Texas A&M draws Nevada, one of the better programs in the Mountain West Conference, in its final tuneup before SEC play.
The Aggies made impressive work of Ball State in Week 2, winning 56-23 in a game more lopsided than the final score indicates. They should theoretically do the same to the Wolfpack, who last week lost 44-20 on their home field to Arizona.
But Nevada is a historically competitive mid-major that will give Kevin Sumlin's team a test. It's a lower level of competition than the Aggies saw against Arizona State and a much lower level than they'll see in the SEC West, but it's not like the Wolfpack are pushovers.
A&M better show up as ready as it did in Week 2.
Otherwise, it's asking for trouble.
