Texas A&M vs. UNC Bowl Prediction No. 5 Texas A&M takes on No. 13 North Carolina in the Capital One Orange Bowl at 8:00 p.m. ET on Saturday night on ESPN. After the Aggies were left out of the college football playoff field, will they suffer a letdown tonight versus the explosive Tar Heels? Game Snapshot Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens, FL 8:00 p.m. ET, Saturday, January 2, 2021 TV: ESPN Texas A&M Aggies Game Notes Texas A&M senior QB Kellen Mond completed 26-of-32 passes for 281 yards, one touchdown and an interception in Saturday’s 34-13 victory over Tennessee. Mond (6'3/217) added 59 yards and a touchdown on the ground, the Aggies’ first score, courtesy of a five-yard scramble on second-and-goal where Mond drove through a Tennessee defender at the goal line. With Tennessee doing a good job against RB Isaiah Spiller -- holding him to 3.4 YPC on 26 attempts -- Mond’s additional contributions on the ground were especially welcome. Mond is headed to the Senior Bowl after this season. He flashes Day 2 upside, but he’ll have to answer for accuracy issues and some wonky decision-making (today’s interception in the red zone was airmailed to a Tennessee defensive back with no Aggie in the vicinity) that have plagued him at times during his career. With the win, the Aggies improved to 8-1. Sitting at No. 5 in the current playoff rankings, A&M will be rooting for Notre Dame and Alabama this evening.
