on offense. With the two teams' histories against each other, this should be an entertaining game this weekend for sure.

Kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m. Central on CBS.
