Game week is finally here and it's time to take a look at 11 of the players that will be watched closely Saturday as Texas A&M opens the season with The Citadel at Kyle Field at 6 p.m.

The list is dominated by defensive players mainly because it is the Aggie's new 4-2-5 defense that will be under the most scrutiny this season, and Saturday is the first time fans will get a look at new defensive coordinator Gary Darnell's new system.
