Texas A&M Football: 2025 Preview – Offensive Expectations

As Texas A&M enters the 2025 football season, there’s a renewed sense of excitement around the program’s offensive potential--as the Aggies boast the seventh-best odds of winning the SEC. The Aggies, after a few challenging seasons, are poised to finally take the next step thanks to a mix of experienced returners and emerging talent across key positions.

Marcel Reed: Poised for a Breakout Year

The most important storyline for the Aggies in 2025 is quarterback Marcel Reed. After a solid but not spectacular 2024 season, Reed has the opportunity to elevate his play. With a full offseason to build chemistry with offensive coordinator Bobby Petrino and a talented receiving corps, Reed is in a prime position to break out. The improved depth at wide receiver should give Reed a range of options to push the ball downfield, and he will be expected to develop into a true leader of the offense.

Running Back Depth: A Strength for the Aggies

Texas A&M’s running back depth looks to be one of the strongest in the SEC. Le’Veon Moss and Reuben Owens, both of whom have struggled with injuries in the past, are expected to be fully healthy and ready to contribute in a significant way. Moss showed flashes of his potential in limited action last season, and Owens is a versatile playmaker who could be a game-changer in the backfield. With healthy depth, the Aggies’ ground game should be a major asset in 2025, providing a balanced offensive attack that complements Reed’s passing game.

Offensive Line Continuity: A Strong Foundation

Texas A&M’s offensive line should be one of the team’s strengths this season. With the majority of the unit returning from 2024, the Aggies will benefit from continuity and experience. The offensive line has developed into a solid group in recent seasons, and the 2025 version is expected to be even stronger. This line will be crucial in protecting Reed and opening up running lanes for Moss and Owens. The combination of experience and depth up front could be one of the driving forces for Texas A&M’s offensive success this year.
