  • Many of the Aggies involved in the Greatest Moments of Aggie Football bracket will be spotlighted as a part of the pageantry of game day at Kyle Field.
  • A commemorative 125 Years of Texas A&M Football logo has been developed which will on the helmet of the 2019 Aggies, featured at the 25-yard lines of Kyle Field throughout the 2019 season and will adorn the entrance to the Aggies’ locker room.
  • Limited edition souvenir stadium cups will be sold at Kyle Field featuring great moments in Texas A&M Football history, including the first-ever touchdown scored by the 12th Man and the Aggies’ epic seven-overtime victory over No. 8 LSU to end the 2018 regular season.
