Aggies host LSU on Thanksgiving in 2014; help crank up SEC Network

COLLEGE STATION – The Southeastern Conference released its 2014 league schedule this morning – and Texas A&M owns a couple of significant contests on the slate.

For starters, the SEC Network’s first game will feature the Aggies at South Carolina on Aug. 28, 2014 – a Thursday night. A&M then wraps up its regular season on Thanksgiving Day against LSU at Kyle Field. The kick time for A&M’s newest Thanksgiving rivalry has not been announced.

“Texas A&M and LSU has always been one of nation’s best rivalries,” A&M athletic director Eric Hyman said. “It has all the trappings of a great rivalry – passionate fan bases, bordering states, close proximity, unmatched traditions and history. College football’s rivalry weekend is the perfect home for the Aggies and Tigers.”
