Rankings from AP Poll

The 1999 Texas A&M Aggies football team completed the season with an 8–4 record. The Aggies had a Big 12 Conference record of 5–3.

This rivalry game would unite the two schools for the year, due to the tragic collapse of Texas A&M's bonfire the week prior to the game. A sellout crowd was met with an awe-inspiring halftime performance from both schools.
