Texas A&M Opens As Major Favorites vs. New Mexico State
The Texas A&M Aggies are coming off of a much-needed bye week, following their embarrassing blowout loss to the South Carolina Gamecocks.
Fortunately, it appears that Texas A&M will have more than one week to get things fixed before returning to SEC play.
This weekend in College Station, Texas A&M will host the 2-7 New Mexico State Aggies at Kyle Field, and will enter the matchup as 40.5-point favorites, per Fan Duel.
In other words, it should be about as close to a second-consecutive bye week as Texas A&M can hope for.
“I think you’re at that point in the season where the wear and tear and the physical pounding is something that’s real,” head coach Mike Elko said last week. “Getting our guys back so that we can finish fresh and strong down the stretch is going to be important. Obviously, making sure we understand that we’ve got to stay sharp through the bye week. I think we didn’t do a great job at that against Mississippi State. I thought we started really slow and poor against Mississippi State.
The two Aggie teams have faced off just one other time in the respective program histories, with Texas A&M taking home a 52-10 win in 2016.

LAS CRUCES, N.M. — An ‘imposter nurse’ in Las Cruces is facing 34 charges after nearly causing the death of a patient and illegally giving medications to patients under 18 years old.
A Doña Ana County grand jury indicted Margarita Gonzalez. She is accused of assuming the identities of nurses in Texas to get hired at four nursing facilities in Las Cruces:
- Village at Northrise
- Las Cruces Wellness and Rehabilitation
- Peak Behavioral Health
- Matrix Home Care
The New Mexico Department of Justice’s Medicaid Fraud and Elder Abuse Bureau investigated and discovered instances where Gonzalez illegally gave injections and dispensed prescriptions, including narcotics to eight inpatient residents under 18 years old.
An investigation also found Gonzalez was also about to allegedly give “an incorrect insulin dose” to a patient that they claim could’ve killed the patient if another nurse hadn’t caught the error.
Several facilities fired Gonzalez over patient safety concerns and an observed lack of knowledge.
“Impersonating a healthcare provider is a reckless and selfish crime that subjects those most vulnerable to risk of serious injury or death,” Attorney General Raúl Torrez said. “I will not tolerate those who risk the safety of patients or cause danger and unnecessary confusion within the healthcare system. These charges should keep anyone attempting to pose as a healthcare provider on notice: we will find you, and we will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law to protect New Mexicans.”
Gonzalez’s charges include identity theft, nursing without a license, abuse of a resident, distribution of controlled substances to a minor and fraud totaling over $25,000.
If convicted on all counts, Gonzalez could face up to 100 years in prison.
