Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko took aim at Lane Kiffin over the Ole Miss head coach's previous complaints about the number of night games other SEC teams have played.
Texas A&M will host New Mexico State Nov. 16, and while the Aggies enter the game as overwhelming favorites, the game's start time could be a point of contention for one SEC coach. Kickoff for the game between Texas A&M and New Mexico State is scheduled for 7:45 p.m. ET. Texas A&M has grown accustomed to playing under the lights at its home stadium this season, where the team has played three primetime contests.
Kiffin has been candid about his displeasure when it comes to watching LSU play multiple primetime games at Tiger Stadium, better known as Death Valley. The Ole Miss head coach compared LSU's night games to the amount of time the Rebels have been scheduled in the early window on Saturdays.
Elko and the Texas A&M Aggies are coming off an upset loss to South Carolina, and Texas A&M had a bye last week. The team was slotted in the 15th spot in the latest College Football Playoff rankings and can ill afford to drop a game this weekend.
