Kyle Field at Texas A&M ranks in the middle of the pack among pregame destinations in SEC
The SEC is the best and most consistent Power Four conference when it comes to play on the field and a case could be made that it is at the top when it comes to off the field shenanigans as well. Texas A&M was recently featured in the third annual “SEC Pregame Destination Rankings” compiled by bookies.com. The list was based on four categories: location, tailgating, entertainment around stadium and family sentiment. The Aggies were slotted seventh overall among the 16 programs in the conference. While the ranking isn’t poor, it is a downgrade from last year, when Texas A&M finished fifth. “The pregame action in College Station begins the night before games with the Midnight Yell, and it keeps going to kickoff,” Adam Thompson wrote. “To no surprise, A&M ranks top five in entertainment options and in overall location, with all the action near Kyle Field. Scores were above the average for families, too.” The Aggies‘ results by category are the following: location (5th), tailgating (10th), entertainment (4th) and family sentiment (8th).
