How to watch Nevada vs. Texas A&M on TV or online, plus 3 things to know

The Aggies are 2-0 in impressive fashion, and made quick work of Ball State, 56-23. The offense is functioning at the typical pace we're used to seeing under Kevin Sumlin, although the quarterback reps are still being divided between sophomore Kyle Allen and freshman Kyler Murray. Freshman wideout Christian Kirk seems to be stepping into the role of the team's top playmaker, leading Texas A&M in catches (10), yards (149) and scoring with three touchdowns (two receiving, one on a punt return). On defense, new defensive coordinator John Chavis appears to be paying early dividends. The Aggies held Arizona State to just 17 points and 3.5 yards per play and have 20 tackles for loss through the season's first two weeks.

Nevada comes in 1-1, with a win over UC-Davis and a 44-20 loss to Arizona last week. The Wolfpack have rushed for at least 160 yards in each of their first two games this season, led by tailback Don Jackson's 215. It's the third season for head coach Brian Polian, and time for him to show if he can get the Pack beyond a .500-ish record. Replacing playmaking quarterback Cody Fajardo may be tough. Junior Hunter Stewart has just a 126.8 passer rating on the season thus far.

1. Awesome Twosome. Aggie defensive ends Myles Garrett and Daeshon Hall have a combined 18 tackles and six sacks thus far. Nevada still runs the Pistol Offense developed by legendary head coach Chris Ault, which means those two ends will be put in conflict a lot on zone read plays.

2. Bang Bang. As mentioned, Nevada still runs the revolutionary offense that its former coach developed. If you've never seen the Pistol at work, here's a tremendous SB Nation Longform piece on how the abbreviated shotgun attack has changed the game, infiltrating every level of football from high school through the NFL. A&M allowed 240 rushing yards to Ball State last week, so the Wolfpack may be able to find a little room.

3. Spreading the Love. Texas A&M has recruited incredibly well on offense, to the point that they have so many playmakers it's a bit of a challenge to keep them all involved. Last year's dynamic freshman, Speedy Noil, has been absent through Weeks 1 and 2. But per Sumlin, he could return to the field this week.
