College Station, Texas-Texas A&M came into the game with UAB 2-0 and playing good football but that all changed today. The Aggies put up their worst performance of the year today and it cost them. It was also the first game in which the special teams failed to perform having a missed field goal and failing to return a kick after returning three in the first two games. Although the offense put up big numbers they turned the ball over 5 times were 4-7 in the redzone and 4-11 on third down. The Aggies defense was once again bitten by the big play bug as they gave up touchdowns of 76 yds, 73 yds, and 63 yds. Without those plays the A&M defense played solid but it was far from enough. After the game Coach Bryant had this to say," Changes are going to be made. I don't know when or what right now but we will see some monumental changes. Right now there isn't a lot we can do but come offseason we will be a new team mark my words. We aren't going to release highlights this week because we don't deserve any highlights. I'm incredibly disappointed in this team and it's efforts today." The Aggies will look to rebound next week in a huge rivalry game against the Mississippi State Bulldogs.
