Coming off of a 17-9 victory over, then, No. 13 Miami on Saturday night, Texas A&M jumps up one spot to No. 23 in the latest AP Top 25 poll.
The Aggies’ prime-time victory was fueled by cleaner special teams play – Miami muffed a punt in Aggies’ territory, leading to a touchdown, and missed two field goals (one blocked) – a strong defensive performance by a thin unit, and a great individual effort by Devon Achane who made impact plays as a rusher, receiver and kick returner.
The top-7 saw no change this week with Georgia, Alabama, Ohio State, Michigan, Clemson, Oklahoma and USC rounding out the top-7 in that order.
The Aggies open up SEC play versus No. 10 Arkansas on Saturday evening, 6:00PM CT, in Arlington, TX, at Jerry World.
