2. Texas at Texas A&M

The renewal of one of the most storied rivalries in college football history comes in at No. 2 on this list (just wait to see No. 1 before you protest).

Texas and Texas A&M ended in 2011 when the Aggies bolted to the SEC from the Big 12.

Now, 13 years later, both teams will get to settle a decade’s worth of hatred on the gridiron.

In what looks to be a “this town isn’t big enough for the two of us” type battle, the winner here will put themselves in the best position to recruit in the SEC.

And for Jimbo Fisher and Steve Sarkisian, you know they both want this victory, over any other win they can get.

Pencil this in for College Gameday in what will hopefully be an instant classic.
